Product: HP 15.6 inch Laptop PC 15-fc0000 (733M2AV)
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

Hi, i recently bought this laptop 2 weeks ago, the laptop works perfectly, but i noticed a subtle click when i close the lid around 60-70%. Its not loud, but i can also feel a slight click through the chassis when it happens. But after prolonged use 1-2 hours, the click becomes faint or barely noticeable. The hinge is stable and smooth, no wobble. Its just the click sound that im worried about, also there's a tiny 0.5 mm gap in the right side of the hinge its barely noticeable too.  Also there's no click sound if i open the laptop at 80 degree angle, only when i open it at 90 or higher, then there's the click sound, should i be concerned or its normal?
