Why does my iPhone 16 screen starts flicker in pink when charging?

When Iphone 16 is plugged for charging , and the home screen is waiting to get auto locked, the screen starts flickering in pink. It is intermittent and in turns normal after taping on the screen. Is it hardware or software issue?

I had this same issue with the ultramarine stock wallpaper, as others suggested appears software, I haven’t seen any issues with other wallpapers, only the stock iPhone 16 wallpapers, appears to flash pink or the wallpaper turns pink just as the screen dims before auto locking, by sheer luck I was actually able to capture it on a screen recording and sent it too apple, I have changed wallpaper to my own one and after 24 hours not seen any issues since.
