So while I could hook one up via USB-C/Thunderbolt 4, the other one had to be connected via HDMI. The problem with the LG Ultrafine monitors is that they are both USB-C. Just hook up your second monitor using a standard HDMI cable and you’re done. If you have an HDMI monitor you want to hook up to your M1 Mac Mini, that’s pretty straightforward. One (and only one) connected via Thunderbolt 4.The M1 Mac Mini does support TWO displays, but in a very specific configuration: In fact, the M1 MacBook Air and MacBook Pro can only natively support ONE external monitor. There is one “gotcha” though: it can be much harder to use multiple monitors with an M1 Mac.īefore getting the M1 Mac Mini, I was using my 16” Intel MacBook Pro as my main monitor on a stand in the middle with two LG 4k Ultrafine monitors, one on each side:īut that’s impossible with M1 Macs at the moment.
It’s incredible how much computer you get for the price.
It’s amazing to me that a $700 desktop has replaced my $3000 laptop, but it has. TL DR – The M1 Mac Mini is a screaming’ machine. I wanted to see if all the hype was real, and I really liked the idea of a regular desk setup that never changed. So right before Christmas break, I got an M1 Mac Mini. I also have heard a lot of great things about the new M1 Macs.

This allowed me to unplug my laptop and bring it with me when I wanted to work from a coffee shop or needed to travel.Īnd now that I work from home every single day, I don’t really need a portable computer anymore.
I’ve had a MacBook Pro ever since my first 17” titanium model, and had been using my current generation 16” MacBook Pro and a Thunderbolt 3 dock. The Siig adapter mentioned here will ONLY work with a USB-C monitor. Some readers have reported that the newer model (24MD4KB) does not work with the mentioned adapter because it requires Thunderbolt 3 instead of USB-C. Editor’s Note: The LG 4k monitors used for this article are model number 22MD4KA.
