ThinkPad T490 2 TB PCIe SSD

The Lenovo ThinkPad T490 is a 14.0 inch business laptop equipped with an Intel Core i5-8265U quad-core processor that reaches 4.1 GHz turbo frequency. It includes 12 GB of DDR4 memory in a mixed onboard and SO-DIMM arrangement and a 2 TB PCIe NVMe solid-state drive. The HD display runs at 1366 x 768 resolution with integrated Intel UHD graphics and ships with Windows 10 Pro.

Suits mobile professionals needing storage

This configuration suits users who want a light 3.23 lb chassis with a large 2 TB PCIe SSD for local files and fast boot times. The 12 GB DDR4 split between soldered and removable modules limits future memory expansion, so buyers who anticipate needing more than 12 GB should consider a different system.

1366 x 768 display resolution

The panel resolution of 1366 x 768 is the single specification that determines whether this screen meets your clarity requirements. Text and images will appear less sharp than on higher-density panels, so verify that this pixel count is acceptable for your daily workload before purchasing.
