ThinkPad T480 14″ FHD for mobile professionals

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480 is a 14-inch ultrabook with a 1920 x 1080 IPS non-touch display. It runs on an Intel Core i5-8250U quad-core processor at 1.6 GHz with 6 MB L2 cache and integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620. This unit ships with 16 GB DDR4 memory, a 512 GB SSD and Windows 10 Pro pre-installed.

Bundled adapter and Windows 11 Pro licence

An OEM 45 W or 65 W AC adapter is included so the laptop can be powered immediately. The supplier notes that Windows 11 Pro comes preinstalled on these units, replacing the Windows 10 Pro licence shown in the base specification. No optical drive, SD card reader or fingerprint reader is guaranteed with this configuration.

Standard ultrabook installation.

Setup consists of connecting the supplied adapter and completing the Windows out-of-box experience. The spec sheet lists SD or MicroSD slots and a fingerprint reader as optional features that may not be present on every unit, so buyers needing those functions should verify before purchase.

Questions about this item

Can the DDR4 memory be upgraded beyond the installed 16 GB?

The platform supports up to 32 GB of DDR4, so an additional module can be fitted if a slot is free.

What limits sustained CPU performance during long workloads?

The 15 W quad-core i5-8250U will hit its thermal ceiling first, causing clock speeds to drop under continuous load.

How loud and hot does the chassis get when the Ultrabook runs all day?

The 45 W or 65 W adapter feeds a slim 0.78 in chassis; fan noise rises noticeably and the bottom surface becomes warm during extended use.
