Galaxy SIt's been 2+ years since I have started using my S10 and still it's good as new. Haven't come across ANY hardware or software issues (that I need to worry about).

Galaxy SRegional production quality might be the problem. π€
Did you check the origin country and the date of manufacture by any chance when you bought the device?
You can check them with serial number and IMEI.
Serial number's 4th and 5th characters say the manufacturing year and month.
IMEI number's 7th and 8th numbers say the origin country.
Example in mine M2 means manufactured 2019 February. M is for 2019. 2 is February.
Alternatively you can dial *#12580*369#
When you dial there is a code named "RF cal". That is the exact manufacturing date.
In IMEI, in screenshot 10 means manufactured in Finland.
There is a chart for the country codes. I attached an image.
It is best to check those before you buy a Samsung.

Galaxy SI really can't think of another reason bro.
Finland made devices are just as good as the Korea made devices.
Unless your usage is pretty rough and you don't use proper protective measures (tempered glass and covers), the device hardware should last longer.
I am not using a cover as well (because the premium look goes away with the cover - but I hardly accidentally drop it), I use protective glass only.
It's best to give your device to a Samsung service center and get it properly repaired.
P.S. I am not sure if they cover this under warranty as it can be considered due to "physical damage".
