It looks perfect. I can't tell it's used other than the fact that it did not come with the original box.
But I was surprised they included a brand new Dell S-Pen in the box. I was worried that the pen was going to be missing. (Other Satisfactory" laptops I've bought from BB have always had the pen missing.)
So far it's working fine, but I just got it a few hours ago.
I hope it doesn't have any of the problems in all the one star reviews!
I didn't realize how small and light and thin this laptop is. Super portable, but at UHD resolution on a 13" screen, the text is SUPER small! I had to change the Windows scale to 200%. It came set to 300%. The screen looks great though.
The speakers can get super loud. Strange for such a small laptop. No bass really, but that's to be expected at this size.
I see that the 1 yr warranty expires on 9/27/2022, so I guess the warranty started when it was first purchased?
I wish it had more ports, but I bought a display port/USB-C dock since I plan on hooking up two monitors, keyboard, mouse, and external hard drives to it to replace my wife's current desktop. We'll see how that goes once I get the dock.

The built is excellent and the screen is a 100% SRGB UHD screen with 300 nits. Intel Xe iGPU with quad channel memory can ran most current game in 1920x1080 low preset or 1280x720 mid preset. It also comes with 40gbs TB4 port for docks and charging.
Overall, I'm very happy with the laptop.
Pro:
less than 3lb ultraportable, 2.75lb
100% SRGB UHD Screen
Intel NVME ssd with Optane drive
Active pen support with built in charger and holder
Intel Xe G7 GPU with quad channel memory, capable of light gaming
Speaker is loud
Full metal alloy body
Windows Hello ir 3D camera and power button finger print reader
Con:
Screen could be brighter and hdr support, only 300 nits
They were very lightly used, at home only. Never traveled, bought as work from home laptops for myself and my partner during the pandemic.
Dell support was useless. You can blame chip shortages, but Dell was unable to repair either because these are non-standard discontinued models. So there are no parts.
The pen is also not replaceable. Dell doesn't sell spares or replacements.
It's always a case of your experience may be different, but I would not recommend these Dell laptops. I would definitely not buy an open box because warranty-wise you're even worse off.
I could have had bad luck and your experience may differ, but the 1 star reviews on Best Buy are there for a reason.

If the laptop breaks in the future, it will simply be replaced by a newer/current model with a pen. "free upgrade"
as for the warranty, mine ends on november 27th, 2022 with the ability to extended to the max 4 years via dell.com self service
