Is there something loose in my phone?

[marcogilbert]

When I turn my S20 FE upside down (top to bottom) I feel something moving inside. It is like a heavy piece was falling a little in a loose space in the phone. When I turn it back up I feel this thing moving back. It does not make any sound but it is kind of weird and I was wondering if any of you experience the same behavior?

AFAIK you shouldn't hear anything moving inside. The device has optical stabilisation in its cameras but you shouldn't experience that movement as "heavy". You can eliminate this by turning on the camera (which should enable the stabilisation system) and turning the phone upside down and listen out for your noise again. If you still hear it, then consider having the phone checked over by an authorised Samsung service centre. Have you recently had it repaired?

The camera is known to make a sound, especially if you shake the device about. Plenty threads on here from time to time complaining of hearing a noise when moving it around.
