We know that our customers want to know about compatibility between the new M1/M2-based Macs and Satechi’s adapter solutions.

All of Satechi’s USB-C docks are fully compatible with the new M1 (or M2) based Macs including the ability to charge a laptop and more.

However, the only limitation is that the new M1/M2-based Macs cannot support dual “Extended” displays through their Thunderbolt 3 ports.

This means that when using an adapter, users cannot extend their desktop over two displays, and will be limited to either dual “Mirrored” displays or 1 external display depending on the dock.

Users with Intel-based Macs and (some) Windows 10 PC users can still benefit from dual “Extended” displays when using Satechi DUAL docks.

• This is not a limitation of Satechi’s USB-C docks, but of the Thunderbolt 3 / USB4 ports on the new M1-based Macs.

All other functionality of our docks including laptop charging will work as normal.

We hope this information is able to provide further clarification and guidance!
