I assume this in within “normalcy”, but I also know play has a tendency to become more playfull.

When I hold my 12.9 one handed, say lifting it from my lap with left hand in upper left part of the ipad, I’ve started noticing the glass moving within the aluminium frame. I don’t remember noticing this in the beginning though.

Ind you, I’m not purposefully waffling it about. It’s just normal lifting.

I’m definitely not noticing it from any other corners or spots, even if I try to provoke it.

It’s to small to go crying to my LAS yet…and I have Apple Care.

But anyone else notice this?

(Interestingly, the upper left corner is also where my iPad gets unusual hot at times. So don’t know if the play is a design feature because of heat, BECAUSE of the heat = expansion or completely unrelated…)
 
Without seeing it in a video it's hard to say but I've never experienced any issues and yes on iPhones and iPads the area around the camera and LiDAR sensor get hot. You really want to see it get insanely hot use the LiDAR sensor for a few seconds with the measuring tool.
