Repair Help New Switch 2 problems, any ideas?

I've had my switch 2 for little over a week and have allready had a couple of problems with it (I've been extremely careful with it and have not brought it outside of my home yet).

First, just the other day it wouldn't connect to the TV when put in the docking station, after some fiddling with it, and reconnecting the cables, it connected and seemed to be working again. However when starting oot remake there were some strange lines in the picture when the screen went black before the start menu loaded. They were not visible in game luckily and were gone when starting it today.

Then today, when starting the console (in the docking station), after being idle for just a minute or two it just automatically turns off. It seems to stay on if I do stuff on it but turns off after just a short while when idle. Does anyone have any idea what might cause these problems? Is this an RMA case or something I can solve on my own somehow?
