Apple Macbook Pro Two External Monitors

This DUO 7 in 2 makes using my MacBook Pro a breeze with other non-Apple devices and accessories. Two small issues are exist. First the magnetic stabilization adapter doesn’t work with my MacBook Case and secondly the unit is not as stable without the magnetic stabilization which makes removal of the various devices cumbersome. Build quality is excellent and shipping was very fast.

Handles 2 external monitors in extended mode for a 2020 M1 MacBook Pro

I purchased this monitor to replace two monitors that I was using with my MacBook Pro, and I'm glad I did. It's gorgeous, the speakers are great, and the assembly and set up were easy. My desk is now clean with the one unit, the cords are less unsightly, and I no longer need the external speakers either. The only thing I might do differently is get the curved version of this screen. One of my old external monitors was curved and I did not like it. But with all this real estate on the new monitor, I think a nice curve would be great. Anyway, very pleased with purchase, and always B&H is a great place to buy.

When I was looking at monitors to dock my M1 MacBook Pro to use at home, I was trying to find one that matches the Apple environment. Of course, I wanted the XDR but I just can't seem to justify $6K for a monitor (although if finances are not of matter or concern, then I would have gone that route). For my purposes of writing, email, Photoshop / Lightroom, I feel this Studio Display is plenty. Easily integrates with my MacBook Pro. Simplistic design and doesn't make the office feel cheap with plastic overload. I have a window in my home office so I went with the Nano-Texture glass option. It's great. I do not know what the screen without it is like though. Is it worth $1,800? Probably. Especially true if you want to stay in the Apple environment. It's going to work just fine for 99% of us unless you are an elite professional who desires the capabilities of XDR.

I bought two of these to use with my MacBook Pro M1 Max as a video editing workstation. ***Note that the only way I was able to display 4K at 60 hertz on both monitors simultaneously was to plug BOTH monitors directly to the MacBook via USB-C to DisplayPort cables. Once I did that and stopped trying to get them to work through the Thunderbolt 4 Dock I have, everything looks excellent.*** The resolution is great, as I can have Premiere Pro open on both monitors with one of the two showing the footage in the program window at close to actual size, which helps to see all the detail of the 4K image while editing. Colors look really good, and while this isn't a reference monitor designed for color grading Hollywood movies, it's plenty accurate for my videography work. Aside from video editing, text is super sharp and crisp, and photos and websites look excellent. Since it's an LCD, black levels are never going to look as inky black as they do on an OLED display, but that's to be expected. You can always get a small OLED TV to use as a makeshift client reference monitor. I originally wanted the Apple Studio Display, but at $1600 for one monitor, it was way too expensive for me. On Black Friday, I was able to snag TWO of these Asus ProArt 27 displays for under $800. That's less than half of ONE Apple display! Sure, it's not made of shiny aluminum, but who cares? Image quality is all I need, and this delivers in spades. Plus, they come with VESA mounting holes in the back as standard, so I was able to place them on a two-monitor VESA mounting arm and free up a bunch of space on my desk. I know the Apple display is 5K and this one is 4K, but two 4K monitors side by side get me way more resolution and work space than one 5K monitor. All in all, I heartily recommend this Asus ProArt 4K monitor to anyone looking for a high-res 27 LCD for content creation and general computing on a Mac (as long as you plug it in directly and not through a docking station).

I ordered an external hard drive for my new Apple MacBook Pro to store my photos on when traveling. This HD has rugged in it's name and certainly stands up to the name. I have only set it up and not used it yet, but if it performs as well as my other four LaCie external hard drives, it will be an investment well worth the money I paid for it.

I use all the connections with my Apple MACbook Pro. I do a lot of video and audio editing and use external SSDs, speed works well in edits as if the files were native to the internal drive.

I purchased this to make an external boot drive for my 2015 MacBook Pro. This device is probably the fastest way to add external storage to my machine since the Thunderbolt 2 ports are far faster than the USB3 ports. Since this Sabrent Thunderbolt 3 enclosure is self-powered, you can use the Apple Thunderbolt 3 to Thunderbolt 2 adapter in reverse, making full use of the MacBook's Thunderbolt 2 port and getting super fast transfer speeds, making it suitable for use as a boot drive. I don't have any benchmark utilities, but I copied a large VMware image from the internal Apple SSD to an external 2TB FireCuda 530 and saw an Activity Monitor peak write speed of 1.6GB/sec, which is super fast. The case gets a little warm, but that means that it is effectively sinking heat from the M2 drive. I used this to successfully build and test a system upgrade to Mojave, and will continue to use this to occasionally run modern OS versions that I don't want to permanently upgrade to due to software compatibility issues with old apps I still need to run. Right now, it's Velcro'ed to the laptop lid and holds a 1TB drive waiting to test Catalina, so I can see which apps break before deciding if I want to take the plunge. All in all, it's perfect as an external drive for my older MacBook Pro, it's well priced, and extremely well constructed. I'll continue to use it for the rest of the life of this machine, and it'll still be useful if I upgrade to a more modern machine later.

Apple MacBook Pro's have always delivered, and this one is no exception.

I use it to hook up my thunderbolt monitors to my 2016 MacBook Pro.
