Hi I would like to add a monitor for better viewing of online platforms. I'm concerned about compatibility, given that the notebook has few ports. Just the one USB (which I use for my curvy keyboard and mouse) and 2 USB-C ports, one of which is the power supply. I have a USB to HDMI and VGA adaptor but I've been warned that the adapter might reduce the reliability of the monitor transmission. Could anyone advise? I'm after a monitor that is about 19 - 24 inch and cost-effective. Thanks!

Using a USB to HDMI or VGA adapter is perfect for adding a second monitor to a laptop or AIO that has no other means.  They will not cause any damage to either the host or the second monitor.   The model number given is only a partial number - the XX's are supposed to be numbers
