iPad IPad (any model) and loose/wobbly hardware buttons

[sunking101]

My iPad Mini 6 has wobbly volume and Touch ID/power buttons. If I touch them lightly but don't actually depress the buttons there is noticeable play.

Nobody else seems to discuss this loose button problem on the forum yet it is mentioned on the web and one guy said that all of his iPads exhibit the fault. Another guy said that 50% of Apple iPads and iPhones have wobbly buttons. Someone with a Mini 6 allegedly went to his local Apple store and the display model iPads of all sizes had loose buttons.

So here is an anonymous poll. If you have an iPad (or iPhone) with rattley/wobbly/loose hardware buttons please take a moment to vote. I want to see how prevalent this issue/non issue is.😊

I have a Pro 11, a Pro 12.9 and a Mini 6. No wobbly buttons. I don't think any of my iPads over the years had wobbly buttons.

No wobblies on my M1 12.9 or Mini 6.

I have to agree with @Rafterman. I’ve had many iPads (mini, pro, air, regular) throughout the years and have never experienced wobbly buttons. I don’t think that it is as widespread and therefore, not widely talked about here on MR.
