Only one external display at a time with MacBook Air /...

The new MacBook Air and MacBook Pro 13 “equipped with the Apple M1 chip can only handle one external display at a time, as indicated in their data sheets. This is a capacity behind the Intel models which, on the other hand, are support two external displays simultaneously (up to two 4096 x 2304 pixel monitors at 60 Hz).

The MacBook Pro 13 “M1 nevertheless has an advantage over its predecessor Intel: it supports a 6K screen at 60 Hz (in other words the very expensive Pro Display XDR), when the older generation stopped at 5K. The MacBook Air M1 It also manages a 6K screen at 60 Hz, but its predecessor Intel already knew how to do it.

A Pro Display XDR connected to a Mac mini M1. Apple image.

The Mac mini M1 can simultaneously manage two external displays, the maximum being a 6K 60Hz monitor connected via Thunderbolt with a 4K 60Hz monitor in HDMI 2.0. It is better than the Mac mini Intel in dual screen configuration, which was “limited” to a 5K screen in Thunderbolt accompanied by a 4K screen in HDMI.

But like the MacBook Air / Pro M1, the first Mac mini with Apple Silicon architecture does not allow to connect as many external displays as the Intel models. You can only connect two monitors at a time, while the Mac mini Intel, which is still on sale, supports up to three (two 4K 60 Hz in Thunderbolt 3 and one 4K 60 Hz in HDMI, at most). To see if we can still connect three screens in total, even if it means having lower definitions, through a Thunderbolt 3 dock. We will try it out.
