  • M1 Mac mini can drive six displays with peripherals - but you shouldn't bother

    If you count the display it already has, then it does support a second one.  Just not a third one (and beyond).  So saying that not running a third display is akin to not supporting a BT mouse/keyboard is ridiculous.  I'd be willing to bet that a setup with more than one external monitor falls into the less than 1% category.  Even with pros.  Apple will eventually support it, but to expect them to support every single 1% (or less) use case with their very first product release is nuts.

    Dual external display became a standard configuration for laptop users at my previous company (fortune 500 company with 200,000+ employees) for both Windows and Mac users.  This would be a serious downgrade.  However, it's unlikely the company would be deploying M1 based Macs to most people at this point.  By the time Mx based Macs are deployed, they'll probably support dual displays.
