Why do you want to shake it? It's an $850 computer, not a bag of chip's.

Certain features and apps use a slight shaking motion. Also, I mean slightly shaking. It comes from the camera area. I believe it to be the OIS mechanism. Hardly noticeable when I open the camera app. I just checked and my older s3 and s4 do the same thing.

I hear a slight rattle, I think it could be the home button or any of the side buttons... with that said I probably never shake it again and don't really care that it rattles. You have to put it against your ear to really hear it.

Open the camera app and see if that helps.

I can hear mine with my arm fully extended in front of me.

It's the S pen

Mine is the camera. S pen is removed. I'm calling Verizon asap for an exchange.

I've seen the ois cause the rattle in other phones.

That's perfectly normal. Every phone with ois does that!

That's how u know its the ois is by opening the camera app it goes away.
