14" IPS FHD Touch Display

The Lenovo ThinkPad T490s is a 14-inch business notebook with a multi-touch IPS panel at 1920 x 1080 resolution. It runs on an Intel Core i7-8665U quad-core processor reaching 4.8GHz turbo frequency. The system includes 16GB DDR4 memory and a 512GB NVMe SSD. Windows 10 Pro comes pre-installed.

Business Users Needing Touch Input

This configuration suits professionals who want pen or finger interaction on a colour-accurate IPS screen for annotation or presentations. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance for rendering or gaming should look elsewhere. The integrated Intel UHD Graphics handles office workloads and video playback only.

512GB NVMe SSD Storage

The single 512GB NVMe drive determines how much local data and how many applications you can keep on board without external drives. Users with large media libraries or virtual-machine images will need supplemental storage. No additional internal drive bays are mentioned in the specifications.

Questions about this item

Does the T490s ship with a power adapter and are any cables sold separately?

The notebook includes the standard power adapter and Windows 10 Pro licence; no extra cables are required for basic operation.

Should I choose the 16GB DDR4 configuration or look for a larger memory option?

The 16GB DDR4 is soldered and not upgradeable, so select this capacity only if it meets your workload.

How does the 4.8GHz turbo frequency behave during sustained workloads on this 14" chassis?

The i7-8665U reaches 4.8GHz in short bursts; thermal limits in the thin 14.0" body will reduce clocks during long heavy tasks.
