Business Laptop for Mobile Professionals

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480 is a 14.0 inch laptop built for office work and travel. It runs Windows 10 Pro on an Intel Core i5-8250U processor with a base speed of 1.60 GHz and a turbo up to 3.40 GHz. The system includes 16GB of DDR4 memory and a 256GB solid state drive for fast boot and application loading.

Upgrade from Older Dual-Core Notebooks

This unit replaces ageing dual-core machines that struggle with modern multitasking. The quad-core i5-8250U and 16GB of RAM make the jump worthwhile when daily workloads involve several browser tabs, Office suites and video calls simultaneously. Buyers who need dedicated graphics for rendering or gaming should look elsewhere.

Limits of Integrated Graphics and Display

The integrated Intel HD Graphics 620 handles desktop composition and video playback but cannot accelerate 3D workloads or drive high-refresh external monitors. The built-in 1366 x 768 anti-glare panel caps on-screen detail, so users requiring sharper text or wider colour gamuts will need an external display.
