Stay one step ahead, no matter where you go

The ThinkPad L480 was built for the road warrior. At 13% lighter and 8% thinner than the previous generation, it will go anywhere with ease.

Forget your password – and your worries

With the option of an integrated touch fingerprint reader and optional infrared camera, you'll never need to remember your password again! Simply touch the fingerprint scanner to access your ThinkPad L480, or use Windows® Hello facial recognition software to login automatically. What’s more, the fingerprint reader thwarts biometric hacking with anti-spoofing technology—that means the fingerprint image is saved inside the chip, and as such, it’s not sent out for login authentication when you sign in.

Your data is protected too, with the discrete Trusted Platform Module (dTPM), which encrypts your information. Lastly, Fast Identity Online (FIDO) enables hardened authentication that wraps your access info in three layers of security. FIDO authentication pertains to your online credentials, when you sign in to websites like Facebook or Google, or make payments via PayPal. This global solution creates better security for online services, reduces costs for organizations, and is simpler and safer for users.

Plus, you’ll never have to hunt for files or photos or meetings again – let Cortana do the work for you!
