I’ve had my iPad Pro 11 inch Cellular 256 GB since February and I just recently was holding it without the case it may possibly feel like the battery has swollen and the screen is a little high in the center and I’m just wondering if anybody else has had that same feeling if so please respond or reply below thank you

This seems very premature for a iPad having such a new battery. It has been 5 months yesterday since the launch. Other than that, mine is ok. But failures can occur especially due to the nature of a lithium polymer battery.

Every lipo will swell sooner or later. There’s a reaction that occurs in lipo that releases a gas that causes it to fill the enclosed battery.

Only thing I can tell you is to have it fixed by apple under warranty.

That’s definitely not normal…
 
It's not outside the realm of possibility that it's a bent device?

Maybe a picture would be good.

If the OP's iPad rests completely flat on its back on a flat surface, then odds are it's probably not a bent iPad.

Premature, sure...but not completely unheard of--the battery in my iPhone 6 Plus bulged within a year of my having purchased it.
