ThinkPad T480 14.0-inch business laptop

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480 is a 14.0-inch business laptop powered by an Intel Core i5-8250U quad-core processor running at 1.6 GHz. It comes with 16 GB of memory and a 512 GB PCIe NVMe solid-state drive. Windows 10 Pro is pre-installed on the non-touch HD display with a 1366 x 768 resolution. Integrated graphics handle everyday workloads.

Check power adapter and OS requirements

Verify that the included AC adapter matches your local mains voltage and plug type before first use. Confirm that Windows 10 Pro meets any software licensing or management policies your organisation requires. The unit ships with a functional battery and a third-party or OEM-used charger as noted by the supplier. No HDD bay is present, so storage expansion relies on external solutions.

Sustained office workload thermal behaviour

During extended office tasks the quad-core processor maintains consistent clocks while the integrated graphics share system memory. The single 512 GB NVMe drive delivers steady read and write speeds without thermal throttling typical of heavier workloads. Fan noise remains moderate under continuous productivity loads. Buyers needing discrete graphics or higher-resolution panels should consider other models.
