Rated 5 out of 5 by from Another wonderful Thinkpad This is my 4th Thinkpad starting back in the IBM days. I was worried that after the sale to Lenovo that qualty and innovation might suffer. But that has not happened as my previous T450S was still going strong. I needed to upgrade from windows 7 pro which I loved but unfortunately support ended. I also needed more hard drive space so took advantage of the December sales and bought the T480S with more space, faster processor, updated ports type C thunderbolt and HDMI. Typical Thinkpad, best laptop keyboard, solid build and lightweight. I'm a stock trader and easily have 3 extended monitors running in addition to laptop screen with use of separate dock and only one connection to laptop C port, incredibly efficient to unhook one cord for on the go. Looked at lot of laptops at Best Buy but always came back to the Thinkpad. BTW have always loved the trackpoint or the "nub" and glad Lenovo has continued it. I ordered directly from Lenovo as customer service is outstanding from start to finish.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Overall great but touchscreen is a bit lame. Overall very great little machine. But the touchscreen is sub-par compared to others I've had. The extra left / right click buttons above the trackpad are either a blessing or an annoyance depending on how you use the trackpad / pink tickler button. The Home and End buttons are in an unusual location on the keyboard. The network socket on the side of the machine is slightly undersize and it takes a lot of fiddling around to plug in. Otherwise so far it's been great.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Almost Perfect Love it. But several keyboard shortcuts don't seem to work as with my previous Lenovo's (this is my fourth). Annoying . . . but perhaps I can figure it out. Otherwise, excellent machine. 4.7/5

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice for the money The T480S runs faster than my old T430. The keyboard feel is only slightly different. The computer is much lighter. Because it is primarily a desktop substitute,I do wish it had another USB port. After about a month, I cannot yet comment on durability, hence the rating of 4. Overall, I'm pleased.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Thoroughly Pleased with my Thinkpad After 10 years on a Mac, I'm delighted with my new Thinkpad T480S, which arrived the day after I ordered it, even though I didn't pay for expedited shipping. Compact, lightweight, very easy to set up, great screen resolution. I love the backlit keypad (like my old Mac, fingertip password, and camera security. Four days in, I am thoroughly pleased with this purchase!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My ThinkPad T480s Review The ThinkPad T480s is definitely an amazing laptop and one that will last for the many years to come. However, on my particular model, I've been having many build issues such as the TrackPad losing its physical click, the power button sometimes not turning on the machine, Ethernet cables getting stuck in the port, and some other minor issues. Repairs had also been done to the laptop, and even after the repair, some of the new parts became defective and stopped working as intended. These are things that can definitely be frustrating to a customer, and it was, however, the reason why I put a 5-star review is because of Lenovo's amazing customer support. After I opened a case and told Lenovo's support about my issues with the laptop, this T480s, my case was assigned to a case manager. She was amazing to work with and listened to all my concerns and replied in very quick manners. She then offered me a replacement laptop (the T14s) with much better specs than this laptop. She even allowed me to keep my T480s laptop for 2 weeks after my T14s arrived to transfer data and software. And the best part- it was all completely free and I hadn't had to pay for anything. What surprised me is that I hadn't even had to pay a temporary charge/give my credit card details to get the new laptop shipped. In fact, I have both laptops in my hands right now and plan to ship back my T480s in a couple days. This was an amazing experience and I am so proud to be a ThinkPad owner. This is where Lenovo excels. Thank you so much Lenovo!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Best purchase ahead of my dissertation writing! I bought this laptop a couple of weeks ago because I need one to write my dissertation (my old laptop was painfully slow). Writing a dissertation still sucks but it is far more enjoyable with this beast of a laptop. It's fast, lightweight, stylish looking. The screen resolution is also incredible. 10/10 would recommend to a friend.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from My impressions of the t480s This is a fantastic device, battery life is so good, entry level performance is more than what you expect, and the build of the device is a fortress-like build compared to other laptops of the same size. But i wish that lenovo had included some graphics card other than intel graphics. However, what could anyone possibly want more than this?

The keyboard is awesome; set up and installing any software super easy. The laptop is fast...the screen is great. The touchscreen amazing. I have zero complaints, over than the battery drains faster than my Mac did...5 stars! If you are on the fence and buy this..you will not be sorry.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from New Lenovo Fan Bought this because my mom had a T470s and loved it. She didn't want to use any other laptop. I did research about all of the T line laptops and thought the T480s would be perfect for her. The Lenovo website was great to navigate through. She loves the laptop even more than the original one she works on. Through research and using her Lenovo laptop I have become a big fan. So, my laptops will strictly be Lenovo from now on. I'm the tech of my family and extended family and enjoy the love and craft put into Lenovo laptops.

Fingerprint sign on is a plus for added security. I found the T480 very easy to set up and configure to my personal preferences. I found the minimal amount of bloatware refreshing. The screen is just the right size. I would recommend purchasing the ThinkPad Thunderbolt Docking Station is you want to use two monitors.

It is very small and would be easily portable if I were to transport. I did also buy a bag to transport in however as expensive as this computer was I can’t imagine taking it anywhere! I am a teacher that is very fearful, with COVID-19, and I will be teaching from home at least sporadically throughout the year. I bought this computer as the specs were really good and I felt I would be able to teach/put work online/have Zoom meetings, and so on effectively with it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wonderful laptop worth every penny This is a great laptop other than the display panel which is average. The good is: (1 it is light 3.0lbs yet still very sturdy and durable, (2) it has a great keyboard, (3) it has a great selection of ports including 2x USB-C as well as a full size SD card slot for removable storage, (4) it iss fast and quite and there is almost no bloatware on Thinkpads, (5) its parts can be replaced/upgraded VERY easily, including the RAM, the SSD, and the battery, which will extend the usability and life of this unit with minimal cost. The only thing that could be better is the display. At 250nits the matte display is generally fine, but sometimes I like to dial up the brightness for whatever reason. 350-400 would have been perfect. But when on sale, this unit is a great great VALUE for the quality, durability and usability that it provides. The T4x0s line is the slimmer version of T4x0 line and is the perfect balance between portability and Thinkpad flexibility/upgradeability. I bought an x1 Carbon last year and even though it was a half pound lighter, I did not like it as much because I could not upgrade the components myself and therefore had to order the unit with higher end components for which Lenovo charges a hefty premium. Get the T480s or T490s folks. It's the quintessential Thinkpad.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Reliable concept, new upgrades. Amidst the Covid-19 crises, it became quickly apparent and necessary in purchasing a reliable and afforable laptop. As the spectrum in computer hardware/software performances has greatly expanded in the last decade, the decision in choosing the best laptop suited to our needs wasn't easy. We needed a laptop that would satisfy student/business needs, while being light, with long battery life, and have quality performance. Though, our family may not be able to purchase laptops/computers often, we have been Lenovo users and will most likely share this one, too or given to our brother. The T480s isn't meant to be flashy or to be a gaming powerhorse, but is a durable, light, reliable laptop that can accomplish many of the tasks required of it. As we are using it for business/student purposes, many programs and internet tabs are operating at once, but the T480s doesn't seem to slow down. Though, there may be a light fan sound at times when operating at high stress usage, it quickly cools down after use. The battery life may be good, but sometimes, when the laptop is not in use, thr battery can decrease. It can be used for light gaming, but again, its main purpose is to be a business/student laptop. If you don't mind a plain looking square with some impressive surprises in its chassis, then this is the laptop for you.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from From work laptop to personal Very dependable laptop, able to handle some tough love. I decided to purchase the T480S after having such a great experience using a T460 as a work computer for the past 3 years. The 480S is surprisingly a lot more thinner than I had expected which is great. I did conduct a side-by-side comparison of my new laptop and my work computer. I was slightly disappointed to find out that the older model had louder speakers and a brighter screen. The fan also appears to run noticeably louder on the 480S. Overall, I am satisfied with my purchase, knowing that the Thinkpad is a reliable and durable brand.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Hidden Gem Great machine. Feels rock solid with a great keyboard. The machine is lighter than the convertible it's replacing while only a fraction of an inch thicker. For that fraction of inch, the machine has a full set of ports plus the ability to upgrade both the memory and the harddrive so that when I again max out my machine's memory and drive space, I can upgrade rather than replace. Some of the reviews I read had complaints that don't match my experience. The screen is more than bright enough. While it's slightly bigger than current ultrabooks, if you're upgrading from an older ultrabook, the size difference is close to zero. The battery life is not what is claimed but is what I expected given that I actually turn on wifi, keep screen at normal brightness and so on. In essence, the market is currently fixated on a couple ideals and the machines that fit those ideals sacrifice everything else including ports, durability and upgradability. This machine comes close to the ideal while keeping all those other things. After all, what good is a tenth of an inch, if you're constantly hanging dongles and port adaptors off the sides.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Exceptionally disappointing performance from T480s I am exceptionally disappointed with the Lenovo T480s. The screen goes off for a moment when plugging in or out of the power adapter. To compound on that, when plugged in and near fully charged, the screen starts to flicker as if it's registering the adapter getting repeatedly plugged in and out of the machine. Light from the camera's LED obscures the camera -- there's a blue light coming from the side of every one of my video calls. The speakers are subpar, and 45 days after purchasing the machine, it got stuck in hibernation mode and I couldn't turn it back on again without resorting to the emergency reboot pinhole under the machine. This was supposed to be a simple, work-from-home excel/googling/email/Netflix machine and it completely failed this low bar.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Welcome to the Windows side Good bang for the buck is the best way to describe this laptop at time of purchase. Due to the corona virus global pandemic and stay at home orders issued in NYC, needed a laptop to connect remotely to my office. My old MacBook pro was being serviced and due to Apple store closures, was unable to retrieve. After doing research on windows laptops for business, Lenovo ThinkPads were among the top rated, especially for IT deployment. Must admit that I was apprehensive at first to own a windows laptop, however this purchase has not only put my apprehensions to rest, I'm extremely satisfied with its capabilities.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A great choice for mobility and upgradability I was looking for a combination of mobility and upgradability laptop and found T480s fits my requests. I haven’t had another Thinkpad since my T420, therefore I am confident with its build quality before purchase. T480s did a great job again. I am pleased with the anti-glare monitor since basically I can hardly find other brand of laptops equipment with anti-glare panel. The form factor is surprisingly slim to me, so is the product weight fits to my demand. I loved I can have the total control of extension ports and not just a single USB-C port. The I5-8250 cpu performs pretty well on my daily tasks especially the 6-core lifts some heavy jobs for me. The fan occasionally kicks in but not a noisy one for me. Even though it’s a 3-cell battery I can get the laptop running for up to 6hrs+. Overall, I’m happy with T480s and would like to recommend to anyone who’s looking for a decent laptop with great build quality and mobility.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Business Essential Tool for Getting the Job Done. As an IT professional who is in the business for 15+ years, ThinkPad's T series always appealed to me as an essential business-focused workstation.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Machine As I was looking to buy a new laptop, I really wanted the flagship X1 Carbon. But I couldn't justify spending that much money. It turns out, the T480s is an excellent machine, and it has exceeded all my expectations! I bought the PC with Windows 10 pre-installed, and I replaced the operating system with Ubuntu Linux without any trouble. I sometimes need windows specific software (such as AutoCad), so I am using the Windows 10 license that came with the computer to run Windows 10 in a virtual machine inside Linux (in accordance with the Microsoft user license). The T480s handles my daily tasks in Linux and the Windows 10 virtual machine with ease. The T480s has 8GB soldered RAM, but it also has a DIMM slot for adding more RAM (which I will probably do in the future). I don't do much gaming, so I opted for the FHD display instead of the much more expensive QHD display. The FHD has been more than sufficient for everything I do. I also really love having the back-lit keyboard. Overall, I highly recommend this computer!!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good T series but different. The T480s is a perennial business laptop with consistent performance and reliability. I have been using 5 different models for years. The current T480s is my latest version and this follows others in quality and value. Though earlier versions were more costly , the newer ones are value based. What I feel is that the T series has lost some edge on the competition like HP and Dell. The differences are screen performance, lack of additional software and performance. The screen is the matted type but loses out to other's due to this as most will not use laptops outdoors. With this- screen brightness is dull- newer users that enjoy streaming video or graphics games will be disappointed. Options for higher grade graphics is limited. The keyboard also feels new or not like the previous versions. Lets just say without the tactile-positive feel. It just feels plain. I understand that price points and competition is a key indicator of what you get......but adding a few more dollars for more bang will set you apart. I am not moving onto other brands but will look forward to Lenovo reviving the glorious-tech savvy nature.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great It's brand new. So far, looks great, performs great. Love the keyboard with separate keys for page up, down, arrow keys, insert/delete/home/end unlike Dell which forces you to use Fn key as well. Keys need just the right amount of pressure unlike Dell which tries to copy Apple keyboard but fails miserably. I think it's the Thinkpad series (originally IBM which make it stand out. I have had other Lenovo products that were as mediocre as Dell.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Moved from a T440S to a T480S. Nice upgrade! I purchased a refurbished T480S that appears to be custom-configured (Machine Type 20L7-SQ2V00). It came with an i5-8250U CPU, a 256GB NVMe SSD, and 8GB of RAM. I had heard a quote on Reddit recently that said something to the effect of "every time a new ThinkPad model is released, the previous model is immediately regarded as an End of an Era." In my case, I have been pretty pleased with my new-to-me T480S. My previous laptop was a ThinkPad T440S which I had upgraded with a new SSD, more RAM, and the T450 touchpad mod, which gives you separate hardware buttons on the touchpad. So far, the build quality on my T480S has felt pretty solid. About my only gripe so far is the lack of a removable battery. There's also a limitation where the Thunderbolt 3 connector is limited to 2 lanes instead of 4, which might be an issue for some eGPU enthusiasts. The T480S is slimmer than my previous T440S, and the improved power efficiency of the latest Intel chipsets makes battery life pretty impressive, even when I'm writing code in Visual Studio or working with Docker and VirtualBox.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The worst computer chase I only open one website page. Nothing runs in the background. However, my totally new computer is actually always heating and the fan keeps turning, the air outlet keeps venting, the sound is so loud. The huge noise makes me really embarrassed and annoy every time. This is the worst experience of computer purchase I have ever had. I ask the costumer service. But they just knew nothing can help. I am really angry. Because it's totally a brand new computer! I don't know what is the value of this high price.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Touchpad stopped working in a month I am extremely disappointed that the touchpad stopped being responsive in a month. Given I use the laptop on an office setting with no liquid spillage, etc. I am not sure why this should have happened. The reason I switched to this laptop was that my previous Lenovo Thinkpad became slow and some keys stopped working for it as well for no apparent reason. Lenovo should do a better job with the keyboard and touchpad

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far so good Just received the laptop this week so its too early to talk about its performance. So far it works great and therefore rating is cautiously optimistic. Ordering thru Lenovo website is fairly straightforward. The only thing that I didn't quite appreciate is the fact that the 30-day return/refund clock begins from the invoice/shipping day as opposed to the day when customer actually receives the product. So in essence the return window becomes shorter by at least 7 days (under normal shipping conditions I will try to come back in 6 months and update this rating based on more involved usage

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very satisfied T480 user I travel a lot and will sometimes carry 2xLaptops at once. One is my company-issued and the other is my personal device. So, weight was a consideration as well as reliability, performance, battery-life and mouse pad. I might add, my company device is also a T480; so, I have been using the T480 laptop for a year+. I felt the Thinkpad reputation was enough for me as it relates to reliability and my most recent first-hand experience. I then looked at some of the other features. My prior laptop had a terrible mouse-pad and pointer. The Thinkpad has a GREAT mouse-pad that is functional and very USABLE. The screen quality meets my expectations and the performance is very good. I am not a 'gamer' or heavy computational user; so, therefore the T480 far exceeds my performance demands. I am sure I have made the best choice for my usage and needs.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great laptop. Shopping experience needs work Long time IBM and then Lenovo laptop user. Replacing my T400s which still works without issue but is in need of a battery and new hinges. I am very happy with the T480s and use it for both work and home. I've upgraded the hard drive and added memory. It runs 64bit Windows 10 Pro and Office 2019 as well as some CAD and graphics software. I replaced my docking station with a USB-C Lenovo unit and am awaiting the new Anker GaN PD wall charger so I can complete my travel kit. On the minus side, I think Lenovo has overthought their online pricing model(s and really need to simplify things by passing the lowest price along to the consumer. I went through a major cash back provider on Black Friday and like others, was initially denied the 12% cash back with subsequent finger pointing between Lenovo and Ebates. Too many steps to get was was offered on what I consider a major purchase.

The form factor is very important as well. Now I do not even have any doubt, if I should take my laptop with me, while on a go, to use when I have some free time: it is small and lightweight. So, if you combine that with almost instantaneous power up/down operation and incredible battery life - it goes, where I go :-

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Computer! I had a different brand slim/lightweight computer for 10 years, still have it and runs great to this day! At the time, you could only get a 128 GB hard drive and it had only an I3 Chip. It was finally running some things a little slow and decided it was time for an upgrade (Jan 2019, My membership club had this computer for its members. I wanted at least a 512GB hard drive with an I7 processor and this fit the need with all the ports I needed. The battery life does go a long way...I'm very impressed with the battery life!!!!!!!! Additionally, this computer is about the same weight and size as my older laptop.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect computer for engineering student I'm an electrical engineering student and needed a laptop that was fast, durable, and without gimicky frills.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Very worthwhile purchase! This is my third ThinkPad purchase--I purchased the T480s to replace an aging ThinkPad--now I wish I had done it sooner! The screen display is crisp, the keyboard is precise, and the built in mousepad is more responsive than what I am used to. The facial recognition security feature is a must! Lenovo's lives up to their word concerning battery life--I am getting about 12 hours of use on one charge, although this is with the maximum battery life setting--no more worries about having to find power ports during continental air travel. Best computer purchase that I have done in a long time! I wish that I could perform as well as ThinkPad!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from High quality computer, several build problems The computer construction and quality was overall very good. Lenovo has also been spectacular with me, rapidly shipping and responding. As my computer shipped broken, I was able to send it in very easily with a quick return expected. But the couple of errors it shipped with were glaring, nearly making it unusable. My cpu got insanely hot under very low loads, reaching the thermal throttling point of 100C very quickly, with only a couple tabs open on chrome, unless I was at the lowest possible power setting. This is unacceptable, and far outside manufacturer promises. My track pad, if at all dirty or my fingers at all sticky, would make the cursor skip wildly across the screen, sometimes simply refusing to register motions which when repeated exactly would register on the third or fourth attempt. When plugged in and at 100% battery, the screen would flicker rapidly as the computer decided whether to connect to the thunderbolt or simply run without charge. I went through and downloaded all of the relevant drivers from the manufacturer website, updating them, and had no success. I feel like it is a great computer, but simply shipped with some crippling issues somehow as I don't seem to be seeing many similar complaints. I hope this is a one - off event.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Ultrabook with discrete graphics card: light and f I ordered the T480s as part of the Green day sale, and I am delighted! After 10 years of various and sundry hand-me-downs I finally bit the bullet and ordered one with all the specs I wanted. It runs fast and cool, it renders 15 minutes of video in about 10 minutes. I play games, I carry it with me. It's light, it's fast, it's slim but I don't notice the loss of screen real estate (my last laptop was a couple inches bigger in the screen. You'll be saying "well of course, after hand me down computers anything is better." That's true. But what's also true is I worked in IT for a long time and I do know what a new computer should be like. The last time I bought a fully kitted out computer it was a Dell XPS, back in the day when those were consistently reliable. I have only had this one a few weeks but so far I'm very satisfied. Two complaints: one, ups lost the package and it was a week and more trying to get it after it got lost. But Lenovo's service getting it back was excellent. Two: the fingerprint reader fails more often than it succeeds. I'm not sure if that's Microsoft's reading software or the hardware or both. I haven't used the touchscreen as much as I thought I would, but it's early yet. I definitely wish it had a yoga hinge, but I needed the discrete graphics card more. In short, an excellent all around machine.

It has the battery life, portability, and build quality to be considered an “ultrabook.” Yet it is beefed up just enough to check every other box I had. It has enough cooling capacity that it doesn’t throttle and the fans are never annoying. It has as many replaceable parts as can be practical on a laptop. It has multiple USB C and USB A ports, full size hdmi and a recessed full size SD card reader. It’s very configurable with options that for the most part aren't overpriced. I couldn’t find another laptop quite like it. And so far, it’s worked perfectly for me.

This is a small GPU but is certainly helpful for basic GPGPU programming. I can see the clear difference in video quality with hardware acceleration. Overall I am happy with this laptop. Please note that X1 carbon seems to have even better SSD and screen options than this model. So far, in my normal usage, the battery is certainly not 15 hr but surely 6-7 hours.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A truly solid Thinkpad! I've been using this laptop for a few weeks now and I'm pretty pleased with it so far. I use it for business as well as for personal tasks (including 3D modeling) and streaming, I don't use it for gaming. Facial recognition works perfectly, which is great. The battery life is impressive - even when I'm using the laptop heavily and continuously, the battery will last all day and well into the evening. The keyboard has just the right resistance, but the screen, which is flat and dull, is a bit of a disappointment, especially when I have an X1 Yoga to compare it to! As far as performance, the laptop is very quick and responsive, even when I'm multi-tasking between multiple apps and endless browser tabs. It will sometimes lose its wifi connection, but, to be frank, I'm not entirely sure whether it's the laptop or my service provider that has the issue. I haven't had a chance to use the webcam, but I am sad that it doesn't have a cover like my W510 did. It would be nice be feel secure in my privacy. I have seen the camera light turn on when I wasn't using it and that was really disconcerting. Overall, though, I'm happy with this laptop and will often choose to use it instead of my X1 Yoga, which is only a few months old.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great laptop so far! Just 2 minor issues. I love it so far. It’s a very solid workstation. Two complaints, however, is that it arrived with minor, barely noticeable smudges on the lid (top cover of the laptop). In addition, the screen seems to have a brighter part on the top left that’s noticeable when the whole screen is black (black wallpaper for example or when it’s booting up with the Lenovo logo) which bothers me sometimes. It might just be some dust behind the LCD panel from the factory I’m not really sure. I hope they do a better job on taking care of parts when building the laptop next time. Other than that, GREAT laptop overall!!! Would definitely buy again.

My only complaints are that it currently doesn’t work with my Lenovo Thunderbolt dock that is new within the last 4 months - seems like a firmware update should be able to fix it but I found it strange. It would also be great if there was a magnetic connector for the power cable - it always scares me that a small bump (or kids running through the power cord) would snap the connector.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Material-wise an excellent laptop This is a very powerful laptop with a bunch of ports and a nice display (not super bright, but it's plenty enough for me). Personally, I like the keyboard, and I don't mind the Fn key in the bottom left. Anyway it's easy to switch the Ctrl and the Fn key with the Lenovo Vantage software. I like the fact that I can open and fix/replace components in this laptop, and I'm willing to sacrifice the better trackpad and hinge I would get with a Macbook for that. The real problem is the software. It came with a 2017 release of Windows 10 Pro and some very old drivers (I bought the laptop in sept 2018, the software was more than 1 year old). It was faster for me to reinstall everything from scratch. Plus, the USB port on the right doesn't support external SCSI drives (a lot of external hard drives use SCSI controllers). This problem is purely software related. It worked for a while, and Windows did some kind of automatic driver installation while I was using my external hard drive, and it stopped working. I opened a ticket on the terrible Lenovo support website, I still haven't received an answer (opened 2 weeks ago). TLDR: perfect laptop if you know your way around a bit. You only need Lenovo Vantage from the Microsoft Store, Lenovo did put all the old utilities inside this not-that-great-but-good-enough app. For the record, I got the T480s i7-8650U 16GB-RAM 1TB-NVMe 2560x1440 display without touch capacity. Note to self: Windows 10 scaling is a total mess. My main screen is 100%, my laptop screen is 150%. Compared to MacOS it's terrible (not a big deal for me, maybe it is for you)

The first time I ordered it, I missed the option for backlit keyboard because the section to order that feature showed a pulldown menu with the first option labeled "English". The backlit keyboard in my opinion has a better feel (the keys are smooth).I just thought that the other options were other languages. I had to re-order with the backlit keyboard selected and return the other. Also love the Windows 10 Hello login with camera (be sure to order the 3d camera).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Five-Stars So Far I needed a solid, consistent laptop for general university courses; nothing gimmicky, just quality performance. So far, that's precisely what the T-480s has given me. I've only had it for two weeks, but if it continues to perform as it has for these two weeks, I imagine I won't have to buy another laptop for the rest of my college career - and quite possibly beyond. I think I'm going to make some of my fellow students on campus wish they had purchased one these bad boys instead of... you know. I'm not the most tech savvy of customers, so I can't rattle off benchmark stats and arcane programmer jargon, I can just tell you that I'm pleased so far. I'll update this review if I find something amiss, but I doubt that I will.

This laptop is so thin and very light! Much better than what o was expecting. Solid construction, satisfying keyboard, and of course good hardware running. It boots up quickly and hasn't flinched for any SPSS programming I've run thus far. This will definitely last me through grad school and beyond as a portable work computer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from So far so good The first one I got had some hiccups but Lenovo was quick to replace it and now everything is running smoothly. I only had the T480s for a few weeks but it's been great so far. Keyboard is good, chassis is light, everything works as it should. I think performance on this one beats a lot of more expensive rigs. The Mx150 dGPU however was probably a waste of money. Given that right now it's the same price as the X1 it is a bit of a question which one to get. I had an X-line Thinkpad before and it had serious overheating issues so I picked this one for the better thermals. The X1 will have better peripherals (screen and track-pad for sure, maybe better keyboard too but the T480s is plenty good) so it depends on your preferences. I wish the T480s had a glass track-pad and a higher quality FHD screen than it would be a no-brainer. Word of advice: unless you need 1080p to match the resolution of other screens you work with (like I do) go with the WHQD screen, the FHD is kinda meh.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Solid Laptop, Great for Programming I recently purchased this laptop and I have been very impressed with its overall quality. I thought I would write about five aspects of the laptop that were the most influential on my positive rating or just things that are good to know. 1. Ergonomically speaking, this laptop is very well built. The top surface where you place your wrists is solid and does not have a flimsy plastic feeling, something I have experienced on older laptops. 2. I did research before hand on the quality of the keyboards on Lenovo laptops and found that they seem to have a reputation for being high quality; this laptop definitely lives up to that reputation. As a programmer, I have found that the keyboard allows me to type very fast and accurately and is very comfortable. 3. Again with the keyboard, some years ago I heard that Lenovo had changed the keyboard layout. Given how much fuss people made about missing the old keyboard design I was concerned that I might not like the new one. Fortunately, Lenovo has done a good job with the new design and I have found that I have adjusted to the it very quickly. Not only does it not hamper my ability to do programming, I now prefer it over the old one. 4. The laptop also doesn't get too hot when watching videos. If I watch videos for an hour with the computer in my lap it starts getting warm, but not what I would consider hot or uncomfortable. 5. Finally, an important feature for me was the location of the headphone jack and the USB ports. The headphones plug into the left side of the laptop, which allows me to use my external mouse without the headphone cable getting in the way. Overall I would give this laptop a very positive review. When I need a new laptop in the future I will probably get another ThinkPad.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Light and Fast I purchased from Costco a month ago. After the first several hiccups getting it set up, I am very happy with the purchase. Costco was suppossed to load it with Office 365 and couldn't figure out that never happened, so Microsoft provided excellent service to get me up and running. The machine is amazingly fast, and lightweight. I am just hoping it holds together and doesn't have motherboard issues like my previous Lenovo had after only two years service, which is what prompted me to purchase another computer.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Eh? This Machine is great for your everyday office user; however, at this price point it is radically underpowered. The compensating factor is the overall hap-tics of the machine are great. Smooth mouse decent screen and solid feel. One thing I do not understand is the finish on this machine is super lame. It will scratch or scuff from the smallest amount of contact not to mention people who use lotion on their hands permanently leave hand prints opening up the screen because the finish absorbs the oils in the lotion like a sponge.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Love the light weight and long battery life I bought this one from Costco. It's my 3rd ThinkPad T-series (the first was so long ago, it was an "IBM", not a "Lenovo"...) This T-480s replaces a 9 year old T-400, which I still have (and which is still running Win7). This new T480s is about 1/3 the thickness and 1/3 the weight of the old one. I have been able to do 2 full days of work on battery power - e-mails, Excel, Word, etc., which is light-years ahead of my previous system. I like the system's new compact USB 3/Thunderbolt ports...they're *FAST*. I copied the 50+/- GB of data from my old system to a USB 3.0 thumb drive, and it all downloaded to this system in about 1/2 hour. The placement of the most-used ports - the multiple USBs (including power in), the HDMI, and the Ethernet connector - are all on the same side of the laptop, making it much more convenient to use than if they were spread out on both sides. Smart design, Lenovo! The backlit keyboard on this system is much easier to use in low light than the past design of an overhead LED placed in the lid (near the camera). The lighting on/off and brightness functions are intuitively placed and the keyboard itself is very legible. Speaking of the keyboard, these have the same great motion and click action of past Lenovo (and IBM) keyboards. There's no compromise anyone might feel using this one rather than an external. Downside - I loved my old "7-Row" keyboard on my previous systems - and particularly miss the backward/forward webpage navigation keys near the arrow matrix. I was actually considering buying the 'anniversary' ThinkPad just for the older layout. Downside? I haven't found one yet. This laptop came from Costco configured with 16 GB RAM and a 512 GB SSD drive. The battery on this model is permanently installed - so my one concern is what i'll experience with battery life after the warranty is over. But the permanent battery in this one means it's a bit smaller and lighter than the removable battery in comparable T-480, and the specs say it holds about 40% more energy. I've had this computer for about 2 weeks. Assembly/component issues show up in the first few hours of use, and i've had no issues. Everything seems well screwed-together. *Disclosure* - I have a technology consulting business and have been doing this work for about 40 years. I'd recommend this computer to technical users, general business users, and home users.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excelent laptop! I’m a university student, most of the time I use my laptop for coding and writing essays, with some casual gaming, I used to own an alienware 17, it was a big, heavy and power hungry laptop, it was difficult to carry around the campus. I travel a lot with my car, it was also so dificult to power the computer with a standard power inverter for my car, I have to use one that needs to be directly hooked up to the cars battery in order to deliver the full 400w that the computer need. I did a lot of research on the best laptops that would fit my needs (powerful enough for casual gaming, comfortable to type in, light, no to much plastic, beautiful, powerful to run vms without throttling). I came out with the x1 carbon, it was a great machine, but no option to upgrade ram, and no physical Ethernet port (a must for things I do). So I decide to go with the T480s, it is a great laptop, I’m in love with it, it’s so easy to carry it around, so comfortable, and powerful, build quality is excelent. I feel that this computer will last for years. Something in not so happy with this laptop is the screen, it’s not bad but not great, for the price I paid I was expecting to get something better, other flag is the finger print reader, it’s hard to get it to work sometimes, I end up just using my pin to unlock my computer, much easier than trying to make the reader recognize my finger

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent All-Around Laptop Lightweight, great battery life, and no chassis hot spots make this a laptop that I'm actually comfortable using in my lap. The keyboard's up to the expected ThinkPad standards, the touchpad seems more reliable than the version I had on my previous PC (a T440s), and the screen has excellent resolution (though I haven't given its Windows 10 "touch" features any use beyond a few experiments). I miss the older style docking station (and of course Windows 7's XP compatibility mode), but overall this is an excellent PC and I'm very happy with my purchase.

Though promised to be repaired and sent back in 6 days, after nearly one month, the computer is still on hold in the repair center. This is very annoying !

Rated 5 out of 5 by from only one major problem... The only reason this isn't a five start product is there is a horrendous hardware bug involving the the USB-C video output. If you are trying to connect two external monitors, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. I understand the appeal of USB-C (docking is much nicer), but I think it was a huge mistake not to also include a mini-DP port. I have never had problems with either HDMI or DP.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Back to a Thinkpad I used an IBM Thinkpad for years then bought a MacBook Air with 8Gb of memory and 500 Gb SSD when it came out. I liked the smaller, compact design, speed and keyboard. However to use Quicken and Quickbooks, which I did daily in my work for nonprofits, and other Windows only programs I installed a virtual Windows desktop, Parallels. I did miss the more robust versions of the Windows Office programs. I used dual 27” Dell monitors but the j5create 350 USB 3.0 that allowed me to use the second monitor did not give a true extended desktop. As Apple updated its operating system—I used the latest developer editions—more often than not I’d find some quirk that slowed down my work. I was not doing heavy photo or video work and did not explore the Mac Media software. I installed Bootcamp but did not like having to restart the Air whenever I wanted to use an Apple program which was mainly to access iCloud. In January of this year, 2019, I decided to switch back to a Thinkpad. I chose the T 480s with 1Tb SSD, 16Gb ram, and HD touch screen because it is a no-nonsense business laptop with the advantages of state-of-the-art design and electronics, terrific keyboard and screen, multiple ports and a form factor that is both handsome and efficient. I’ve now used it for several months and could not be more pleased. I added the dock with Type-C connector and love the convenience and the HDMI/3.0 dual monitor connection for a true extended desktop. My monitors do not have Display ports so I cannot daisy-chain them which the dock would allow. I am again a Thinkpad owner and am very happy to be one.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from The T480s is the Leader of the Pack for business. I looked at many computers and tried them at the stores. Lenovo T480s just kept coming back to the top of my list. The computer is SOLID and Rugged and durable. It is lightening fast. It has all the latest features that one would need in a business computer. I use mine on the go and travel internationally. I'm really tough on laptops. I've been using this one for 3 months now and am extremely impressed and satisfied. The SSD Drive is a treat to show off to others with a standard "moving parts" hard drive. I tell them to count as my computer boots up from full off and not sleep. It takes about 4-5 seconds. The battery life is much better than I expected and it recharges very fast in about an hour to almost full charge. The keyboard is so nice to type on. It is pretty much a full size keyboard and is backlit. The backlighting on the keyboard is important as I like to work later than my wife and I can easily see the keys in the dark as I type away. The keyboard is also quiet so it doesn't wake her up. I love the touchpad and ease and accuracy of movement. There are plenty of ports. I'd like one more USB but you get the new Thunderbolt port instead and it's simple and very inexpensive to get a USB port expander The computer is light in spite of it's ruggedness. The sound quality is great. I really don't watch movies and such so can't speak to the quality of the display as I am a business user. The display seems equal or better to anything I've had in the past. Even small things like the AC Adapter are well built and sturdy. I love the fingerprint sign in and it recognizes my fingerprint way faster than my last computer and I don't have to be very precise as to how I lay my finger on the sensor. I have had many computers and quite a few Lenovo computers over the years. I'm never disappointed and always impressed.

Form factor is light and slick, keyboard is comfortable, backlit keyboard (optional is fantastic and the overall performance/speed is fantastic. Loving every minute of it!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Elegant and light Elegant, light, material feels nice and luxurious. Battery life is very satisfactory. The only problem I have encountered so far, after using it for 2 weeks, is the fan noise. It is rather loud *sometimes* and tends to flip on and off every couple of seconds. This doesn't happen when using the battery and I suspect it has something to do with 4-core performance that warms up the LT. Still, I'd expect the fan to kick in for a minute or two instead of 'flipping' every 5 seconds and overall be a bit quieter.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Thinkpad T480s good machine for Ubuntu 18.04 Upgraded to T480s with i5 with 1920 display from T450s with i7, maxed out the RAM at 24GB, pulled the 256GB Windows SSD and added 1TB NVMe SSD and installed Ubuntu 18.04 and Linux kernel 4.20.13. No issues. 5-7 hours on single, non-replaceable battery, depending on usage. Keyboard and red mouse button are the good standard Lenovo Thinkpad items software people want. In retropect, 1TB now seems like overdoing it, since everything is cloud-based anyway. Could have just wiped Windows on the 256SSD that came standard. Decided on i5 rather than i7 after reading reviews (Tom's Hardware? that pointed out better sustained performance with the i5 due to fan design.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good end to a rough start I've owned ThinPad's since about 1992. Never had a problem with them until this one. The issue was from the time it was delivered the screen randomly going blank. Onsite service replaced everything in the unit over multiple calls and the problem remained. They finally replaced the machine and the new one works perfectly. Speedy, good screen resolution, long battery life. I really like the machine. Just took months and lots of calls to finally resolved the issue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Voltage leak for onboard sound card. The machine build is incredible, very robust and sturdy. Unfortunately, I am in the process of receiving a third machine. Both the first and second machines I have gotten have this horribly annoying issue with audio. When using the speakers, or even the 3.5mm headphone jack, there is white noise emitting from the onboard speakers. In other words, when listening to music through external speakers or headphones, the laptop will emit white noise from it's speakers. It is SO annoying after a while. Worst part is, it's not driver related. I can recreate the issue before boot. It's frustrating because for such an expensive machine, there shouldn't be a voltage leak like this. I'm not entirely confident in the next machine having fixed the problem. When I called tech support to describe the issue they said, "this is a very common issue with our boards." Okay..? Wouldn't it be in Lenovo's best interest to fix the problem in order to stop frequent exchanges? I really want to keep with the Thinkpad line but if my next one has the same issue I will be switching. According to some online research, it isn't just t480s boards that have this issue.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good laptop, ok experience otherwise Better than the X1 Carbon I'd purchased (that had a fried motherboard in two minutes after first startup...). Faster delivery, too. Weak documentation from Lenovo about how to get the software I'd purchased with the system, and then a long hassle to get the programs. That's more a failing of Lenovo. Also, Lenovo keeps asking me to create new logins for Lenovo ID, which I've done a half dozen times and it seems to never find that ID. Not keen on the forcing of Edge on users by MS, as it's fast but sites aren't built to use it's shortcuts.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice machine, but disappointed This purchase is to replace my T430s. Biggest complaint is the touch pad, I miss the buttons at the bottom of the touch pad that make navigating easy. I've had to slow down the pad because it is so sensitive, but I'm still struggling with things like my screen enlarging or closing, opening and movement of windows I had no intention to move. The buttons are now built in to the bottom of the touchpad, but you have to be super specific where you hit in order to get the action you want. Super disappointing. Audio has a tin-ish sound. Machine doesn't have a lid latch, so when I put it in my backpack I have to be careful that it doesn't accidentally open. In general my previous model case seems more robust and able to handle the harsh conditions of going in and out of a backpack and the constant travel I do. I'm also disappointed in the keyboard back light, which I use a lot and paid for as an addition to this laptop. It seems as though the lighting comes from the top of the keyboard down and in general isn't as bright or effective to that of my T430s. They have also removed some of the quick buttons like mute and volume increase/decrease which made things quick and easy. I'm also disappointed at the lack of recovery media either with them machine or on a partitioned drive. Now I have to order it from Lenovo and in my case it only allows for a digital download, adding hours of effort to setting up my new machine. Also took a long time to get the machine. I customized it, but not with anything crazy that should justify a month plus to receive the shipment. Positives - beautiful, clear screen. Footprint of the machine and weight are fabulous. Machine seems fast, but I haven't fully transitioned to the new machine with the applications I use on a day to day basis.

My daughter is off to college and the college has stiff requirements for their students computers. I have been happy buying Lenovo for years now, but always shop around. I landed here again as this was the most I could find for the money. This computer is really fast. The sound is great. Image is great. (I wanted this to work as entertainment as well as work. It's for college after all.) This is very light.( My daughter wanted that.) But the frame and keyboard feels well built. I'm not worried about it's longevity. The battery has lasted fine for summer Netflixing that has been taxing it.Overall very pleased. If anything changes I will update this review.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from ThnkPad is still ThinkPad Always used ThinkPad for business and personal use. This model is replacing a T500 of 2009 heavily modified - btw I think you should always provide assistance for old model without me going in aftermarket t replace motherboard. Solid and reliable, it provides all features that might be needed for business or personal use. It is getting a little pricey though compared to competitors

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lenovo T480s - a great companion I bought this almost 20 days back and have to say that this is the best laptop I ever bought. The biggest problem with the smaller sized laptops are overheating but this one is very different. I work for normally 13 - 14 hours per day and the battery is also great.. even with moderate usage with heavy programmimng and online video and learning the battery lasts for 7 - 8 hours and with normal web surfing it runs for 13 hours....

Rated 5 out of 5 by from work computer -> does the job This is the computer I use for work and it does everything I need. (MS office, simple CAD and orbital simulations.) I wouldn't mind if it also had a dedicated GPU but for the money, I think it's a very decent machine. One thing: This is a replacement for a 2 year old T470s which died in a weird blue screen death spiral. Hoping this works for longer... but I'm backing up weekly/daily out of paranoia.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Overall - Solid computer The computer feels solid, which is great. It's light and powerful. My only complaint is that the NVME-SSD inside is not a samsung. IT's a toshiba, which are still good but the WRITE speed will cap at about 1300MB/s. The Samsungs can hit 3500MB/s write. The quad core CPU is wonderful, the screen is the best I've ever seen and I really like my port options. I would give it a 5/5 if it weren't for the cheaper nvme ssd they pick for you. Still good, though. 1300MB/s is freaking great. (but not the best, nor close to it)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great High Quality Notebook I bought this laptop after doing a lot of research online and comparing features, technology and of course prices. I was initially looking for 15" notebook with 8th gen Intel processor but ended up with this 14" notebook from Lenovo. What I realy liked wa the unmatched Lenovo quality, best industry specs and components, carbon fiber light weight body, and the none glare display. It is not the most affordable notebook for its specs but definitely the best value overall.

Performance is solid, I love how it performs and the construction is solid and lightweight, I love that it comes with plenty of ports, the touchpad is good but still far from the mac touchpads. I bought a graphics thunderbolt dock, the one with the nvidia GTX 1050 card and works amazing, 100 fps on Fortnite so I play sometimes with my son. Bottom line I am happy and I recommend it.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A good laptop but the quality is slipping!? I have a T460 for business and wanted a replacement laptop for personal use. Lenovo has been my default for work since it was owned by IBM. I liked the keyboard and the industrial strength case. I purchased thisT480 from Costco and was a bit disappointed. It was a good PC but something was off. It was light but does not seem to be as well built as my T460. May be it was me but it felt "flimsy." I was expecting better considering the price premium over HP, Acer and other PC brand. Nevertheless, it is functional and useable. Anyone out there has an opinion on if Lenovo is "cheaping" out on their products to increase profit margin? :-)

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great design and wonderful specs I tried both the T480 and the T480s. The T480s is much thinner and lighter. It's got narrower edges around the display which makes it look even nicer. The T480s without a exchangeable battery module eliminates an external movable component, for me it's a plus.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Meet and somehow exceed my expectation I have owned Thinkpad R52, T410, and X201 over my student era, and I am a die-hard thinkpad fan. I know T480s is not the top of the line right now, but I have passed the period of chasing the best. i5, 8G, 256 SSD is my minimum requirement, and this one meets my budget. My work does not rely on high performance laptop, and I am only using it for light home office and personal entertainment. The touch screen is a bonus. The battery life is surprisingly good, I can put it unplugged all day. Of course, I am comparing this to my old X201 and my wife's 5 years old Macbook Air. I am still trying to get use to the chocolate keyboard. And I like it can connect my mouse with bluetooth thus saving me an extra USB port. And HDMI and thunderbolt 3, nicely done, Lenovo! That's why I don't like MacBooks.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from OLD TO NEW I used a Toshiba Laptop for over 10 years in my law office. I never had updated my Outlook software in that period of time. Then for some unknown reason, the computer directed me to update and I accommodated its command; my Toshiba was hit with 47 updates. My poor little, elderly notebook ground to a screeching halt and so did its poor, old owner. Time to mirror what was left onto a new notebook. I shopped at a few tech stores which touted other brands, such as Dell and HP, but I held back not satisfied with the demos I used. Then, I hired an IT person who was thoroughly convinced that the Lenovo Think Pad was the best model to buy. Not only did he purchase one for me but he had also purchased Lenovo Notebooks for his clients and his family. This IT person was thoroughly enamored with Lenovo's speed, capabilities and durability. I followed his suggestion and purchased the Lenovo ThinkPad T480 (14") and I could not be happier. The ThinkPad starts as fast as an Apple and is more than capable of dealing with an old user, like me. I would recommend , in a heart beat, the Lenovo to my family, friends and associates.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Upholds the Thinkpad brand I have owned Thinkpads beginning with the T23 almost two decades ago. When it became time to retire my T430, I considered The Macbook, and Macbook Air as an alternative- but after research chose the T480s, and I'm very happy I did. The T480s did not disappoint- the great keyboard we have become accostomed to, still user serviceable for future RAM and HD upgrades, and the overall quality- but in a lighter, more compact package.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect for college I got this about a week ago, and it has been great. I haven't actually tried gaming or anything on it for fear that I might slow down the computer, but for my purposes of quick searches and tasks, it has been amazing. I went from Windows 7 to this, and the transition has been seamless as they are surprisingly similar in how it is laid out. I would recommend this to any college student debating between buying a $2500 Macbook Pro or some random Windows laptop. Being tech savvy is probably better if you're scared of viruses, but I got a 1 year subscription for McAfee Web Protection with this purchase, and so far it has worked well.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Hardware great, software less so I bought the ThinkPad just prior to attending a out-of-town conference. That was my first mistake. At the airport, the screen froze and I could do nothing to unfreeze it. I did call support services upon arrival at my hotel, and provided advice for an easy fix. Logging on was frustrating so I abandoned it for the remaining part of the trip. My diappointment is software related. I didn't realize would have such a controlling role in its functioning. The computer itself feels good - nice touch of the keys, and I'm looking forward to using the back lit feature (one I figure out how to turn it on).

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Mobile Platform for a Soccer Coach This has been a fantastic mobile computing platform. It spends its days waiting in my backpack alongside my soccer cleats, ball, and cones waiting and ready to run our club and keep my teams organized. When I am not at my day job, I am spending my time at our soccer pitches as the club president, general manager, director of coaching, and academy coach. All the administration aspects of our club are run on a web based application and I needed a rugged computer with long battery life without the typical bulk and massive price tag that comes with most rugged computers. This laptop and I think all ThinkPads are milspec rated... It stands up to the demands I put on it. Rain, dust, bumps, and the hot Alabama summer days have been no match for this powerhouse. Along with that, it also has a long battery life and has lasted all day while running a 12 hour summer soccer camp. Windows Hello makes it possible to just pull it out of the bag and its ready almost as soon as I flip open the lid. The only thing I would have done different would have been to order it with 5g capability. This laptop last way longer than my iPhone XS Max that I am tethering to for internet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Met Expectations This laptop is nearly perfect. Before getting this T480s, I had an X131e which I purchased for use in school and it served me well, I still use it as a network server. When you're buying a ThinkPad, you're buying a quality business laptop that is may be overkill for some, for those who know what they're buying, here are some of the reasons why I purchased this laptop. 1. Keyboard and TrackPoint - the keyboards on ThinkPads are known for their excellent key travel despite fitting in a small size, and I enjoy using the TrackPoint (on the X131e, the horrible trackpad forced me to use the TrackPoint, but on the T480s, where the trackpad is way better, the TrackPoint is still nice to use. 2. Connectivity - Unfortunately, this is something that is being lost with the new T490 series and most of the other laptops on the market. This is a main reason why I purchased a ThinkPad as well. Ethernet, Full-size SD card reader, and a couple of full-size USB ports. You need a dongle for Ethernet, even on the X1 Extreme. And the X1 Carbon only has a micro-SD card slot. 3. All this while still maintaining a small form factor. Shoutout to r/ThinkPad for help choosing this laptop over newer options. I did come into some trouble with this laptop when I first received it, it had a glaring stuck pixel in the center of the screen, but the service depot repaired and returned the laptop promptly, free of charge since it was a day-old laptop.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Disappointing laptop experience Bought laptop from thinkpad, which are known for its reliability/durability. First, the screen was disappointing at first place when I got it. Brightness was of course low since it was 250 nit touchscreen display, colors were way off also with couple dead pixels. After all that, I still used almost a year and a half, and now I'm getting some serious image retentions on my screen that just captures whole top part of my chrome search bar if I use chrome for more than 5 minute, and have to turn off my screen more than 5 minute to remove that. And last, it might just be caused by the way I use a laptop, but the battery life is almost already at 80%, which was never issue on my other laptops. Never had battery issues on my other laptops for 3+ years, but already feeling and seeing the battery life is going worse. The only reason that I bought this machine was to get a good keyboard and spend good 4~5 years on it without any problem. Besides the keyboard nothing was that complimentary on this laptop for me. Nice keyboard though!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from I just wish it had a toggle for the touchpad. I was reluctant at first. I miss the old days of Thinkpads being mighty bricks to be thrown around. A laptop heavy enough to defend off the encroaching hoards. But you know what, this is pretty good too. The build quality is solid. And the keyboard feels about as good as you can expect out of a laptop keyboard. It'd nice and ridged without noticeable deck flex. The only minor issue is instead of a button to turn off the mousepad, they put on a lenovo button which...is just useless. If I could remap the button to shut off the touchpad I could, but Lenovo...No one cares about the Lenovo Connect or whatever nonsense you mapped the key to. I get it, you want to advertise your brand, but just make it a toggle for the touchpad, but not enough an issue to take off a star.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lenovo Think Pad T480s - best laptop for us Awesome laptop! This is the fourth T480s we have bought. They all still work great, but we need lots of laptops. The newer T490 sucks because it does not have upgradable RAM and does not have a SD card slot which totally sucks if you are a serious photographer. Three of our T480s laptops have touch screens which we love!!! Totally worth the extra money. We think the T480s is the most durable, reliable, best performing laptop Lenovo has ever built, and we use ours on a boat sailing around the world - a very challenging environment for a laptop! It is easy to DIY plug-in upgrade to 1 TB or 2TB Crucial SSD and 24 GB RAM if you buy a 8GB soldered RAM model with an empty RAM slot. We hope Lenovo continues to make this model because if they do we will continue to buy more of these for years to come.

I mostly use it for writing so I don't have high cpu demands, but I need a long lasting battery and dependable functionality. So far, this laptop has delivered. It is fast, the chassis is streamlined and light, the keyboard and touchpad/pointer are intuitive and efficiently placed. I can switch the keyboard from English to Spanish easily (I know this is an OS setting more than a computer function, but I'm talking about the ease of changing I/O settings through the keyboard. This is a touchscreen too, so it is nice to have that option sometimes. It powers up fast. I got the basic i5core, 8 Gb RAM with 256 Gb storage and it is more than enough for me for now.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great Office Laptop This has been the best work laptop I've ever had. The speed is top-notch and it's super lightweight so I can carry it to meetings around the office as well as offsite. If you're looking for a fast laptop for office/admin professionals, this is a good option.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from When Everything Counts The team of executives, operations, and sales associates at our company has used various Asus, Apple, Dell, HP, and Apple, and Lenovo products since 2010. I can tell you that this machine is by far the most satisfying to use, trusted for reliability, and value rich of all mentioned. As a result in 2017 we decided to go Lenovo exclusively and have not yet turned back.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Reliable Laptop I have had this laptop for about a month now and so far its been very good and reliable for all my needs. I needed a strong computer for processing data without slowing down other features and this one has not disappointing. The screen resolution is not the very best, the colors are very muted and a bit dark. The built in camera performs about the same. Even with bright lights its very grainy so don't expect much there.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Amazing Device - ThinkPad T480s I was amazed with the device the moment I opened it. The hardware is well crafted and gives great feeling of using it. The performance is second to none. I took seconds to boot to Windows. Applications performance is great on my new ThinkPad. The battery stays long. Most importantly, it fit for business use perfectly. I love my new laptop - Thank you Lenovo for this art piece.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Solid Build It feels really solidly built. Perfect for those who need a light laptop that will deliver great performance. Unlike other computers, I don't this one will fall apart in a few years; I anticipate it lasting a long time. Deducted 1 star for soldered ram.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Wonderful laptop worth every penny This is a great laptop other than the display panel which is average. The good is: (1 it is light 3.0lbs yet still very sturdy and durable, (2) it has a great keyboard, (3) it has a great selection of ports including 2x USB-C as well as a full size SD card slot for removable storage, (4) it iss fast and quite and there is almost no bloatware on Thinkpads, (5) its parts can be replaced/upgraded VERY easily, including the RAM, the SSD, and the battery, which will extend the usability and life of this unit with minimal cost. The only thing that could be better is the display. At 250nits the matte display is generally fine, but sometimes I like to dial up the brightness for whatever reason. 350-400 would have been perfect. But when on sale, this unit is a great great VALUE for the quality, durability and usability that it provides. The T4x0s line is the slimmer version of T4x0 line and is the perfect balance between portability and Thinkpad flexibility/upgradeability. I bought an x1 Carbon last year and even though it was a half pound lighter, I did not like it as much because I could not upgrade the components myself and therefore had to order the unit with higher end components for which Lenovo charges a hefty premium. Get the T480s or T490s folks. It's the quintessential Thinkpad.
