Lenovo ThinkPad T480s 20L7S2QV00 14" laptop Core i5-8250U 8 GB 256 GB SSD

ThinkPad T480s 14-inch business laptop

The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a 14.0-inch notebook built for mobile professionals who need a durable, tested device. It runs Windows 10 Pro on an Intel Core i5-8250U quad-core processor with 8 GB of memory and a 256 GB PCIe SSD. The non-touch FHD IPS display shows 1920 x 1080 resolution through integrated Intel UHD Graphics 620. Units ship with a charger and a 90-day hardware warranty.

Suits mobile workers, not high-end creators

This laptop suits office workers, students and IT fleets that value MIL-SPEC toughness, long battery life and quick deployment via AutoPilot. The fingerprint reader and ThinkShutter webcam cover add physical security for travel. Buyers who want more storage, a dedicated GPU for rendering or gaming, a touchscreen, or higher core counts for heavy compilation should look at something else.

Quad-core i5-8250U up to 3.40 GHz

The processor is the single specification that decides fit: four cores reaching 3.40 GHz handle typical business workloads, web apps and video calls smoothly. Integrated UHD 620 graphics limit 3D performance, so the machine is not suited for CAD, modern games or GPU-accelerated encoding. If your daily tasks stay within office productivity and cloud tools, this CPU and 8 GB RAM combination will suffice.
