Sonoma and connecting 2 monitors on Macbook pro M1

Dear everyone,

Following the upgrade to Sonoma, does anyone know if it offers the capability to connect to two HDMI monitors using a simple HDMI hub, in addition to the less relevant new features (screen savers, emoticons, background images....etc etc)?

I've learnt that this is possible just adding an external device that will use DisplayLink software... but I was wondering if my >2k Euro Mac, could do it without any extra help.

Thank you!

Stefano

I have a MAC MINI with the Sonoma IOS. I have used 2 monitors for years. Now, that doesn't work. Only one monitor works. I've gone into Display, but can't find the Arrange tab. Please advise. Thanks.

Get a Display Link docking station, I have a StarTech and my wife has a plugable. We both have mac Mini M1's that are using 3 screens right now. (HDMI plugs into the mac) The other 2 plug into the docking station. You need the drivers but other than that it works

The M1/M2 Macs support one external display as stated in the computer specifications.

If you want to use more than one external display get a computer with Max or Pro versions of the silicon chip.
