Hi I've got the same issue, I've only noticed it yesterday, because my power button got really soft. (Have the phone for over 1 month now) I blew air in the powerbutton with my mouth and it got clicky again for a short time. now it's back to butter. I guess there's dirt in there or so.

Volume Buttons are clicky like the first day I got it.

I'd really like to know what the issue is here. Can someone answer?

Ok found a really simple fix

Just apply some WD-40 and rub the Power button with it. It will free the very small gap between the phone and the power button from the small bits of dirt and gunk in there.

Now it's all clicky again, just like I bought it and it's like that for a few hours now.

The buttons tend to accumulate dirt along with the sweat from your hands which causes your buttons to get soft or stuck. An alcohol prep pad always worked for me when I realize that they're not as clicky as before.

I think is the design of the button flex because I try other note 5 and s6 edge + ,and they have the same problem.
