Why is my power button only working sporadically?

Power button only working sporadically.

My fiancee and I both purchased the s6 about 2 weeks ago. Her phone is working just fine. Mine, however, has an issue with the power button. It works very sporadically but about 85% of the time it isn't being recognized. I've contacted samsung and did a factory reset which seemed to work temporarily but once I restored all my contacts, apps, etc. it began acting up again. I'm wondering if it's a faulty app or something maybe? Anyone heard of an issue like this. Please help!

Re: Power button only working sporadically.

It sounds like an intermittent power switch (what can you expect from a 20 cent part). Have the phone replaced or repaired.
