I now have both my Apple 27" LED Cinema Displays hooked up to my M1 mini.


If you want to hook up to USB-C, the adapter linked below works great.

If you want to hook up to HDMI, you need to buy two adapters - one from HDMI to DisplayPort and another from DisplayPort to Mini DisplayPort. I've tried a direct HDMI to Mini DisplayPort and it didn't work.

If you're only running one monitor, the single USB-C adapter is cheaper.


Works great. Love the M1.
