Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i hinge slightly misaligned out of nowhere. Worth sending to warranty? [Pics]

Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i hinge slightly misaligned out of nowhere. Worth sending to warranty? [Pics]

Hey guys,

I could use some help here. I recently bought a Lenovo Yoga Slim 7i (about 4 months ago max). The laptop is amazing, but a couple of days ago, I noticed a slight misalignment in the central hinge that connects the screen to the keyboard. I'm not sure if it came like this, but the left side seems a bit off compared to the rest.

I’ve never dropped it and I'm always super careful when carrying it around, I always put it in a sleeve before placing it inside my backpack, which theoretically should prevent this kind of issue, especially since it's so new.

My question is: do you think it's worth taking it to an authorized repair shop to get it checked out? Or is it just a minor cosmetic issue that won't affect the laptop's structure? My main concern is that this could get worse over time and cause bigger problems down the road. Since it’s only 4 months old and still under warranty, I'm wondering if it's better to deal with it now.

I'll attach some pictures below so you can take a look. Thanks!

obs: Sorry about my English, it's not my native language and I needed help translating.
