Monitor for Macbook 12"

Hi, I'm new here.

I would like to use a bigger monitor but from I can understand the mac monitors are not compatible with my macbook 12". Can I use an HDMI cable + adaptors and plug it to another brand monitor??

There are several Apple Support articles on a variety of topics including displays

and also USB-C adapters, plus which ones for what purpose...


• Use 4K displays and Ultra HD TVs with your Mac - Apple Support


This article covers HDMI specifications supported by a USB-C adapter and

the other details. Note the article covers different Mac models, too; so not

all of the information applies to your 12-inch MacBook 2015 build series.


The above also covers the topic and link to display adapters for the USB-C port:

• MacBook - Tech Specs - Apple:

Good luck & happy computing! 🙂
