Hello,
I've been trying to find the best way to extend (not mirror) my laptop screen to two new monitors that I had bought.
My laptop model is HP envy x360 i7 (15m-dr1012dx).
Please instruct me on whether I should get a usb-c to HDMI splitter or are there better options around for best performance. I do have a few other ports available other than usb-c and HDMI on this laptop.
Please recommend a good product to get so that I can be sure that it will work.
Thanks.

The specs of your machine is
https://support.hp.com/au-en/document/c06449252
You should be able to connect to TWO external monitors using
- HDMI port: a direct HDMI - HDMI cable
 - USB-C port: using a direct USB-C to DP or USB-C to USB-C monitor
 
Regards.

Thanks for the reply. @banhien
Unfortunately I only have one HDMI port and one USB c port on my laptop.
And the two monitors I bought only have HDMI port and a RGB in port each.
And I wasn't looking to mirror my laptop but to extend it into two monitors.
Please suggest any possible devices that can help

Unfortunately I can't mention Banhien in a message unless I'm a level 6 in this forum.
I still haven't figured out a solution.
Just noticed that my laptop just has 1 USB c port, 2 USB 2, and one HDMI port. Nothing else.
Monitors only have HDMI port.
Still wondering what I should buy to extend laptop instead of mirroring it.
Any help from anyone in the forum would be much appreciated.
