ThinkPad T430s 14.1" business laptop

The Lenovo ThinkPad T430s is a 14.1-inch business laptop built around a dual-core Intel Core i5-3320M processor running at 2.60 GHz with 8 GB of DDR3 memory. It ships with Windows 10 Professional 64-bit pre-installed and includes a 320 GB 2.5-inch hard drive plus a DVD-RW drive. The 1366 x 768 LED display, integrated Intel HD Graphics 4000, webcam, Wi-Fi and Gigabit Ethernet complete a ready-to-work package for office tasks and light mobility.

Upgrade from older Core 2 Duo

Moving to this 3rd generation Core i5 with Hyper-Threading and 8 GB of DDR3 RAM delivers a clear jump in multitasking responsiveness over earlier dual-core or single-core machines. The integrated graphics and 720p-class screen handle everyday productivity, web browsing and video playback without a discrete GPU. If your workload relies on SSD speed, large local storage or higher-resolution displays, this configuration will not meet those needs.

Fits a docked or mobile office setup

VGA and DisplayPort outputs let you drive external monitors at a desk while the 14.1-inch chassis stays light enough for travel. The 10/100/1000 Ethernet port, Intel 802.11 a/g/n wireless and Bluetooth cover wired and wireless networks. A Trusted Platform Module chip supports hardware-based security features. The 2.5-inch drive bay accepts a future SSD upgrade and the memory slots support up to 16 GB of DDR3 for later expansion.
