QuestionI understand this has (1) HDMI port, but can this laptop handle or support (2) external monitors if I use adapters to support adding the 2nd external monitor? I already have (2) Acer 27" FHD LED KA Series monitors from my previous desktop setup.
Asked 8 months ago by Huskerhut.
- Answer Yes, you can likely connect two external monitors to the Acer CB516-1H-31UE, but you will need to use a specific type of adapter that uses a port other than just the HDMI port. You can connect one monitor to the laptop's HDMI port and the second via a USB-to-HDMI or a USB-C to HDMI adapter, which acts as a second video output. Be sure to avoid using a basic HDMI splitter, as it will only duplicate the image on both screens instead of extending the desktop.
