Way better than I expected.  Clean and no visible scratch from few inches away, looks almost new.  If not for the shiny spot on the touch pad, you'd think this laptop was unused.  Run a dead pixel test -- No dead pixel.Battery is  not really a concern for me because I intend to keep this laptop on my desk, always plugged.  The battery can be a brick for all I care.  Nonetheless, I run a battery report, it shows it can hold about 3.5 hours of continuous use.I purchased this mainly for music streaming.  It supports a sample rate of 32-bit 192kHz, and higher.  Hi-res audio.  If i get the same sample rate when I replaced Win10 with Fedora Linux, I'll be extremely happy.  Remains to be seen.There are some reviewers that say theirs died after a few months. So, the verdict on durability is still out.All in all, I am satisfied with the purchase.  Recommended.
