Go from 0 to 80 in 60

The ThinkPad T490 delivers up to 16.11 hours* of battery life. If you’re running on empty, Rapid Charge provides an 80% charge in just an hour. So, a 60 minute lunch break or a layover is enough to boost your battery up to 12 hours. What more could you need for life on-the-go?

*All battery life claims are approximate and based on results using both the MobileMark® 2014 battery-life benchmark tests. Actual battery life will vary and depends on many factors such as product configuration and usage, software use, wireless functionality, power management settings, and screen brightness. The maximum capacity of the battery will decrease with time and use.

We’ve got your back—and your front

Keep your business data—and your privacy—safe with the comprehensive suite of ThinkShield security features. The discrete Trusted Platform Module (dTPM) encrypts data and works in conjunction with Windows 10 security for even more protection. ThinkShutter, a physical camera cover, blocks the webcam lens so you’re only seen when you want to be. The optional fingerprint reader uses biometrics to log you in with a simple touch.

For your eyes only

As part of ThinkShield security, we offer a combination of hardware and software that work together to ensure what’s on your display is for your eyes only. PrivacyGuard is a built-in privacy filter that makes it so what you’re doing is only visible when viewed head-on – anyone looking from an angle will only see a darkened screen. PrivacyAlert* is integrated software that works with the IR camera to detect when others are looking over your shoulder and notify you of the potential threat with a popup alert.

* Requires the optional IR camera.
