14" FHD IPS touchscreen ultrabook

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a 14-inch Full HD ultrabook with an IPS touchscreen. It runs Windows 10 Pro on an Intel Core i7-8650U quad-core processor at 1.9 GHz with 8 GB DDR4 memory and a 256 GB SSD. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 handles the display. Connectivity includes Wi-Fi 4, Bluetooth 4.1, HDMI, two USB 3.1 Gen1 ports and two USB Type-C ports supporting Power Delivery and DisplayPort. An OEM AC adapter is included.

Who this suits and who should look elsewhere

This laptop suits professionals who want a lightweight 14-inch device with a touchscreen for direct interaction and pen input. The quad-core processor and 8 GB DDR4 memory handle office suites, web apps and light multitasking well. Buyers who need more storage than 256 GB or more than 8 GB memory should consider other configurations. Users requiring a discrete graphics card for 3D work or gaming will not find it here. The fixed 8 GB DDR4 memory cannot be upgraded later.

Deciding specification: 256 GB SSD

The 256 GB SSD is the specification that decides fit. It provides fast boot and application load times but caps total local capacity at 256 GB. If your workflow stores large media libraries, virtual machines or big project files on the device, this capacity will fill quickly. Cloud storage or an external drive can extend space, but only if you are willing to manage that workflow. Choose this model only if 256 GB meets your daily needs.

Questions about this item

How do I install the 8 GB DDR4 module, and which slot do people often pick by mistake?

The 8 GB DDR4 memory is soldered to the board and cannot be removed, so there is no slot choice to get wrong.

Which component will need replacement first during the laptop's lifespan?

The 256 GB SSD is the only user-replaceable storage device; its write endurance determines when a swap becomes necessary.

What thermal limit appears first when the Intel Core i7-8650U runs at 4.20 GHz for extended periods?

The processor will throttle once its package temperature reaches the built-in thermal ceiling, lowering clocks to protect the silicon.
