Product: HP Laptop 15-dw3xxx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 11

I have an HP Laptop 15-dw3xxx. I want to connect 2 monitors. I have one connected via the HDMI port directly into the laptop and that works great. However, I am unable to connect a 2nd monitor. I understand the USB-C port does not support video output and therefore can not be used. Has anyone tried an HDMI splitter? Would that help? Or are there other options? The laptop on has 1 HDMI port, USB-C port (not video supported) on one side then on the other it has 2 USB ports and of course the power port. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

HDMI splitter is a joke, it ONLY gives you 2 same display (duplicate) if you wish you can use

  • Monitor 1: HDMI direct cable,
  • Monitor 2: Using a Displaylink Certified USB-A to HDMI adapter such as

                                     USB to HDMI Adapter

 

Other option:   https://support.hp.com/au-en/product/details/hp-usb-3.0-3005pr-port-replicator/model/5256709
