ThinkPad X280

With T480, you will need to carefully review offers - the external battery is available in three sizes (24/48/72Wh) , and only the largest option has a battery life advantage. Also, the dual batteries are a budget liability these days as you have to factor in replacement costs for two batteries (aro
