Envy 13 - Connecting 2 External Monitors

[aam6]

Hello, 

The laptop model I have is the - HP ENVY - 13-Ah1507sa

Would anyone know if this monitor can support 2 external monitors? 

- The laptop has 1 USB C port, I am currently using this USB C port to connect 1 external monitor.

- My external monitor has a DVI connection, it does not have a USB C port only the laptop does.

- I am using an HDMI to DVI wire and connecting it to the laptop's USB C port via an adapter. 

Please note that as my monitor does not have a USB c port I don't think I can attempt to daisy chain. 

Is there anyway, I can use the 1 USB c port on my laptop and run 2 external monitors? maybe using an adapter with multiple ports? I want to confirm if this is possible before I invest in a second monitor. 

Thank you so much in advance.

You can use option to connect 2 or 3 external FHD monitors using USB-C Gen 5 dock.  Believe me, it will make your life much easier.

I do have a USB-C dock with a VGA and an HDMI ports, but both monitors show the same image....
How can I solve this? can you recommend a USB-C converter with 2 VGA ports for 2 monitors?

Hi @Banhien,

Are you referring to the HP USB-C Dock G5? 

 This is well out of my budget unfortunately. If I were to pick up a dongle that has more than 1 hdmi ports and connect that to the type c port on my laptop, will it still take more than 1 FHD monitor? 

Thank you!
