The speakers are pretty good but when the volume is set over 5 or 6 bars, the keybord and palm rest seem to vibrate. I can't help feeling it since I often put air on my laps to watch videos, with palm near trackpad.

I didn't see anyone bring it. Maybe it's just a faulty on my machine?
 
I haven't noticed it with mine.

I have noticed however that even on 1 bar its sometimes a bit loud. The minimum volume is louder than my old MacBook Pro.

I'd say maybe something is loose in yours? I'd wait until the store re-opens and take it in, could just be a speaker or something not quite tight and that vibrating is causing you to feel it through the trackpad.
 
Air 1 and Air 2 had excessive vibrations, it isnt out of the imagination to consider thus one does as well.

I do believe they stopped glueing stuff in the 2020 (and maybe 2018-2019) which could make it more sensitive to loose screws (e.g., even if a screw is loose with the stuff glued in - it won't move).

Does make them less painful to repair than if they had glue though.
