        24GB isn’t that unsurprising, machine probably came with a single 8GB stick (possibly soldered) and a 16GB stick was added.

      Sorry didn't realise the RAM was that good. My bad, blind eye.

    • sparklemotion on 30/07/2022 - 13:47

      T490s is objectively worse imo. Soldered RAM and no Ethernet.

    • jjsnacks on 30/07/2022 - 15:20

      Yeah I got a t490s for $415 in a recent ebay deal, but it has an i5 processor, shame about the lack of Ethernet, but the battery life is amazing and that's what I primarily needed over my t470s

    This is decent value compared to your other deal from a couple of days ago
    Strange you sell the other one with Win11 when its not officially supported, but this with Win10 when this is officially supported ;)

    • xoom on 30/07/2022 - 13:54

      You should be able to upgrade this t480s to win11 for free. My x1 yoga 3rd gen upgraded to win11.

      • opt on 30/07/2022 - 13:57

        I know, this can be easily upgraded, Windows will prompt for an update automatically. but OP could have easily installed Win 11 out of the box. Just pointing out a marketing gimmick thats all

      • Bretttick on 30/07/2022 - 14:30

        Win 11 stinks

  • starcub on 30/07/2022 - 13:55

    interesting you put win11 on 6th gen i7 but windows 10 on 8th gen. I guess with 8th gen, people can upgrade themselves.

    Picked up a x280 fhd i5 8250u for $300, soldered 16gb ram and 512gb ssd.

    $500 mark for this is pushing it. Probably mid 300 to low 400.

    • Covid19 on 30/07/2022 - 15:19

      Do you remember where you bought it Domicron? x280 will do for me.

      • Domicron on 30/07/2022 - 15:52

        Ebay. Was an individual seller. Might be his own one or an IT contractor.

    • blah88 on 30/07/2022 - 17:46

      How did you solder on the 16gb stick? I can't find instructions for this anywhere.

      • Domicron on 30/07/2022 - 18:27

        Came with 16gb soldered.

          +1

          That's a real bargain. x280, 16gb, 512gb for 300. You are a lucky man. I was browsing Ebay for such bargain for quite a while but you, sir, have snagged up a true bargain. I bit the bullet and bought the OP's deal but seeing how quickly it was sold out I guess I am also a bit lucky.

            @blah88: I am a big thinkpad fan, and have had (still have) many thinkpads. $500 is abit too rich for a relatively old spec.

            4core8thread is good for now. But for $500 more, a $1k machine will be more future proof.

            • blah88 on 30/07/2022 - 19:57

              @Domicron: Same here. I am a huge, huge ThinkPad fan as well. Used to have a X230. It had an awesome keyboard, and an awesome retro looks. It died though. A decent ThinkPad for 300 to 400 is a bit rare. X270/T470 is okay but 7th generation Intel is a tad bit slow for me. T480S will serve me well for two three years as I will use it for email and office suite mainly.

    • ozbargain-pashim on 31/07/2022 - 11:47

      That laptop is less upgradable, has less ports, non touch, worse processor, less ram.

      All these make up at least $200 difference so your deal isn’t any better really.

    thats a damn good price. paid almost a grand 2 years ago for my i5 model with a dock.

  • mackaxx on 30/07/2022 - 15:12

    Got one earlier, pleased as I wanted something tougher for a high schooler to cart around. I tried to pay the little bit extra for the 512 SSD but it didn’t update in the cart so just went with the 256
