HP Pavilion x360 - 14-ba253cl

Hi-  I am trying to connect to 2 monitors to my HP pavilion 14-ba253cl laptop. I tried an HDMI splitter cable and only 1 monitor goes on I tried a c-cable with HDMI but it didn't work. Is there a way to connect 2 monitors to this laptop?  I saw other posts but didn't know where to look for my specific model. Thanks in advance.

It ONLY has 1 hopeless USB 3.1 Type-C™ Gen 1 (Data Transfer up to 5 Gb/s) port which does NOT support Alt mode nor Power Delivery. You can NOT use it to

  • Charge your machine,
  • Connect to an external monitor with/without hub/dock/adapter (some hubs may have builtin chip to support this)

If you wish to connect 2 external monitors (only-total 3), 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
