Raises performance levels—and eyebrows

Far faster than its predecessor and has 8^th generation Intel^® Core™ processing.  Delivers high performance and is designed to take your productivity to new heights. Backed by the increased speed of DDR4 memory, the ThinkPad T480 gives you the power of a desktop PC and the freedom of a portable laptop.

Where form meets function

Based on ThinkPad customer feedback we understand that mechanical docking is important to many of our customers.  The latest T-Series business laptop offers the same mechanical docking experience you prefer with a new USB-C side docking connector.  It also has a range of convenient ports, including the lightning-quick Intel® Thunderbolt™ 3 port and full-sized RJ45 Ethernet connector. In addition, should you need to work in low-light conditions, the renowned ThinkPad keyboard has a backlit option.

Practical yet secure

Thanks to Windows Hello, an optional touch fingerprint reader, and optional IR (infrared) camera, you can save time by logging in with just your finger or a smile. Alternatively, the standard webcam camera comes with ThinkShutter, a physical cover that you can slide open when you want to use the camera and close it when you’re finished.

* ThinkShutter is not available on configurations with the IR Camera.

Tested for battle, built for success

Every ThinkPad laptop undergoes stringent testing for reliability and durability, including surviving in hazardous physical and environmental conditions.
