Good	Light, minor scratches or scuffs from normal use, none deep. No cracks or dents. Fully working.
Fair	Heavier scratches, scuffs, or a small dent, but no cracks in the glass or screen. Fully working.
Cracked screen	Cracked or chipped screen or back glass, but it still powers on and the touchscreen works.

At inspection

Common Microsoft Surface Duo 2 issues we check at inspection

Hinge stiffness or failure. The dual-screen hinge mechanism can become stiff, creaky, or fail entirely, preventing proper opening/closing or screen functionality.
Screen burn-in on AMOLED displays. Ghost images from status bar, navigation buttons, or keyboard visible on OLED panels after extended use. More noticeable on the inner screens.
Battery degradation. Original battery showing <80% maximum capacity after 2+ years of use, leading to significantly reduced battery life.
Camera module issues. Specific camera lenses or the entire module may experience focus problems, image distortion, or complete failure.
Software glitches and performance lag. Due to the unique dual-screen software, users may experience app crashes, stuttering, or general unresponsiveness, especially after updates.
Cosmetic damage to glass panels. Gorilla Glass Victus is durable but can still chip or crack, especially on the edges or corners. Scratches are also common.
