Is this a real piano or an electric one?

It's sort of difficult to judge.  The sound is horrendous.  And I have a feeling the mike augments the pianos and diminishes the fortes.  It's VERY monotone (not monotonous)  The intentions seem good - the very end of the coda needs more work - Maybe a bit more rubato in the slow section.  Oh, and the two chords in the beginning, STRICTLY in time.  There are no fermatas there.  MAYBE a hair faster.
Anyway, I don't think you can judge your playing by that video-
