Operating System: Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

What is the best setup (hub?) to connect my device with 2 external HDMI monitors, wireless logitec keyboard, wireless logitec mouse, usb headphone ?

 

I want to keep the laptop device closed while working.

 

Thank you for any support!

The HP USB-C Dock at the links below and an inexpensive DisplayPort to HDMI adapter will allow the connections to your displays and all of your wired devices. It is marketed by HP as being compatible with your ultrabook.

In order to be able to leave the notebook closed you will need to change a setting in Windows 10.

"In the Power Options window that opens, click the Choose what closing the lid does link on the left sidebar. Here youcan choose what your power buttons do on your computer, as well as what happens when you shut the lid. You can select to Do nothing, Sleep, Hibernate, or Shut down"

 

For your desired situation, you should select do nothing.

Once that is done you will be able to close the notebook and keep on working.

 

Whenever you need to power on the notebook to log into Windows you will need to open the notebook.

 

To shut it down you can use the Windows 10  Power icon and  select shutdown.

Thanks, but the hub has only 1 HDMI connection; so how to connect the second monitor?

Your response leads me to the conclusion that you may not be very familiar with digital output port types and gender changing adapters.

 

Use the DisplayPort to HDMI connnector to connect the second display.

 

The  HDMI and DisplayPort connection are both digital high resolution output ports on the hub.
