Are there any reviews yet about the quality and principles of the editing, scope of the apparatus, etc.?
I haven’t seen any reviews yet, but the introduction is available on the website. Details are somewhat sparse, but the “Establishing the Text” and “Apparatus” sections do provide a bit of additional information along the lines of your question. At least at some point, though, it would be nice to see something along the lines of Metger’s Textual Commentary published for this edition also, at least where it differs from UBS4–NA27.
Well, I take that back. Here are some initial impressions from Stephen Carlson.
Thanks. Carlson’s blog post was just what I was looking for. Links to more info, too.
Indeed. Glad to hear it! 🙂

OSNOVA’s Kindle edition of the SBL Greek New Testament provides an excellent formatting and navigation.

The complete instructions on how to use all navigation aids in this publication are found at the beginning of the book.
