I was using a cheap device the other day and it had: [◂] [xxx] [▸] Left button was UP and right button was DOWN (numbers e.g. temperature). Is there any reason that ◂ would be UP in Chinese?

Sort of. 上 means both up and previous, 下 means down and next. Maybe there was miscommunication about contexts when the button meant next and when it meant down in the UI.
