As for its hard key layout, all of those buttons (volume, power and dedicated camera key) reside on the right, with nothing but a 3.5mm headphone jack up top and microUSB port at its base.
In many cases this is the only way to reach a function, the Z10 has a distinct lack of buttons around the edges of the handset (volume, power, and camera) and there are no buttons at all on the face of the unit.
On the right side you'll find a pretty standard-issue volume rocker and power button.

On the right is found the 3.5mm headphone jack, positioned atop a volume rocker and power button.

The chromed plastic volume rocker, power button and screen orientation lock switch nestled in the plastic radio reception strip at the top of the device are decidedly less luxurious, however -- the travel of each was shallow, and the finish on the plastic appeared a bit cheap to our eyes.

The steeply contoured sides are home to both the power button and volume rocker, but they didn't seem as awkward as the Xyboard 10.1's power button.

It's even less fun when you're trying to capture screenshots this way (read: by holding down the power and volume down buttons for a few seconds).
The power, volume, and camera buttons are on the edges, but they are cut into the edge, with the same depth and material as the edge.

The Z-Base systems can be programmed to respond to most remote controls, so a TV remote...or cable box remote...or satellite receiver remote...can control volume, mute, power and input functions.

It may just be an issue for right-handed people, but the buttons for power, volume and camera all lie on the lower half of the phone's right edge and are buried in the palm.
The only other noticeable breaks from the flush metal housing are a curious division surrounding the side-mounted dedicated hardware keys (power, volume rocker and camera button) and a flimsy flap on the opposite edge that hides ports for micro-HDMI and micro-USB.

Nintendo's Wii U tablet controller thankfully streamlines that process in a small, but tremendously meaningful way: during initial console setup, you're prompted to sync your television and the tablet controller, allowing the tablet itself to control the TV's power, volume, channels, and input directly.

Unlike previous Notes, the hardware keys (power button and volume rocker), IR blaster and S Pen all line the Note 8.0's right side, with a covered microSD port occupying the opposite edge all by its lonesome.
Located directly on the strip nestled between the top and bottom plastic pieces, the power button and volume rocker are set incredibly close to the body of the phone, which makes it more difficult to press.
On the right side are both the power button and the volume rocker, which are nicely textured and depress with a satisfying amount of feedback.
You'll find two volume buttons on the right and power on the left (give the screen a second or so to turn on after clicking the power button).
