14" FHD Non-Touch Ultrabook

This Lenovo ThinkPad ultrabook ships new with a 14.0-inch 1920 x 1080 IPS display, an 8th Gen Intel Core i5-8250U quad-core processor, 32GB of DDR4 memory and a 256GB SSD. Windows 10 Pro is pre-installed alongside integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620. The unit includes an OEM AC adapter and offers Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.1 connectivity.

Business users needing a lightweight 14-inch laptop

The configuration suits professionals who want a portable 14-inch chassis with a full HD non-touch screen, quad-core performance and 32GB of RAM for multitasking. Buyers who require a dedicated graphics card, a touchscreen panel or more than 256GB of internal storage should consider other models.

32GB DDR4 memory and 256GB SSD capacity

The single specification that decides fit is the combination of 32GB DDR4 RAM paired with a 256GB solid-state drive. This capacity ceiling is fixed for this unit, so workloads demanding larger local storage or memory upgrades beyond 32GB will need a different configuration.

Questions about this item

How hot and loud does the i5-8250U get when the T480 runs flat-out all day?

The quad-core i5-8250U has a 15 W TDP, so the T480 stays cool and quiet under typical office loads; sustained heavy work will spin the fan up but it remains well within normal ultrabook limits.

Which dock or monitor cables do I already need to hook up the T480's USB 3.1 and HDMI ports?

The T480 provides three USB 3.1 Type-A ports, one USB-C port and one full-size HDMI 1.4 output; bring your own HDMI cable and any USB-A peripherals or a USB-C dock that matches those ports.

Will my older SATA SSD work if I swap it into the T480's drive slot?

The T480 uses an M.2 slot that accepts both SATA and NVME drives, so a 2.5-inch SATA SSD will not fit; you need an M.2 SATA stick or an NVME stick instead.
