WWDC: Apple’s M2-based MacBooks still offer support for only a single monitor up to 6K at 60Hz

Apple on Monday unveiled a new MacBook Air as well as a 13-inch MacBook Pro powered by its new M2 chip.

According to their tech notes, the notebooks officially support only a single external display up to 6K resolution at 60Hz.

The previous-generation MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro models with the M1 chip also supported only a single external display, according to Apple, but it was discovered that multiple displays can be connected to these notebooks with the use of DisplayLink adapters, and this will likely remain a workaround for the new M2 Macs.

The higher-end 14-inch and 16-inch MacBook Pro notebooks support up to two external displays via their M1 Pro chip, and up to four external displays with the M1 Max chip.

The M2-based MacBook Air starts at $1,099 while the M2-based MacBook Pro starts at $1,299.

Stay tuned for additional details as they become available.
