ThinkPad T480s business laptop

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a 14.0 inch business laptop running Windows 10 Pro. It uses an Intel Core i5 8250U processor with a base clock of 1.60 GHz and a maximum turbo of 3.40 GHz. The system includes 8 GB of DDR4 memory and a 2 TB SATA M.2 SSD. A 14 inch IPS FHD matte display provides a 1920 x 1080 resolution. Integrated Intel UHD 620 graphics handle visual output.

Suits mobile professionals needing durability

This laptop suits professionals who value MIL-SPEC tested durability and security features like the fingerprint reader and ThinkShutter webcam cover. Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C provides high-speed docking and peripheral connectivity. Buyers who require a touchscreen or discrete graphics for heavy creative workloads should look at other models. The non-touch matte screen prioritises glare reduction over direct interaction.

2 TB storage and 8 GB memory headroom

The 2 TB SATA SSD offers generous capacity for large local file libraries and applications without relying on cloud sync. 8 GB of DDR4 memory handles typical office multitasking and web browsing comfortably. Memory-intensive tasks such as virtual machines or large dataset analysis will exhaust the available RAM. The integrated UHD 620 graphics limit performance in modern 3D rendering or gaming scenarios.

Questions about this item

What operating system must I already have licences for if I want to run virtual machines on the Windows 10 Pro install?

Windows 10 Pro includes Hyper-V so you can create virtual machines directly; each guest OS still needs its own valid licence.

Will the 8250U processor and 8 GB DDR4 memory keep up with my existing USB 3.0 docking station and dual 1080p monitors?

The 8250U runs at 1.60 GHz up to 3.40 GHz and the Thunderbolt 3 USB-C port drives two 1920 x 1080 displays while the USB 3.0 ports handle legacy dock connections.

How can I confirm the 2 TB SATA SSD and 4G LTE WWAN are both recognised after first boot?

Open Device Manager — the SSD appears under Disk drives and the WWAN module under Network adapters; the signal bars in the task tray show active LTE connection.
