HP Spectre x360 13.5 inch 2-in-1 Laptop PC 14-ef2000 (771X2AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

The lid of my new Spectre x360 14 (2023) creaks under even slight pressure, such as picking the laptop up or adjusting the screen angle.

Is this normal? I'm worried that it's indicative of a build quality issue. 

(Plus it sounds and feels cheap, which is not something I expect from a laptop in this range.)

My 2017 model is silent under the same tests.
