Unfortunate but almost every laptop is like that now. If you’re lucky you can replace the slower M.2 SSD.

- errcorrectcode 5y agoIt's not inevitable. They took a cue from Apple to make dumb product decisions like followers. I bailed out from Lenovo at the T480 stop because the T490 was contaminated by Apple KoolAid. Dual internal batteries for real 10 hour runtime, 64 GiB RAM (Intel and Lenovo both say it shouldn't work but it does. memtest86 proved it), quad core i7 (a little old but plenty fast), discrete graphics, plenty of ports, USB-C charging, repairable, good keyboard with spill drain holes, optional magnesium display top cover, mil-spec drop rating, compact, a bit on the heavy side, and swappable external batteries. If I had to buy another laptop today, it would be difficult. Probably another T480.
