14" FHD ThinkPad for Business Users

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480 is a 14-inch non-touch ultrabook with a 1920 x 1080 IPS display. It runs on an Intel Core i5-8250U quad-core processor with 16 GB of DDR4 memory and a 256 GB SSD. Windows 10 Pro comes pre-installed for professional environments.

Verify Ports and Chassis Version Before Order

The supplier ships either a T480 or T490 unit depending on stock. The T480 weighs about 3.6 lbs and measures 13.25" x 9.15" x .78", while the T490 is lighter at 3.2 lbs and smaller at 12.7" x 8.5" x .7". Confirm which chassis matches your docking station, sleeve or port requirements before purchase.

Upgrade from Dual-Core or HDD Systems

This unit replaces laptops limited to two cores or mechanical hard drives. The quad-core i5-8250U and 256 GB SSD deliver noticeably faster multitasking and boot times. Buyers needing dedicated graphics, more than 16 GB RAM or a touchscreen should look elsewhere.
