Annoyance - Noisy And Rattling Buttons
A lot of people have been complaining about the Home button clicking loudly and the Power button rattling when the iPhone 5S is shaken.
People who went to get replacements, or tested other iPhone 5S handsets, found the exact same rattle and click was present. It’s just the way they’re constructed.
Some people have reported a louder thudding rattle which could be caused by a loose battery.

Editor’s Note by Jeffrey Van Camp: From our experience using the iPhone 5S, the Touch ID Home button may have a slightly louder click and the power button does rattle if you put your ear up to the phone and shake, but these problems didn’t bother us. In fact, I never noticed them until I read that others were annoyed by it. As for the battery issue, we have not encountered it, but it is not normal and would be a serious problem.
Potential Solution:
Your only real option here is to take your iPhone 5S into an Apple Store and show them.
If it is a loose battery then they’ll be able to fix it, if not then you may have to learn to live with the ‘noise.’
