ThinkPad T480/T490 14" Touch Ultrabook

This 14.0 inch FHD IPS touchscreen laptop ships new with Windows 11 Pro. An Intel Core i5-8250U quad-core processor running at 1.6 GHz pairs with 32 GB DDR4 memory and a 1 TB SSD. Integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620 drives the 1920 x 1080 panel. Connectivity includes USB 3.1 ports, a USB-C port, HDMI, RJ-45 Ethernet, Wi-Fi and Bluetooth 4.1.

Suits mobile professionals needing touch input

The touchscreen and convertible form factor help presenters, field technicians and annotators who work directly on the display. Buyers who want a dedicated GPU for rendering or gaming should look elsewhere. Units missing the optional fingerprint reader or SD card slot will not satisfy workflows that rely on those features.

Deciding spec: 32 GB DDR4 memory

The 32 GB configuration is the largest memory option listed for this series. It determines whether the machine can hold large datasets, multiple virtual machines or heavy browser workloads without paging. If your workload fits in 16 GB or less, a lower-capacity unit will cost less while delivering the same processor and storage performance.

Questions about this item

What display interface does the 14.0" 1920 x 1080 touchscreen use and what does it cap in practice?

The built-in panel is driven by integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620, so the internal 1920 x 1080 image is limited to the GPU's own output capability.

What physical space and weight should I plan for the 13.25" x 9.15" x .78" 3.6 lbs chassis?

The unit measures 13.25 inches wide, 9.15 inches deep and .78 inches thick, weighing 3.6 lbs, so a bag or sleeve sized for a 14" ultrabook is required.

How is Windows 11 Pro installed on this unit and what step do people miss?

Windows 11 Pro comes pre-installed; the step users often skip is completing the out-of-box experience setup before applying driver or firmware updates.
