Extending Dual Monitors from ENVY x360 15-bp023ca

[bksch]

I wish to extend (not mirror) Dual Monitors from ENVY x360 15-bp023ca.

Both monitors are HP 24es with HDMI and VGA connectivity.  

The laptop has following port specs...

1 USB 3.1 Type-C™ Gen 1 (Data Transfer up to 5 Gb/s, DP1.2, HP Sleep and Charge);

2 USB 3.1 Gen 1 (1 HP Sleep and Charge);

1 HDMI v2.0a;

1 headphone/microphone combo

I've spoken to HP support, HP store and I'm getting mixed messages as to what is possible.

I've heard that I can do the following:

1) connect one monitor via HDMI ports and the other via USB-C and HDMI (using adapter).

2) connect laptop to a docking station vai USB-C and hte monitors to the docking station (1 via HDMI and 1 via VGA).

Then someone said I can do either.  Docking stn recommend is HP USB-C mini-dock (1pm64ut#aba).

Can anyone set me straight on this before I purchase either 1 or 2 above?

Thanks, Bksch
