Hi, Mackbook Air M1 8GB.

Hi, can I add dual screens and a keyboard to work from home? Using MacBook Air and working through TeamViewer finding it too small..?


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.4

You can use DisplayLink adapters and DisplayLink software to add more than 1 external monitor, however, with ONLY 8GB of RAM that might put a strain on your system.

You might be better looking at getting an Ultra-Wide monitor, which gives you more screen real estate, but looks like a single display to the Mac, so it is all handled via the hardware GPU, and not DisplayLink software.
