Lenovo ThinkPad T460s Review

Lisa Gade reviews the Lenovo ThinkPad T460s, a 14” thin and light business Ultrabook that weighs 3 pounds. This is the slimmer T series model, refreshed with Intel Skylake Core i5 and i7 ULV 6th generation CPUs and Intel HD 520 graphics (NVIDIA 930M is optional in some countries). This laptop looks almost like the ThinkPad X1 Carbon and X1 Yoga because it’s so slim and tapered. It’s available with 1920 x 1080 matte IPS displays (touch and non-touch) or QHD 2560 x 1440 non-touch with higher brightness and color gamut. It’s passed 8 MIL-STD 810 tests for ruggedness and has a magnesium alloy internal structure.

The laptop starts around $1,000 for a Core i5 with 4 gigs of RAM, 128 gig SSD and 1080p non-touch display. Our 1080p touch model with 8 gigs of RAM and a 256 gig SSD sells for $1,300. It maxes out at 20 gigs of RAM, and there are higher capacity SSD options and PCIe NVMe SSD options. It has a backlit keyboard, optional WiGig, optional 4G LTE, Ethernet and an ample selection of ports.
