M1 MacBook dual display issue?
 
Hello,

Newbie here with a question?

I have a 13" M1 MacBook Pro (2020) that I want to use with a dual display. I just bought a new pair of 27" Dell monitors and I am using a Dell WD19TBS Thunderbolt docking station to connect one of them. But I realized AFTER I bought the monitors that this model MacBook Pro only supports one monitor natively. :mad:

So now I have to either get a different dock or a DisplayLink compatible adapter so I can use the second monitor.

Can someone recommend which adapter I need to get in order to use the second monitor? Also, do I plug the new adapter into the Dell dock I already have, or directly into the MacBook? (I've already downloaded the DisplayLink software).

Thanks!
Kat

Use the displaylink products page to match monitor desired resolution to a dock. You can either completely replace your existing dock or plug the new dock into the existing as long as the port requirements are met. If you have a 202 M1 and your looking to run those monitors in anything other than 1080 resolution then your going to need to run betterdummy as displaylink does not provide you hidpi on non-native resolutions other than 1080. Goodluck.
