Can you daisy chain studio display

So basically to have two studio or even three studio displays connected to one of the new laptops as advertised, you need to plug in each one of the thunderbolt cables to the two or three thunderbolt ports of the laptop. Each monitor directly to the thunderbolt port of the laptop... ?????

They can, but as mentioned before, it seems that each monitor has to be connected directly to the thunderbolt ports of your laptop, which the new ones has 3 thunderbolts ports.

My suggestion is, you can get the two monitors, buy a thunderbolt 3 or 4 HUB. Then you can connect your two Studio Displays to this hub, and only one thunderbolt cable from your macbook pro to the Hub. This will make it more clean in case you need to unplug your laptop, you only need to unplug one cable instead of two if you have it wihtout the HUB.

I am going to do the same setup soon, as soon the Displays are available in stores, I would like to take a look in person first. Cheers!

If you use such a Dock, you must be certain that it has uses a genuine ThunderBolt cable to connect to the Mac, and that it has two genuine Thunderbolt ports for peripherals. Many have only USB-C ports for peripherals, which will not support genuine ThunderBolt displays.

That is absolutely correct, thank you for pointing that out. This is a suggestion for a HUB that seems to be one of the best with the capability of supporting up to two dual 6k Displays, meaning it will or should support two Studio Displays which are at 5k.

I looked into this but it seems that all the thunderbolt hubs are limited to 4k with two displays which means that the only way to use the Studio Display as intended is to connect it directly to the MacBook Pro. I was thinking about purchasing 3 of them but I hat the idea of having to connect 3 cables to my laptop every time! :(

if you are considering connecting three high-end displays, a computer optimized for light weight, portability, and battery-capable is not a smart choice. Too many computer design decisions have been made in favor of features you are not using most of the time. You also pay dearly for the built-in display, and Apple is walking away from support for NOT using it.

No.

The second display requires a genuine Thunderbolt input, with a data stream faster than 26G bits/sec.

The first Studio Display has USB-C outputs capable of 10G bits/sec.

Well, at least apple tried. C+ for effort but to many gotchas. Personally, I would l get the displays if I can daisy chain them.

Large, high-performance displays are reaching the limits of switching speeds of digital logic. A few years from now, we will look back at the idea of daisy-chaining displays and laugh out loud.
