MacBook Pro M2 with 2 Thunderbolt Displays I'm currently using a Thunderbolt2 to USB-C adapter to connect a Thunderbolt display. I want to add a second Thunderbolt display to have 2 external monitors + laptop. Since the Thunderbolt displays only have USB ports (no Thunderbolt ports), I can't directly daisy-chain them together. Any ideas? Is there a recommended hub that will make this work?

Can I connect two 2K monitors to my MacBook Pro M1 ? I presently have two 1080p 24" monitors connected to my M1 pro and it works like a charm. But I believe I have outgrown this and want to remove my 24" monitors and replace them with two 27" monitors. I have option of choosing 1080p or 2K resolution. Wanted to check with the community here if my laptop would support both 2K monitors at the same time. 1 monitor will be connected directly from MacBook second monitor will be connected via USB C hub. Thanks in advance for your response :-)

Thanks for posting in the Apple Support Communities bum1234,

According to the following resource: Connect a display to your Mac

On MacBook Air, 13-inch MacBook Pro, iMac, and Mac mini, you can connect one external display using either of the Thunderbolt / USB 4 ports.

Cheers!

thank you, very helpful, hadn’t realised that so many Mac products could only connect to 1 monitor.
