Ready-to-work ultrabook

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a 14.0" business laptop built around an 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8650U quad-core processor. It ships with Windows 11 Pro installed and includes 8 GB DDR4 memory plus a 128 GB SSD. The non-touch IPS panel delivers 1920 x 1080 resolution for clear text and video calls.

Storage capacity check

The single drive is a 128 GB solid-state unit with no secondary hard drive bay mentioned. Buyers who need more storage for large media libraries or local databases should verify external expansion options before purchase.

Thermals and power

Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 keeps heat output modest during office workloads and video playback. The 1.90 GHz base clock with 4.20 GHz turbo allows burst performance without sustained fan noise. A 65 W USB Type-C adapter supplies power and charges via Power Delivery.

Questions about this item

What does the 4.20 GHz turbo on the i7-8650U mean for everyday workloads?

The processor can reach 4.20 GHz on short bursts when thermal headroom allows, speeding up single-threaded tasks such as web browsing or spreadsheet recalculation.

What does USB 3.1 Gen1 cap at on the two Type-A ports?

Each USB 3.1 Gen1 Type-A port is limited to 5 Gbps theoretical bandwidth, shared with any connected hub or device.

Will a standard 2.5-inch SATA drive fit inside the chassis?

No, the T480s uses only an M.2 slot for storage; there is no 2.5-inch bay or caddy.
