I think I may have opened a link to a phishing email

I clicked on an email (on my Galaxy S10) that I though was from Google. Before I realized what it was I had ended up clicking the button in the email. When I clicked the button it didn't take me to another page or open my browser.
 Could anyone confirm if this is a phishing email? (The "be careful with this message" alert is there because this screenshot was taken after I reported it. It was not there when I got the email.)

If this is a scam please let me know what I should do.

@Meow222 From the info in the screenshots, that does not look like it is spam.

Did you reset the phone or sign in to a new device? Like@LongHiker said, it doesn't look like anything bad and it did not do anything because the email is marked as spam. Until you select report as not spam, some functions are disabled. But again, if you are not setting up a new device, it's probably spam. A phishing email normally asks for account verification. Potential malware for this one but it doesn't look iffy from screenshots.
