CORRECTIONS / UPDATES:
1. It looks as if I was wrong on the timeline of the $5 Deposit. It's no longer available and I'm really sorry for mentioning it in the video. That is my mistake and I'll try to do better!
2. I forgot to make a last minute fix, but UGreen said that email updates will be added in a later update.
3. I've reached out to UGreen again for clarification on the "warranty void" sticker. Here is the response: "Since the location of the equipment is relatively important if the user disassembles or assembles it, there is a high probability that the equipment will malfunction, so UGREEN has put this label on it to warn users. What we actually want to express is that UGREEN will no longer provide the service for any malfunction or damages resulting from overhaul, modification, or disassembly performed by any agency or individual not authorized by UGREEN. But if the problem has nothing to do with user disassembly, UGREEN will still provide the warranty service."
