ThinkPad T480

As a student, you might as well come back to MacBook - brand-new Neo is 850 CAD with education discount, or you should be able to find older M chip Air models under 1000 CAD second hand. You get Microsoft Office IIRC, good battery life, good bright screen (some ThinkPads model configs still somewhat

The idea that the t480 is the "last great ThinkPad" is bonkers The t490 was just as well built but thinner, the downside was only 1 sodimm slot and only the (much bigger) internal battery. They kept using pretty much the same parts between the t490, t14, and t14 Gen 2. If you really want both sodimm

I think it's down to influencer video content. There's loads of people out there claiming the T480 is legendarily good and even explicitly that it's outright better than successors. Almost all of the T480's actual benefits as a computer exist solely in 2017 and in people's memories. The batteries wi

Keep in mind it is far from a new laptop. Yes, it has its strong sides, and said characteristics are more or less okay (if you are able to find one nowadays). But in this budget, you can find something with much more modern and beefier CPU. Why T480 and not T14? In this budget, you might be able to

You avoided some t480 USBc power port issues. The Lenovo ThinkPad T480 suffered from a flawed early Thunderbolt firmware and controller design that could corrupt itself and permanently disable USB-C charging, creating a systemic, not merely mechanical, failure mode. By contrast, the Lenovo ThinkPad

4 juta udah nggak dapet banyak sekarang. Tapi beberapa tahun lalu sebelum harga pada naik, masih bisa dapet ThinkPad T14 Gen 2 Intel di 4 juta tipis. Huge upgrade dibanding Intel gen 8-10, Iris Xe emang nge-carry gen 11. Btw, nggak banyak yang bisa diakalin dari Intel gen 8-10 selain matiin patch Sp

I’ve handled many ThinkPads of various different generations, and even though T480’s are good, I also find them overrated (like many people in this thread are stating). Soldered USB-C ports, which is typical for a ThinkPad outside of new new ones Thunderbolt flaw. I’ve bought like 5 T480 laptops to

You asking for something that is very hard to find. “I need the laptop to run smoothly for around 5 years” Budget 250 USD Looking at 7 year old ThinkPads .. I am not trying to be mean but this is almost impossible. I have a w520 that is 15 years old and it works , but I wouldn’t really want to rely

Its popularity has made the T480 one of the most overpriced used ThinkPad models. An 8 year old laptop with a basic, by current standards, 4 core Intel 8th Gen, with weak UHD graphics, and here with a very poor and dim 1366x768 display. If $209 is the price, no. T480, at the right price, is a nice L

The T480 is a significant downgrade in almost everything. Worse display, worse CPU, significantly worse battery, worse trackpad, worse speakers. Keyboard, build quality and operating system are all personal preferences, and the only advantages are more ports and having upgradeable RAM and storage. A
