The Lenovo ThinkPad T470s-20HF0012US (ThinkPad T470s Series) 1TB / 32GB is Lenovo's 2017 laptop featuring a height x width x depth (in mm): 19 x 331 x 227 ( = 0.75 x 13.03 x 8.94 in) display, the Intel Core i5-7300U 2c/4t 2 x 2.6 - 3.5 GHz, Kaby Lake chipset. At AED 1,149 in the UAE and ₹28,990 in India, it sits firmly in the budget tier.
The ThinkPad T470s excels with its Intel Core i5-7300U and dual-channel 8GB DDR4 RAM, delivering smooth multitasking for office apps and light development work. Its 51Wh battery sustains 8–9 hours under moderate use, aided by efficient Kaby Lake architecture and dual internal cells. The 1TB SSD offers ample storage, though speeds are capped at SATA III, not NVMe. The 1080p display, 3 USB 3.0 ports, Thunderbolt 3, and fingerprint reader suit professionals needing reliability and connectivity. Weakness? The Intel HD 620 GPU struggles with any modern graphics load—no video editing or gaming. Weight at 1.36kg is light, but thermals throttle under sustained CPU load. In UAE at AED 1149, it’s good value because enterprise-grade build and battery life outlast newer budget laptops. In India at ₹28990, it’s overpriced—newer Ryzen 5 or i3-1215U models with NVMe storage and better GPUs are available for similar cost.
