This is amazing. I updated it as soon as I received it (this takes about an hour or so, be patient!), and it's absolutely perfect! No screen defects, no keyboard issues, and no dents. There is a teeny tiny scratch above one of the directional keys but it's so insignificant you wouldn't notice unless you went looking for it. I use it for research and writing and the battery lasts all day, no problem. I cannot believe the quality of this for the price, it's an incredible deal!
