Durable carbon-fiber chassis, Stellar keyboard, Quiet operation, Useful selection of ports, including Thunderbolt
Dim display, X1 Carbon is thinner, lighter, and only slightly pricier
The 14-inch Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a well-rounded workhorse laptop, but it can't escape the shadow of its superslim X1 Carbon sibling...
Abstract: The Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a business laptop pitched to be “designed for mobile power” while being IT-friendly, secure and very lightweight (~2.9 lbs). This caught our attention, and we wanted to see how far we could push it, and if it would deliver.In...
strong, well-constructed case, terrific CPU performance at Turbo clock rates, even under sustained load, stable GPU performance, also at highest Turbo frequencies, class-leading keyboard and good touchpad, good port selection and organization, reasonable
dull colors from FHD display due to lack of saturation and suboptimal factory calibration, relatively weak display brightness compared with WQHD screen, rubber feet lack grip on hard surfaces, clickpad integrated buttons are less precise than the separat
Allday battery life, Solid build, ThinkShutter for webcam security, LTE and touchscreen options
Moderate storage and screen resolution on entrylevel models
Lenovo's ThinkPad T480s has many plus points, and the upgrade to 8th Generation Intel processors is welcome. It's a pity that you have to go rather well beyond the entry-level price to get more than 128GB of storage, and further still if you need integrat...
As is always the case with ThinkPads, I can easily recommend the T480s for someone that wants a powerful and portable laptop. I'm just not sure of a use case where I wouldn't recommend a different ThinkPad first. The T480 has a hot-swappable battery, maki...

high quality chassis, excellent input devices, long battery runtime, very good matte WQHD panel, combination of modern and familiar ports, WWAN-ready, 3-year warranty, good performance utilization, fast PCIe-SSD, many security features
high surface temperatures, drivers not perfectly optimized yet, bad speakers, ThinkShutter camera cover only with the bad HD webcam
great simple looks and excellent build quality, good IO, fairly good WQHD screen option, but expensive, performs very well, even with demanding loads, runs cool and mostly quiet, good battery life
didn't like the typing experience, color and brightness uniformity issues on our sample, the i7 CPU gets HOT with demanding loads, poor speakers
This Lenovo ThinkPad T480s is a darn good laptop. It's not necessarily the prettiest, the smallest or the most affordable, but if you're after a solid computer with little compromises in still a fairly portable package, this has to be be on your list. The...
