ThinkPad T480s 14" FHD Business Laptop
The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a 14 inch business laptop with a 1920 x 1080 IPS matte display. It runs on an Intel Core i5-8250U processor with a base clock of 1.60 GHz and a maximum turbo frequency of 3.40 GHz. The system includes 12 GB of DDR4 memory and a 2 TB PCIe NVMe SSD. It ships with Windows 10 Pro 64-bit installed.
Suits Mobile Professionals; Not for Heavy GPU Work
This configuration suits professionals who need a durable, lightweight chassis for office applications, video calls and secure logins via the fingerprint reader. The MIL-SPEC tested build and Thunderbolt port support docking and external displays on the move. Buyers who need discrete graphics performance for rendering, modern gaming or intensive compute workloads should look elsewhere, as the platform relies on integrated Intel UHD 620 graphics.
2 TB NVMe SSD Decides Storage Fit
The single specification that determines suitability is the 2 TB PCIe NVMe solid-state drive. It provides high-capacity, low-latency storage for large project files, local databases and offline media libraries. If your workflow demands more than 2 TB of internal fast storage, or requires a secondary drive bay for expansion, this unit will not meet that requirement.

Questions about this item
Does the 12 GB DDR4 memory require a separate SO-DIMM module or is it already installed?
The 12 GB DDR4 memory is already installed inside the chassis, so no separate SO-DIMM purchase is needed.
Can I keep using my existing USB-A peripherals with the four USB ports on this laptop?
Yes, the four USB ports include standard USB-A connectors, so existing USB-A mice, keyboards and drives will work without adapters.
How can I verify the 2 TB PCIe NVMe SSD is recognised at its full capacity after first boot?
Open Windows Disk Management or File Explorer; the drive should show a single partition close to 2 TB with the NVMe label.
