Questions about this item

Does the ThinkPad T480s arrive with the 128 GB SSD and 8 GB DDR4 already installed, or must I buy memory and storage separately?

The unit ships with a 128 GB SSD and 8 GB DDR4 fitted; no extra memory or storage purchase is required.

Should I choose the i5-8250U model with 128 GB SSD or look for a larger drive option?

This configuration pairs the i5-8250U at 1.60 GHz base and 3.4 GHz turbo with a 128 GB SSD; select it if that capacity meets your workload, otherwise seek a higher-capacity variant.

What does the 3.4 GHz turbo figure mean for everyday performance on the 14" FHD display?

The processor can reach 3.4 GHz under load, speeding tasks such as document editing and web browsing on the 1920 x 1080 IPS panel.
