This would explain why the M1-based Mini only supports two external displays, and why the 13' M1-based rMBP only supports one external display. The other output supports the Mini's HDMI port, or a laptop's built-in screen – and like its Intel iGPU counterpart, is not available to drive any of a laptop's external screens. That output is available to drive an external display both on the Mini and the laptops.

(Same number of DP or TB3 monitors, plus one HDMI monitor.)Īn educated guess is that the M1 chip might only have two internal video outputs, one of which supports 5K/6K displays much more efficiently than the 'split screen' Intel outputs do. Intel-based Mac Minis do not, and this accounts for the Intel-based Mini being able to drive more external monitors than the 13' Intel-based rMBP. It looks to me as if 13' Intel-based rMBPs permanently reserve one iGPU output for the built-in screen, whether the lid is closed or not. Intel iGPUs have three internal video outputs – none of which directly support resolutions of 5K/6K. If the Mac Mini is able to do that with the M1 chip, the MacBook should also be, at least when the lid is closed.

(If the initial batch of M1-based laptops could work with dual-external-monitor setups, I'm not sure why Apple would want to hide that information.) This is not a matter of USB4 (Thunderbolt 3) bandwidth – so more likely, it reflects some limitation on the number of internal outputs from the M1's iGPU.

Some models have extra USB-C ports for charging your laptop through the display, but unless your laptop only has one USB-C port and no other way of charging, this feature isn’t crucial.

Ports: We required at least one USB-C port for video and power.

Otherwise, most sizes are similar enough that we prioritized other metrics like color, price, and brightness. You can wirelessly connect your Mac to devices, such as another Mac and certain smart TVs, and use them as displays. If you have specific size requirements or prefer a small backpack meant for 13-inch laptops, then you might want to consider a 14-inch model. When physically comparing models, the size difference between 14-inch and and 16-inch monitors didn’t change how we used or carried them.
