The laptop has a few scratches on top of the cover. The screen works perfectly fine. To turn on the computer, keep it connected to the charger because that is it’s only power source as of right now. Other than that it works and performs as any other laptop. If the mouse touchpad gets slow and unbearable to use, I highly recommend to buy a separate mouse at your local electronic store. Before you use the laptop, make a Microsoft account since it’s recommended to access the laptop.
