I have it.  It's definitely not the best.

That's the case for all of his recordings. They leave much to be desired.

Is Yundi Li's interpretation of Liszt pieces like La Campanella and the Sonata on point at all? I have that recording and I definitely like the sound. As a non-pianist there's not much I can say about the interpretation, but I found it to be generally decent.

Yundi Li's interpretations leave a lot to be desired, but I think that over time he will mature and probably develop into a more complete pianist. Of course, he is technically all there.
