Ready-to-use business ultrabook

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a 14-inch laptop built around an 8th-generation Intel Core i7-8650U quad-core processor running at 1.90 GHz with 8 MB of L2 cache. It ships with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 128 GB solid-state drive. Windows 10 Pro is pre-installed on a 1920 x 1080 IPS non-touch display with thin borders.

Suited to mobile professionals needing

This configuration serves users who value portability, a mature docking ecosystem via two USB-C ports with Power Delivery and DisplayPort, and the classic ThinkPad keyboard. Buyers who want more internal storage than 128 GB, a discrete graphics processor, a touchscreen panel, or a newer Windows 11 licence out of the box should look at other models.

Deciding spec: 128 GB SSD capacity

The single figure that determines fit is the 128 GB solid-state drive. It covers the operating system and a modest working set of documents, but it leaves little room for large media libraries, virtual machines or sizable project files without external or cloud storage.

Questions about this item

How do I add memory, and which step causes problems?

Open the base cover and insert the DDR4 stick into the single SO-DIMM slot; the step people miss is pressing the module down until both side clips click.

What part will need replacement first?

The internal battery will need replacement before other components as it is the only user-replaceable consumable inside the chassis.

What limit appears first during a long 1920 x 1080 workload?

The integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 reaches its thermal ceiling first, causing clock speeds to drop until the system cools.
