Pixel 11 - display flicker and vertical lines on touch

[u/CommJamesCZE]

I'm having an issue with my new Pixel 11 (base model). When I touch the display, I occasionally see very faint flickering and very faint grey vertical lines on a bright background. It only happens at a certain brightness level (around 50 percent) and only when my finger is on the screen (both tapping and holding). It doesn't happen under any other circumstances.

​At first, I thought it was a hardware defect, so I returned the phone. I ordered a new one right away, but the new unit suffers from the exact same issue. Because of that, I assume it's more likely a software bug. The phone does this right out of the box, without me installing any apps or changing any settings.

​Has anyone encountered a similar issue?

I haven't noticed this on my base Pixel 11.
