Will the base model of the Surface Laptop be a good buy?

Can the base model be my 'go-to' laptop for around 3 years? (if not more?)

Potential needs:-
Normal Student Activity
Movies
Light Gaming (Football Manager)
Photoshop (Basic editing)
Studying (4-5 hours) (In college, without a charger)

Might also need:-
Basic Video Editing
Audio Editing (Adobe Audition)
