Lenovo's 1-litre business Tiny desktop covers the essentials cleanly: a front USB-C 3.2 Gen 2 (data and 5V charging, no video) and a front USB-A 3.2 Gen 2 sit beside a 3.5mm headset combo jack, while the rear adds two more USB 3.2 Gen 2 and two USB 2.0 Type-A ports. Dual digital video comes from HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4, and networking is Gigabit Ethernet. An optional rear punch-out slot can be configured with VGA, a second DisplayPort or a serial port.

Notes & Compatibility
Powers from an external DC barrel adapter (not modeled). An optional rear punch-out port can be fitted with one of VGA / DisplayPort 1.4 / serial (configuration-dependent, not modeled). Front USB-C is data + 5V charging only (no DisplayPort output). Up to three independent displays: the HDMI 2.1 (TMDS, so 4096×2160 at 60Hz, not 4K120) and the DisplayPort 1.4 each drive 4096×2160 at 60Hz, and a third needs the optional punch-out DisplayPort (or VGA at 1920×1200). The front USB-C gives only 5V at 0.9A, so charge a phone from the front Always On USB-A (5V at 2.1A) instead. Lenovo ships a 65W, 90W or 135W adapter depending on the configuration.
