Business laptop with Windows 7 Pro

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s ships with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit installed. An Intel Core i5-8250U processor runs at 1.60 GHz and can reach 3.40 GHz. The 14.0 inch IPS display shows 1920 x 1080 resolution on a matte finish. Memory is 8 GB DDR4 and storage is a 512 GB PCIe NVMe SSD. Integrated Intel UHD 620 graphics handle the screen output.

Installation and common issues

The laptop arrives ready to use with the operating system pre-loaded. The fingerprint reader and ThinkShutter webcam cover are built in, so no extra parts are needed. Thunderbolt 3 over USB-C supports up to 40 Gbps for docks or external drives. Bluetooth 4.1 pairs with standard peripherals. Driver support for Windows 7 on 8th generation hardware can be limited, so some features may need manual updates.

What to check before ordering

Verify that your software licences and security policies allow Windows 7 Professional, which no longer receives mainstream updates. Confirm that 8 GB of soldered DDR4 meets your workload, because the memory cannot be upgraded. Ensure the single 512 GB NVMe drive provides enough space, as there is no second drive bay. The 14.0 inch non-touch matte screen suits office lighting but not touch workflows. Weight ranges from 2 to 2.9 lbs depending on configuration.
