ThinkPad T490 14" FHD Touchscreen Ultrabook

This Lenovo ThinkPad T490 is a 14.0" FHD Touchscreen Ultrabook running Windows 11 Pro. It uses an Intel Core i5-8250U quad-core processor at 1.6GHz with Intel UHD Graphics 620. The system includes 8GB DDR4 memory and a 512GB SSD. It is built for professionals who need a portable touchscreen laptop for daily productivity.

Suited for mobile office work.

The integrated graphics and 8GB RAM suit general business applications, web browsing and video calls. Buyers who need more memory for virtual machines or large datasets should look elsewhere. Users requiring a discrete graphics card for rendering, CAD or gaming will not find that capability here. The single 512GB drive also limits local storage expansion.

512GB SSD storage capacity

The laptop ships with a 512GB solid-state drive as its only internal storage. This capacity decides whether the device can hold your operating system, applications and active project files without external drives. No additional drive bays are mentioned, so the 512GB figure is the fixed internal limit for this configuration.
