Hey All,

I currently use a MacBook Pro (13-inch, 2019, Four Thunderbolt 3 ports) and I would like to use it with 2 27 inch I mac displays and 1 32 inch Samsung TV. Does anyone know how I can make this work if it is even possible? I would ideally not like to use display link, but I can if need be. I was considering this solution:

If I used 2 thunderbolt 3 (USB c) to thunderbolt 2 (displayport) connected into 2 of the outs on the MacBook, then I used this ( Plugable Thunderbolt 3 Dock Compatible with MacBook and Windows Laptops with Thunderbolt 3. ) to plug in the Samsung HDMI to display port on the back of the device (using a converter (HDMI TO Display port) or a separate HDMI to DisplayPort.)

Product link for those wondering: https://www.amazon.com/Plugable-Thu...ocphy=9021728&hvtargid=pla-440987641891&psc=1

Does anyone have any insight on this? I've been trying to find a solution and so far this seems best, but I could be wrong! I would appreciate any help!

The 2019 13" MacBook Pro supports a maximum of 2 external displays without DisplayLink. https://support.apple.com/kb/SP795
