Business ultraportable

The Lenovo ThinkPad T490s is a 14 inch laptop built for professionals who need a reliable Windows 10 Pro machine. It runs on an Intel Core i5-8265U processor with four cores and eight threads, reaching 3.9 GHz. The 1920x1080 IPS panel offers anti-glare viewing at 250 nits. Soldered 8GB DDR4-2400 memory and a 256GB NVMe Opal2 drive complete the core specification.

Suited for mobile office work.

This configuration suits users who primarily run browser-based tools, email, and document editing on the move. The fixed 8GB RAM means buyers who need more memory for virtual machines, large datasets, or simultaneous creative apps should look at a model with upgradeable slots. Gamers and video editors requiring discrete graphics will also need a different class of device.

Everyday capacity with clear limits

The 256GB NVMe Opal2 drive holds the operating system, essential applications, and a working set of project files comfortably. Storage runs out once local media libraries, multiple VM images, or large raw photo catalogues are added. Memory headroom is tight; 8GB handles typical office multitasking but leaves little room for memory-intensive workloads or future OS upgrades.

Will my existing DDR4-2400 SO-DIMM upgrade work with the soldered memory?

The 8GB is soldered and not expandable; there is no SO-DIMM slot to add a module.
