Q: What is this “cover” over the outlets?. How do you open? Mwill they tear over use?
A: The cover over the charging outlet pivots open easily when charging, staying attached, and then snapping closed after disconnecting the charger. I used a previous one for three years without it tearing off. The covers on the buttons do not come off. You can easily press them to change volume and take screenshots.
