It's been almost 2 years since I bought the BTS edition S20+ (it's still covered under warranty). Lately, I've been experiencing a lot of heating issues and low battery life, which was fine, considering it's a 2 year old phone with a subpar Exynos processor.
However, the back panel is coming off!? I've never seen this in another phone IRL, save for online posts. Is this due to excessive heating? Would like your valuable inputs, and will also take this up with Samsung support, get it checked and fixed, as it's still under warranty.
Attaching pics.

No, it's the opposite side. Guess I'll have to use the camera more to make the other side pop out, too 😂😂

It's bad. I can't get through the day without charging my phone twice. It gives me anxiety, now.

I don't think so. This has been happening for the past 6 months or so. Even turning on GPS eats into a lot of battery life. And, of course, the phone is old. But, curiously enough, I only use it on battery saver, have almost never used AOD, and don't charge it above 80-85% since I've bought it. Most probably, it's the processor that's the **bleep** in the armour. And the phone heats up at the top portion only, when it's not charging.

I think your battery is swelling.

Very likely due to swelling of battery as mentioned above. Get it checked and replaced, if necessary.
