Review of hardware durability and repair (1.5 years)

2 year 2 month update - it’s still going strong and haven’t dropped it for a while.

Keyboard
However, the keyboard finally needed to be replaced as the left alt key quit working. This was an arduous replacement. I stripped two screws and am left somehow with a few extra. In any case, keyboard works again. Took around 5 days to receive.

Power Cable
Also, the power cable which was replaced also frayed. Not as bad as the original quite yet, but definitely will not be buying another.

Bezel
And finally, the edges of the bezel seem to be coming off. Not really sure what to do about that.
