The bumps appear to be coming from the little metal tensioning tabs pressing against the back of the screen through the copper heat transfer tape a little too hard.

iPhone 15 has these tabs but only on the reinforced edges of the frame and Samsung doesn't use them at all for Galaxy S series

Bizarre design choice from Google to have the tabs press directly into the back of the screen...
