Business ultraportable with quad-core processor

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s 20L7005FUS is a 14.0" laptop built for professionals who need reliable performance in a compact form factor. It ships new with Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit and an Intel Core i7-8550U quad-core processor with 8 MB L3 cache. The 1920 x 1080 IPS display includes ThinkPad Privacy Guard for on-screen data protection. A fingerprint reader adds biometric sign-in convenience.

DDR4 memory and solid-state storage foundation

This system includes 8GB of DDR4 2400 memory and a 256GB SSD to handle everyday workloads and fast boot times. The integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 uses shared system memory for visual output on the non-touch FHD panel. The spill-resistant keyboard supports long typing sessions in office or travel environments. No discrete graphics card is present, so the platform suits productivity rather than heavy 3D rendering.

Windows 10 Pro and security features ready

Windows 10 Pro 64-Bit provides domain join, BitLocker encryption and remote desktop capabilities out of the box. The fingerprint reader works with Windows Hello for password-free login. ThinkPad Privacy Guard limits viewing angles to protect confidential information in public spaces. Buyers who need a touchscreen or dedicated GPU should consider other configurations.

Questions about this item

Does the Intel Core i7-8550U quad-core processor throttle under long workloads?

The 8 MB L3 cache and Kaby Lake R architecture help sustain performance, but sustained all-core loads will eventually hit thermal limits inside the 14.0" chassis.

How loud and hot does the laptop get when running all day?

Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 keeps power draw modest, yet the compact cooling solution can become audible and the keyboard deck warm during extended sessions.

What memory modules must I already have to upgrade the 8 GB DDR4 2400 configuration?

Only DDR4 2400 SO-DIMMs are compatible; the board accepts a single additional stick up to the platform maximum.
