14.0" FHD touchscreen ultrabook

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480 is a 14.0" FHD touchscreen ultrabook running Windows 10 Pro on an Intel Core i7-8550U quad-core processor at 1.8GHz. It ships with 8GB DDR4 memory and a 1TB SSD. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 handles the display output.

Sustained workload behaviour

The quad-core processor and 8MB L2 cache maintain throughput during extended office tasks and web sessions. The 1TB SSD keeps read and write latency low when large files are opened repeatedly. Active cooling manages heat without throttling the CPU during long work periods.

Deciding specification

The 1TB SSD capacity determines whether this unit covers a heavy local-storage workload. Buyers who need more storage should look elsewhere. The 8GB DDR4 memory is not user-expandable beyond the factory configuration.

Questions about this item

How much heat or fan noise does the Core i7-8550U produce when the laptop runs all day?

The quad-core i7-8550U is a 15 W part, so sustained workloads keep thermals modest and the fan stays quiet in a 14.0" chassis.

Which cables or peripherals must I already own to use every port on this ThinkPad?

You will need USB 3.1 devices for the three Type-A ports, a USB-C cable for the single Type-C port, an HDMI cable for external video and an RJ-45 patch cord for wired Ethernet.

Can I keep my existing DDR4 SODIMMs and SATA or NVME M.2 drives when moving to this T480?

Yes — the board takes DDR4 memory up to 32 GB and the M.2 slot accepts both SATA and NVME SSDs, so current sticks and drives transfer directly.
