Mac mini 2020 and external displays
I ordered a MacMini 2020 today and then canceled after reading a review that it will not support three monitors as my 2018 Mac mini does. I wanted to ask the community if this is true?

Yes, you can review the spec’s for both models in an earlier thread.

I have the same question. Why would Apple do this?? I have the new MacMini coming this next week. I am trying to figure out a way to hook up dual monitors and still have a thunderbolt port for external drives. I wish it still had 4 outputs, two for monitors and two for peripherals . I had the 2018 Mac mini hooked up to one usb-c port and the other to the HDMI port. Colors did not match at all. I then hooked the monitors using 2 usb-c to HDMI cables and all works great and I still have 2 ports for drives etc. Now what is a guy to do? Go to one wide screen monitor?
straight from Apple's own website about the Mac Mini.
Two monitors only.
You will have to wait to see if the next gen Mini will have 3 display support
or what else Apple may have up their sleeves for Apple silicon in the
next year (perhaps a poorman's MacPro?)
This is somewhat disheartening news. I am very surprised that Apple would go this route. It seems the only viable option is to go with the 21:9 aspect ratio monitor.
Yea' could just push me back to looking for a used 2018 Mac Mini to replace one of my souped-up 2012 Mac Mini's.
