Macbook pro docking station dual monitor

If you got what you expected in every case, I would not use such strong terms to describe DisplayLink.ДЄctually the Displaylink performance on an M1 MacBook Pro is very good and using a dock such as the HP Universal USB-C G2 dock (5TW13UT), I have 2 external 27' Acer Predator monitors at 1440P plus the built in display active in extended desktop mode.

I think the Big Surprise for a lot of Hub/Dock buyers is that they thought they were getting a 'real' display, but actually got a DisplayLink 'fake' Display. There have been cases where MacOS changes completely Borked DisplayLink software, and it took some time for them to recover. These displays depend on DisplayLink software, and are at the whim of Apple when they make MacOS changes. But that is NOT the same as the computer supporting a second, built-in, accelerated display. It is really nice to know that you can use a DisplayLink display if you MUST have an additional display for some of the types of data I mentioned.

It may be acceptable for a second display showing slow-to-change data such as computer program listings, stock quotes, or spreadsheets, but NOT for full motion Video, and mouse-tracking on that display can lag, and can make you feel queasy. It is not a true 'accelerated' display, and it suffers from lagging.

DisplayLink technology creates a 'fake' display buffer in RAM, sends the data out over a slower interface to a stunt box with DisplayLink custom chips that put that data back onto a 'legacy' interface.
