Question: Is this a quiet laptop? One of the reviewers mentioned an elevated noise level.
Document: I bought the Edge 68852BU for the price but was disappointed by the bulkiness - both the size as well as weight. I agree I should have paid more attention, but all the Thinkpads I have had until now were much smaller, so I took it for granted. Also, there is an elevated noise level (not sure if it is the fan or the drive).
But over time and patience i was able to go into the bios.You must ask why do you want should one go to the bios? because you can! Also, if you know that pesky "BEEP" noise when you accidentally  type or press down more than > 2 keys.
The color is a matte black and the laptop looks great whether closed or open.The trackpad, which is used to drag the cursor, is smooth and precise - very good quality. One of my favorite things about the laptop is that the trackpad gives you the option of using a quick-tap function in order to left or right click more discreetly AND it has the buttons for those same functions for more precise clicking, which is slightly less quiet but still within reason. So you can click however you want.
I love the Lenovo Thinkpad Edge that we bought. It doesn't make any noise when on, does not get hot whatsoever and is everything we had hoped for. I'd highly recommend this computer to anyone searching for something a little better than a standard laptop.
I have two major problems with with this laptop.The biggest problem is there is a lot of noise (intermittent clicking) from the hard drive. After doing some research, it appears to be caused by the head excessively parking. I haven't found a solution to fix this.The second problem is the flipped Ctrl and FN keys. It's very hard to get used to the ctrl key not being in the bottom left of the keyboard.
never had a laptop. Always borrowed one or used a desktop. This unit will more than meet my needs as a college student & independent!
I have had this laptop for about 6 months. Absolutely no issues with it - very compatible and takes a beating. Nice and sturdy, not a flimsy build - this is my 2nd Lenovo, first one the hard drive died quite early -
What a cost effective touch screen laptop with an i5 processor. Tried and returned 3 other laptops before coming across this one and am soooo glad I waited for it.Oh, I hate windows 8, but this isn't about that.
I wanted to review this after I had used it for awhile. I used to have an old Think-Pad back in the 90's and I loved it and needed a new laptop so I thought I'd try one of the newer versions.
For this computer, I was so pleased with the design. I love the thinkpad design. But, I was so unlucky to get a defective one. The fan was so noisy when I turned the computer on. The laptop was slow when you tried to do multiple tasks. And the worst is wifi card.So, in the end, I decided returning this laptop.
Answer: I haven't noticed noise coming from the processor,  though the keyboard is a bit noisy.  Randomly,  I will say that the battery life is not great,  but I don't mind too much since it does charge quickly.  Maybe 3 hours battery life,  longer if you're just using loaded applications instead of Internet.
