Business laptop for mobile professionals

The Lenovo ThinkPad T490s is a 14.0 inch Windows 10 Pro notebook built around a quad-core Intel Core i7-8565U that reaches 4.6GHz. It targets users who need a lightweight chassis with a responsive 1920 x 1080 IPS touchscreen and a fingerprint reader for quick sign-in.

8GB DDR4 and 2TB NVMe capacity

Eight gigabytes of DDR4 memory handles typical office multitasking and browser workloads, while the 2TB NVMe SSD provides extensive space for large project files and local backups. Memory-intensive tasks such as virtual machines or heavy media editing will hit the 8GB ceiling and require an upgrade.

Thunderbolt and integrated graphics limits

A Thunderbolt port enables fast external storage or a single 4K monitor, but the Intel UHD Graphics 720p engine cannot drive demanding 3D applications or multiple high-refresh displays. The 720p webcam and Wi-Fi connectivity cover standard conferencing needs without advanced streaming features.

Questions about this item

Will the Thunderbolt port work with my older Thunderbolt 2 dock using an adapter?

Open Display Settings to confirm the 1920 x 1080 resolution and test multi-touch response by pinching to zoom on the screen.
