is it a defect

Im a maxis iphone user, been using it for 185 days (i make a note in d note apps right afta i got my iphin ).
atm, i felt tat d home bttn is pretty sunked in. But, if you ought to look at its mechanic, it will likely reacts wen u pressed right in d centre of d button. few weeks afta i got my iphin, i spammed d home button n notice d responds time is somewhat slower from 'main page' to 'search' afta few times. I assume slow response is not just related to d sensitivity of d button but also d processing part.
Thus, my point is as everyone else would said, test everything, i mean everything on ur iphin within a week of ur purchased. d sooner d better. Warranty, satisfactory nowadays isnt as simple as it used to be. just my 2cents.

hi ppl, my iphone now have this similar problem after a year usage... not only has it sunk in but i have to press quite hard to get a response. can phone shops repair this kind of defect?

So far having my iPhone 3 weeks nothing happen just sometimes need to on/off my iPhone cause off keep stuck loading website lol guys know how to fixed it ? It's look like it can't detect ....

steven mayb you can try restoring your OS?

I have the same problem.. though the home button is not 'sunken' but it's getting harder and harder to press each day...

nowadays i always press the home button, then nothing happens, press harder the second time, still no response, then press hard hard the third time only got response =(

iori how old is your unit??
Actually I've been very gentle to my "Home" button since day one.. coz I afraid someday I might encounter this problem *kiasi*

Well if is still under warranty, go claim for warranty..

Claim warranty means 2-6 weeks without iPhone

sent it today. On the spot one to one exchange.

I believe you can get 1 to 1 exchange on the spot... they should have reserved stock for exchange
Gud luck...

Well, if I was in the situation I will definitely fire them up & down... Trying to put the blame on me...

My gf's IPHONE is having the sunken power button as well...
How often do you use the Power button??

can i know sunken power mean the button hard to touch ???

Wah... There are so much of problems about iPhone... I tot only i facing problem... Now i facing a problem ( not sure whether is tis a problem). There is a dried glue beside my screen(btw the screen and the shining border).

huh nobody answering my question T_T

the power button has sunk ( ie same level as the frame and its quite hard to press the button in to enter sleep mode )

Mine is maxis set, no prob.
But had a friend who bought from a shop.. Don't know where they get the phone from, the button sunken and battery bloated which makes the vibrate/sound button hard to switch. Need to press (hold) the screen and switch only can..
Don't know if the iphone is genuine or not.

lol called yr friend go to repair the iphone and check it >.< same maxis set nth hapen ^^ satisfy
