I ordered a Lenovo T480, but ended up receiving a T480s instead. At first I was a bit unsure, but it actually turned out to be a nice upgrade, so I’m pretty happy overall. The laptop arrived in really good condition and works perfectly with no issues so far. The T480s is lighter and feels a bit more premium than what I originally ordered, so in the end I feel like I came out better off. Customer service was solid too. There was a mix-up initially, but it was handled and sorted without too much hassle, which I appreciate. All in all, even though it wasn’t exactly what I ordered, I’m pleased with the outcome and happy with the machine.

Exactly as described—working great—fully able to edit the machine to my needs also (for windows users: just update your drivers and the additional Lenovo updates and it’ll run smoothly). Installed a Linux distro on the laptop and I’m having loads of fun already. Great Thinkpad, five stars. Very fast service too!

Delighted with it.Was very well packed and despatched quickly. Looks to be unused. The keyboard turned out to be US English, but as I will use it 99.9% of the time via an external keyboard, that's OK.
