@@prashantmishra7082 The laptop generates heat from 15 minutes of youtube video, that much of heat my mobile don't generate if I use my mobile for the whole day.
as i saw you have tested both L480 and T490 with same specs. but for video editing L480 took 24 mins and T490 17mins for rendering . why there is significant different even they have same specs.
The main difference between the two is the CPU and RAM. L480 i5-8250u has a boost speed of 3.4GHz while the T490 i5-8265u has 3.9GHz. As well, the T490 has soldered RAM, which will provide a slightly faster experience as opposed to a DIMM slot (theoretically).
I have the L490 with NVME instead of 2.5 SSD, I want to use the WLAN slot for extra storage but unsure which to buy. Recommend 512GB or 1TB which would go into the slot?
Bought one i5 8350 version a few days ago, makes a great Hackintosh with Open Core . Unfortunately MacOS won't read the NVME drive in the 2.5 bay, but I installed a WD SN520 NVME in the WWAN PCIe Slot so it's basically an improvement on a 13 inch 2016 MacBook Pro i7 I have with the extra ports, nicer keyboard, although speakers are no match. I didn't remove the WWAN card for it so far, just stacked it disconnected over the NVME, maybe it works as a heatsink... Wondering if I can install a SATA as additional storage.
@@HaisteComputerRepair Yeah it's great everything works, day 2 and I got the internal nvme working too so super-pleased. Going to triple boot with Windows, Linux. A shame they cut down the upgrade features on later models. Not sure which wifi 6 card can be used now...
@@vijinho Yes, the best features of upgrades are becoming less available. But not with every device, there are some that still look interesting to tinker with.
@@HaisteComputerRepair Update - installed a cheap Intel AX210 NGF to replace the 9265 wifi/bluetooth, no problems with all OSs. Also got some red silicone plugs for the ports. Those very cheap off AliExpress, and also 2 x 16GB DDR4-2400 off eBay. I did try a cheap SATA connector cable but it didn't work (tried to use both NVME and SATA in the 2.5 disk bay). The whole thing was about $200 all-in-all so unbeatable value.
Update for anyone who might read this in future... update to WiFi 6E/Bluetooth 5.3 with an AX 210 NGW was sucessful, card was about $10 on AliExpress. Wifi is 1200 Mbps with my Wifi 6E router. Also did a WWAN card test, it works with 4G and I'm getting about 60 Mbps down, 15 Mbps up from my provider.
I would love to, but I am not able to as I only had one of these laptops. Depending on what software you use, you should be fine with light editing in 1080p. If the newest version of DaVinci Resolve doesn't work, an older version will. Or I'm sure there are a number of simple options if you just need to split videos and add audio.
@@2DAnimax To be fair, you need to be much more specific with what you want to use/do on the laptop. Specific software. Just cutting together raw 1080p footage or do you need to add effects?

Hi I plan to install an M.2 2242 NVME SSD in the WWAN slot of my Lenovo ThinkPad L480 laptop. Could you please confirm if the existing BIOS will provide an option to boot the Windows 10 OS from this NVME drive after installation?
This laptop is 6 years out already right? I might be able to get myself a used Lenovo ThinkPad L480 14" Full HD Display Intel i7 8.Gen 512 GB SSD 16 GB RAM What do you think this should go for nowadays?

Where do you live in the world? I would feel comfortable selling these refurbished with a 256GB SSD and 16GB RAM for under $300 CAD. Anything over, I wouldn't purchase in the first place as the value would feel too inflated. I don't play Genshin Impact, but I am fairly sure that it would run fine.
@@HaisteComputerRepair I'm waiting too, I found a p52 in the market and not far from my house, it took about 45 minutes to get to the location, but I'm still hesitant to buy the p52, the specifications are xeon with quadro p2000, 4k touchscreen for around $ 680 dollars, if I saw your review, maybe I can convince myself to buy it or not for 2024, but I heard on the internet that the P52 has a problem with the fan/thermal, is that true? and what problems did you experience while using this p52?
@@RizOne-w3pWhen my fan ramps up, I can hear it rumble around a little bit intermittently. But I wouldn't consider that a problem outside of the one I have in particular.

I have a 1920x1080 display panel, so having a 4K touchscreen would be a novelty. Is that $680 USD or CAD?
Another great video, thank you! I always wonder how much faster an M.2 or nvme drive is than a standard 2.5 inch SSD. The numbers are easy enough to find, but real world experience?
@@HaisteComputerRepairJust in general, I assume the difference would be similar with this laptop to others as we aren’t measuring performance of laptop but difference in speed between hard drive types. Either in seconds or %
In real life, NVMe drives like M.2 SSDs can make your computer feel snappier. They boot up faster, transfer big files quicker, and launch apps speedily. If you do a lot of gaming or work with big files, you'll especially notice the difference. But for everyday stuff like browsing or emails, the gap might not be as obvious. So, if you want that extra boost in performance for demanding tasks, NVMe is the way to go! sata is well... older tech
@@sibrend2820 thank you. Does it still improve say my gaming experience if I have my operating system on a small but modern drive like that, but the actual games on an older one using sata? Say even an HDD? Or would it be the same because of the bottleneck of the older drive so the faster one wont matter?

You can use either capacity. A smaller m.2 2242 NVMe SSD should be fine.
Hello sir what would you prefer for gaming and study use L570 16gb ram or L480 16gb ram ,im still undecided thanks
L480 will have the benefit of a 4 core 8 thread CPU if you get a version with an 8th gen i5 or i7. I would say go for that if you can.
