How we grade every device that comes in, in plain English.

| Flawless | No scratches or scuffs anywhere. Screen and body look like new. Fully working, no cracks. |
| 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. |
| Broken | Powers on but has a fault, a bad display, or a part not working (camera, buttons, Face ID). |
| Won't power on | Won't turn on or hold a charge. We still buy it for parts. |
At inspection
Common Surface Pro 9 i5 issues we check at inspection
- Expensive accessories. Accessories like the keyboard and pen are sold separately, significantly increasing the overall cost.
- Inconsistent battery life. While generally good, some users report that battery life can be inconsistent or shorter than expected for a portable device.
- Limited port selection. The device only features two USB-C/Thunderbolt 4 ports, requiring adapters for older USB-A peripherals or external displays without USB-C.
