Received item exactly as described. For the price this is still a great value in 2024. Little to no scratches or blemishes on the exterior and the screen is flawless. The battery on this model can handle up to 1000 battery cycles. The one i received still has over 600 plus cycles left on the battery. This model is also still supported on the new MacOs Sequoia coming fall 2024 so you can expect support and updates for this model to continue through 2025-2026 hopefully.
