Business ultraportable with 24 GB RAM

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a 14-inch Windows 10 Pro laptop built for mobile professionals who need a light chassis and a full business feature set. It ships with an Intel Core i5-8250U processor, 24 GB of DDR4 memory and a 128 GB SSD. The matte IPS panel shows 1920 x 1080 resolution without touch input.

Sustained performance under MIL-SPEC testing

Every unit passes 21 MIL-SPEC tests for reliability in harsh physical and environmental conditions. The quad-core CPU reaches 3.4 GHz maximum turbo frequency, while Intel UHD 620 integrated graphics handle everyday visual workloads. Thermal design targets consistent output during extended work sessions rather than short bursts.

Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C expands connectivity

A single USB-C port carries Thunderbolt 3 at up to 40 Gbps, delivering four times the data bandwidth and twice the video bandwidth of other port types while also supplying power. Bluetooth 4.1 handles wireless peripherals. The 128 GB SSD capacity and soldered memory limit future storage and RAM upgrades for users who need more headroom.

Questions about this item

How much power does the i5-8250U draw and how hot does the chassis get during all-day use?

The processor has a base frequency of 1.60 GHz and can boost up to 3.4 GHz within its standard thermal envelope; the laptop weighs between 2 and 2.9 lbs and uses integrated UHD 620 graphics, so heat output scales with sustained workload rather than a discrete GPU.

What peripherals or cables must I already own to use the Thunderbolt 3 port and the SD card reader?

Thunderbolt 3 uses a USB-C connector supporting up to 40 Gbps data and video bandwidth, so you need Thunderbolt 3 or USB-C cables and devices; the 4-in-1 reader accepts SD, SDHC, SDXC and MMC cards directly without an adapter.

Will my existing DDR4 SODIMM modules work alongside the installed memory if I want to expand later?

The system comes with 24 GB of DDR4 memory; the i5-8250U memory controller supports DDR4 SODIMMs, so any compatible DDR4 SODIMM you already own can be added if a free slot remains.
