iPhone 8 making a strange beep sound

My iPhone 8 makes a beep sound from the speakers and partial vibration upon compressing the home button. It feels as if the pressure on the home button dictates how loud the sound and/or vibration is.

Holding down the button is how you activate Siri. The audio feedback tells you Siri is ready and listening.

Strange beep sound when holding down on a notification to expand it There is a strange beep sound my Iphone XS makes when i hold down on a notification to expand it or even hold down on text to copy and paste. I believe this has begun since i updated to iOS 14.7 I have checked the sound & haptics menu and Keyboard clicks/lock sound/system haptics are all turned off.
