I primarily use the keyboard & mouse on the device.  The keyboard is very quiet, but clicking on the navigation/mouse pad is VERY noisy - unnecessarily so.  Otherwise, this is a great laptop.  I have a work issued HP device that doesn't hold a candle to this one.  Love the media/SIM card slot because I use my digital camera a lot. It even came with a SIM card and a mouse pad.  (since I dont use an external mouse, the pad wasn't necessary, but its nice that they include it.  Also comes with minimal packaging - which is great! I like the screen size and keyboard size as well.  Purchased the white model, and appreciate the overall appearance. Set up was extremely easy.  It was delivered in 24 hrs too.  I'd have given it a 4.5 stars if I could - but since that isn't an option, I gave it 5.
