(sorry for the bad English) Is normal for a iPad Air 2020 to have a shadow along the left side of the screen ?

I'm also having this issue on my iPad Air 2020 (bought a month ago, I'm living in Vietnam if that matters). I didn't notice at first when I first opened it straight out of the box and use it for several weeks. Until recently, I noticed that the left edge of the screen (the one that is not with the magnet for charging the Apple Pencil) seems different from the 3 other edges. I try googling these past few weeks but didn't see any picture with this issue, until now.
And it is as
Hey guys I just bought an ipad air 4. After opening it I realised that the screen’s edge on the middle of the right side (just over the pencil charger) is not flush with the metal body but slightly recessed. it is recessed to the point that when i applied a tempered glass, the screen protector at that point of the screen was flush with the metal body of the ipad whereas on all the screen edge all around the device the screen protector sits higher than the bezzle. Is this normal? Do your ipads have it?
said. My iPad also has it. When I focus my eyes to look at it, I can see that the upper-left corner and the lower-left corner is as normal as the 3 other edges. It's like only a portion of this left edge is pressed down, not the whole edge. And I had only noticed it after I just applied a new tempered glass screen onto the screen. So I don't know whether it was because of the tempered glass or the screen itself.
Hi everyone. Thanks for the replies. The iPad cames with the problem right out the box, I didn’t pay it attention at first, but it started to be annoying when using the iPad at the night. I use a lens and noticed that is not a problem of the pixels, is more like a problem with the screen lamination, screen seems to be bend behind the glass.
Anyway, I maked and appointment with apple service, I gonna keep updating.
Please do. I plan on having my iPad checked at the authorized Apple Care in Vietnam next week (I would rather have it checked immediately but due to Lunar New Year Holiday, it's impossible right now).
To tell the truth, I kinda satisfy with my iPad, until I notice this issue. The screen doesn't even have a backlight bleeding issue and it looked good until I notice this "recess edge" defect on the screen.
