Description

When pressing the button often the display moves a bit leading to (1) the button press might not be recognized because you accidentally press the whole display down and (2) you can't see whether the press has been recognized because the angle of the display has changed so that you can't see it properly, especially in sun light.

Therefore it might be better if the connection to the display holder is below the button instead of the LCD display. We are aware that the best solution would require a complete layout change of the display module as the cable outlet must be repositioned, but maybe you can think of other improvements regarding this?

Research direction

Start by reviewing the current display holder, LCD display, button, and cable-outlet geometry in the case design. Explore whether the holder connection can move below the button without a complete display-module layout change; done means the display stays stable during presses and remains visible in sunlight.
