Evaluation summary: we checked the returned unit and confirmed that the distal body chipped.Based on the result, we concluded that it was caused due to the physical damage applied on the distal body.In addition, we confirmed that the operation channel cut, the remote control buttons leaky, the lg cable connector fluid damage, the control body fluid damage, the remote control buttons leaky, and the objective prism scratched; however, they are not the main cause, and/or irrelevant to the alleged complaint.
