Q: How well does it play compared to an Armstrong flute?

There is a WORLD of difference between these flutes and even the entry level Armstrong, starting with durability but extending to tone, embouchure, key action, pads, springs, and serviceability - just to START. The ONLY time spending money on one of these is "worth it" is if there are no other options, in my opinion. Who am I to say so? I have played flute(s) for 46 years in marching bands; concert bands; orchestras; as a soloist & in ensembles; for festivals, weddings, and other events. I was chosen for a prestigious youth symphony, a nationally known marching band, and hired by a pro symphony orchestra at age 20. I have played Artley, Bundy, De Ford, Emerson, Selmer, Armstrong, Gemeinhardt, Pearl, Azumi, Yamaha, Muramatsu, Powell and Haynes flutes, in addition to nearly all of the recent Chinese imported brands like Sky, Glory, Mendini, etc. I have also played Artley, Armstrong, Gemeinhardt, Jupiter, and Yamaha piccolos (and tried the imports, too). I've taught flute lessons for over 30 years, and I've worked with flute techs, ad by myself, on almost every instrument brand over the last decade. The BIGGEST PROBLEM with cheap,imported flutes is that that are not fixable. Many techs will not work on them. The metal is soft/poor quality. They bend easily and the springs, keys and tome holes do not last. The companies do not stand behind them. (Try returning one for warranty work.) You MIGHT have time to learn the fingering for notes before your flute expires, or if you are exceptional, your instrument may last longer. You are, in my EXPERT opinion, far better off to spend a bit more and get even a USED Armstrong, Gemeinhardt, Yamaha, Emerson, Artley, etc. than to buy one of these. Silver, even plate, sounds MUCH different than "cupronickel metal" colored silver (or something else). A beginner won't hear it. A musician will.

Q: What’s the difference between $1000 and this one?

This flute is made from junk metal, cannot be repaired, isn’t in tune, cannot be sold if your kid stops playing and has closed holes. A $1000 flute is a professional instrument.

Q: I wonder if the resonance (sound) is metal or plastic

This Glory Flute is amazing for the price. Better than many double or triple the price. Nice mellow sounds. The flute is all metal and very polished.

Q: after how many time can the color came off or scratch?

I bought the white flute. After owning it about 3 months, there is some of the white paint flecking off at the headjoint (mouthpiece) where it slides into the top of the flute and there is one other tiny spot about the size of the period at the end of this sentence on the headjoint where the paint has chipped. The rest of the flute looks new. It would not take very much pressure to chip off more. Verdict: Paint looks good but not durable. May be better off with a metal coating instead of a painted one. Flute still sounds and plays awesome.

Addendum to previous review

Sounded great, with acceptable tuning, until I had to play with others in a cold environment - the pitch went to an uncorrectable, unplayable level. Bringing it back to reasonable temperature, the pitch was again fine. This is not the case with my silver flute which can hold the pitch (with minor adjustment) at any temperature.
