Looking to connect 2 portable monitors to my macbook pro M3

I have 2 ASUS portable monitors, that are powered through usb-c when connected to a computer.


I want to connect these to use as external monitors to my MacBook Pro M3.


I can connect 1 with thunderbolt but the other option of hdmi is no good as it doesn’t provide power for the monitor.


any suggestions on how to connect both monitors to use in extend mode?

You're limited to one display. But, there is one way that I am able to get around this...


Based on personal experience...

Getting Multiple External Displays on a Docking Station:


Use a Third-Party Docking Station:

The J5 USB-C Dual HDMI Docking Station allows for more than two extra monitors. How so? Well, plug in a display projector the Mac using the USB-C Digital AV Multiport Adapter and then plug the J5 hub with 2 HDMI displays (one 4K), and then you'll have 3 external screens. It all mirrors and extends. It is all plug & play, with no sower required.
