How to Add Two or Three Screens to the M3 MacBook Pro

The launch of Apple's latest MacBook Pro featuring the M3 chip has been a game-changer for professionals and tech enthusiasts alike. At Plugable, we've been rigorously testing the compatibility of the M3 MacBook Pro with our range of products and are thrilled to share our insights with you.

Whether you opt for the 14” or 16” MacBook Pro model, you can choose from three CPU families: the base M3, M3 Pro, and M3 Max. Our focus today is on the base M3 chip, which, like its predecessors, the M1 and M2, supports a single native external monitor.

So, how do you add more screens to the M3 MacBook Pro? The solution lies in a USB graphics technology called DisplayLink. This technology, which uses a driver to support more monitors than your system otherwise could, is a market-proven, high-performance solution millions worldwide use. And when you choose a Plugable DisplayLink dock, you’re choosing peace of mind, knowing that we handle all the compatibility details for you.

We’ve highlighted two of our most popular products that enable the addition of multiple external displays on Mac:
