Switching to third person while moving causes the screen to flash an inaccurate camera angle for a split second. Sometimes the player animations also won't load correctly, which happens more frequently and noticeably with faster movement speed (tested with creative mode flight)

Switching between F5 Makes you able to xray, and makes the player's body rotate in a split second

Related to MCPE-179883, as the warning content message can appear with this bug at the same time.
Experiencing this in 1.21.0.20 Preview on Xbox Series X and would like to add that on top of the inaccurate camera angles and incorrect player positions it can also cause chunks to reload for a brief second, slight lag stutters, and other types of screen flickering. It's 100% based on toggling perspective while running, flying, or any general movement where your character is traveling block distance, as the issue doesn't seem to be experienced when toggling perspective while your character is standing still. I've attached several videos to this ticket
This is going to be such a nauseating issue when it makes it to the main game... hope a fix is coming in one of the next few 1.21 previews Mojang, please PLEASE don't make us wait.
Indeed made it to the main game and is very nauseating/an eye sore exactly like I predicted it would be. Hoping to god that Mojang takes the preview fix and squeezes it into a 1.20.80 hotfix so we don't have to wait until 1.21 full release. This is a pretty annoying issue.
WARNING to people who have photosensitive epilepsy due to this flashing bug, Can we have hotfix without having to wait for 1.21 to come out.
Can confirm.
