Ready-to-use business ultrabook

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480 or T490 is a 14-inch FHD non-touch ultrabook shipped new with Windows 10 Pro pre-installed. It targets professionals who need a lightweight, fleet-standard machine for office applications, video calls and light content work. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 handles everyday visuals without a discrete GPU. The package includes an OEM 45 W or 65 W AC adapter.

Quad-core i7-8550U with 8 GB DDR4 and 256 GB SSD

The single specification that decides fit is the soldered 8 GB DDR4 memory paired with the 8th Gen Intel Core i7-8550U quad-core processor running at 1.8 GHz. This combination fixes the multitasking ceiling; buyers who need more RAM or a user-accessible SO-DIMM slot cannot upgrade this unit. The 256 GB SSD provides the boot drive and primary storage.

Drop-in deployment with Grade A cosmetic variance

Setup is limited to unboxing, connecting the included adapter and completing Windows 10 Pro or Windows 11 Pro first-run configuration. No internal hardware installation is required. The main friction point is cosmetic: Grade A units range from pristine to showing light scratches or minor blemishes, and the exact model — T480 at 3.6 lbs or T490 at 3.2 lbs — depends on availability.
