iPhone 12 volume button "mushy"

I recently bought the new iPhone 12 and I have started to notice that the top volume button is mushy feeling and isn't clicky like the rest of the buttons on the phone. What should I do?

iPhone 12, iOS 14

Hello,

If it concerns you, the next step would be to take it to an authorized repair center to have it checked:

Good luck.

The case I'm using doesn't cover the buttons so its not a case. I'm not willing to take it apart because its new. If it were an older device I would be open to it because I've done DIY repairs before but I fear voiding warranty and wrecking a new phone.

I should mention that the button still works, but is very annoying to not get the clicky feedback like the other buttons have. Is it worth getting a replacement or repair? Shouldn't this be covered under warranty?
