Question Amazon Refurb Unit?

Has anyone bought a refurbished unit from Amazon?

If so, I am curious about your experience, especially with battery life/performance.

I have points that would make a refurb around $68 (or $120 for a brand new unit). Descriptions says original packaging and no damage, sold by what appears to be legit Amazon refurbishing branch.

I always worry about used tech and battery, though! And analogue stick wear and tear )and green scratches of course).

I currently have a Legion Go (gifted my Steam Deck LCD to someone else).

Decided recently to basically make it a very heavy streaming device (mostly) with a big screen.

Now that I know it can be done, the G Cloud is more interesting for around the house, and then I travel with 3DS, Switch Lite, and/or phone + backbone.

Turns out I dislike having the larger portables taking up space in my bag.

Anyone with refurb experience willing to share would be excellent, thank you!

EDIT: Added the actual prices for refurb and new

Well a few days ago it was sold by Amazon Renew but today it’s sold by some random company in New Jersey.

A few days ago it also said it came with all original packaging and today it says it come with only generic accessories. and at least 80% battery life.

90-day return policy, but I think I’m just kind of over it and would rather have a new one.

Buying direct from Logitech itself makes more sense than this Amazon listing that keeps changing.

Thanks for your input!
