Should I be concerned about this mildly spicy pillow? (lemmy.world)

I only ask because the bulging seems slight enough that I'm not 100% certain that's not just how the battery is supposed to look.

This is inside a Lenovo ideapad flex 4. I only opened it to replace the hard drive.

Yes, that is a concern. Pictures of a new battery shows it to normally be flat or slightly indented in that area.

Bulging batteries are bad news, always replace

It’s not a concern until it is. Are you OK with it starting a difficult to extinguish fire in its current location? If not, you might want to get rid of it.

Just poke a hole in it to release the extra pressure! (Don't do this)
