14" FHD Non-Touch Ultrabook

The Lenovo ThinkPad T490 is a 14.0" FHD non-touch ultrabook powered by an Intel Core i5-8250U quad-core processor at 1.6GHz. It comes with 32 GB DDR4 memory and a 512 GB SSD, running Windows 11 Pro. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 handles the display output.

Business users needing portability and memory

This configuration suits professionals who want a lightweight 14" chassis with 32 GB of RAM for multitasking and a 512 GB solid-state drive for fast boot and load times. Buyers who require a touchscreen, a discrete graphics card, or additional internal storage bays should consider other models.

32 GB DDR4 memory configuration

The installed 32 GB DDR4 memory is the key specification that determines whether this unit matches your workload. If your applications need more memory than this, the laptop will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item

Should I choose the 512 GB SSD or a larger 1 TB option?

This unit ships with a 512 GB SSD. The supplier notes that 1 TB configurations exist for the T490 series, so you would need to select a different listing if you require more capacity.

What does the 1.6 GHz quad-core i5-8250U deliver in daily work?

The 1.6 GHz base clock on four cores handles office apps, web browsing and video calls smoothly; the integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 drives the 14.0" 1920 x 1080 IPS panel without a discrete GPU.

Which USB and video ports are on the T490 and what speeds do they cap at?

The T490 provides three USB 3.1 ports and one USB-C port for data and display output, plus an HDMI port for external monitors; wired networking uses the built-in Gigabit Ethernet jack.
