Business ultraportable with LTE

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a 14.0" business laptop running Windows 7 Professional. It combines an Intel Core i7-8550U processor with 24 GB of DDR4 memory and a 1 TB SSD. Integrated Intel UHD 620 graphics drive the 1920 x 1080 matte IPS panel, while a 4G LTE WWAN module keeps the system connected away from Wi-Fi.

Sustained productivity focus

The 8550U operates at a 1.80 GHz base frequency and can reach 4.00 GHz under load, supported by the chassis thermal design that passes 21 MIL-SPEC tests. Thunderbolt 3 at 40 Gbps provides high-bandwidth I/O for docks or external storage without throttling the CPU during long sessions. The fingerprint reader and webcam cover add security without interrupting workflow.

24 GB DDR4 decides fit

The soldered-plus-slot memory configuration totals 24 GB, which determines whether the laptop can hold your working set without paging. Buyers who need more memory than this single fixed capacity provides should consider other models. The 1 TB SSD and 4.1 Bluetooth complement the memory but cannot replace it.
