I have wanted this unit for some time, and was finally able to get it at an excellent price during the Black Friday sale. It provides excellent backup for my new PC and new monitor, and their external drives. My equipment has relatively low power draw, and I get almost an hour of run time when losing power, which is more than sufficient to backup crucial files, and power everything down safely.
I would recommend this to a friend!

This monitor is my first 4K monitor, and it gives me absolutely stunning images. I am using it with Adobe Lightroom and Photoshop elements., and it is well paired with them. I thought I might be overwhelmed by the size of the screen, coming from a 15" screen on a laptop - but I very quickly got accustomed to it, and find myself doing all my editing using my new monitor.

This machine is impressive. It is very well made - with a very pleasing exterior, and a very clean and well laid out interior. It provides more features at this price point than you can find elsewhere. For example - it gives two USB 3.1 Gen 2 ports, and a USB C port on the front! The engineering is well thought out. For example, the memory is two paired 4GB sticks, to optimize throughput. The machine is snappy and does the jobs it was designed for very well. One thing to take note of is that the machine is not designed for high end gaming, and really can't be upgraded to do so - it has a 180W interior power supply and a proprietary motherboard. But it does all the tasks characteristic of a home pc very well, and somewhat beyond. I am doing photo editing using Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photoshop Elements, and they work very well. I have paired the PC with a 28" Samsung 4K monitor, and the images are stunning. For the price, you won't find a better machine anywhere.

Is the HDMI port a full size one, a mini sized one, or a micro sized one?

Lenovo - Ideapad 3i 15.6" FHD Touchscreen Laptop - Core i3-1115G4 with 8GB Memory - 256GB SSD - Arctic Grey
The ultimate Smart Learning notebook, the Lenovo IdeaPad 3i pairs up to 11th Generation Intel Core i3 processors with tailored work and learn from home solutions that address eye strain, posture problems and at-home distractions, while deploying intelligent thermals for a cool and whisper-quiet system. The new privacy shutter on the camera also lets you reserve complete control over your privacy in the home and beyond.
Can this laptop handle a lightweight photoshop? 16 y/o niece has been enjoying graphics class at school. For her first laptop, would this handle a lightweight photoshop?
I would suggest considering the program Lightroom.
This laptop meets the minimum hardware requirements for this program. This laptop does not meet the minimum hardware requirements for the more demanding program Photoshop. For that you would need a laptop with a Core i5 processor.

Convertible? Can this be used like an ipad also?
This laptop has a touchscreen, but it is not a 2 in 1 machine. So it can not be folded 360 deg to act like a tablet.

Will this be able to handle Lightroom or Photoshop editing???
This laptop meets the minimum hardware requirements to handle the program Lightroom. I am afraid the demands of the program Photoshop will be too much for it. For that you would need a computer with at least a Core i5 processor, and 16GB of RAM.

Can you plug in a mouse
A wired mouse can be plugged into one of the usb ports on this laptop. I would suggest using the usb 2 port, and saving the fast port (Super Speed) for devices that can use the extra speed.

Can this run world of Warcraft well enough
The minimum system requirements for this game state that you need at least a Core i5 processor with at least 4 cores. This laptop has only a Core i3 processor with 2 cores. So it would not be able to run the game well enough.

Does this laptop run windows and is it good for sims 4
Although this laptop meets the minimum requirements to run Sims 4, it will struggle to run the program. The main issue is that the Core i3 processor in this laptop is not powerful enough to deal with the program well. The recommendation is to have a machine with a Core i5 processor.
