Creaking phone (sh.itjust.works)

My Pixel 9 Pro XL started creaking since last week and seemingly gets worse. I can notice it especially when I squeeze the lower half of my phone. But in normal day to day use it happens mostly when getting my phone out of my pocket or even sometimes when using the fingerprint scanner.

Is this normal? Should I wait or file a warranty case?

I'd look carefully to see if the battery is swelling.

Thanks. That was my first thought too but I can see no indication of that. And it would surprise me taking the phones age into account.

It probably wouldn't hurt to let Google know - partly because they might be able to help and partly so you have some sort of paper trail that you sought advice on the issue, and when.
