Unlike a regular mechanical hard drive, a Solid-State Drive (SSD) has no moving parts and performs faster—including booting up (nearly 3X quicker), opening files (as much as 30% faster), and transferring files (around 200 MB/s, compared to 50-120 MB/s).  As well as being quieter, it’s also more reliable, more rugged, and more secure.

Every ThinkPad laptop undergoes 12 stringent military tests and over 200 quality checks. So, you can rest easy knowing that your T470 is more than capable of surviving the bumps and bruises of everyday life.

The T470 is available with Microsoft Windows 10 Pro Signature Edition. Now, you can say goodbye to unwanted trial ware, apps, or distractions. And hello to a faster laptop, from startup to shut down and everything in-between.

With Windows Hello’s advanced fingerprint technology, there’s no need to worry about remembering your password. Simply touch the fingerprint reader to log in, quickly and securely.

With its two batteries and Power Bridge technology, the T470 gives you greater flexibility and up to 18 hours of power on a single charge. That's more than enough juice to help you burn the midnight oil or binge-watch your favorite show.

Weighing around 3.48 lbs (1.58 kg) and just 0.79 in (19.95 mm) thin, the T470 gives you portability, without sacrificing performance. Its 14.0" FHD display delivers sharp, vibrant visuals—perfect for working on the go or kicking back to enjoy a movie.

The T470 has an HD web camera and dual array microphones (with background noise reduction) as standard—ideal for whether you're on a call in a busy open plan office or a bustling coffee shop.

By constantly listening to our customers, we have been able to refine the T470’s TrackPad and TrackPoint. With an improved design that lessens jumps or gaps when scrolling, these pointing devices offer a smoother, cleaner, and more accurate experience. Together with the award-winning ergonomic ThinkPad keyboard, the T470 will soon help you make light work of hard work

The ThinkPad T470 includes Intel® Thunderbolt™ 3—the technology that brings lightning-fast Thunderbolt to USB-C at speeds up to 40 Gbps. Connect a cable from your USB-C port to a Thunderbolt 3-enabled device, and get four times the data and twice the video bandwidth of any other port type, while also supplying power. So you get Thunderbolt, USB-C, and DisplayPort. Plus, you can even output to two 4K displays with the Thunderbolt Dock.
