Ready-to-work business laptop

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s arrives with Windows 7 Professional, 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 1 TB NVMe drive already installed. An Intel Core i5-8250U processor running at 1.60 GHz with a 3.40 GHz maximum turbo handles office workloads without extra configuration. The 14.0 inch IPS panel shows 1920 x 1080 resolution on a matte finish.

Ports and expansion to verify

Four USB ports are provided alongside a Thunderbolt connection that delivers up to 40 Gbps of bandwidth. Bluetooth 4.1 supports legacy peripherals, while the 4-in-1 card reader accepts common media formats. Check that your existing docks and monitors match these interfaces before ordering.

Sustained performance profile

The chassis has passed 21 MIL-SPEC tests for durability in harsh environments. Integrated Intel UHD 620 graphics share system memory rather than using dedicated VRAM. Under continuous load the UltraNav touchpad and backlit keyboard remain usable while the fingerprint reader and ThinkShutter webcam cover maintain security features.

Questions about this item

Does the box include the power adapter or do I need to buy one separately?

The laptop ships with its AC power adapter so no separate purchase is required.

Is the 16 GB DDR4 memory soldered or can I add another module later?

The 16 GB DDR4 is soldered to the board and cannot be expanded.

What does the 3.4 GHz turbo figure mean for everyday workloads on the i5-8250U?

The processor can boost up to 3.4 GHz for short bursts when thermal headroom allows, speeding up single-threaded tasks.
