Hi All,
Thanks for a moment of your time.
I bought a new MacBook Air earlier this year; an M1 2020. The gorgeous thing has two Thunderbolt ports; as you experts will know.
One of the ports is permanently connected to a monitor, but I wish to find the best option adapter for the other port. I wish it to allow me to connect the standard/issued Thunderbolt charger cable and a USB.
I have not found one which delivers those options alone and believe I shall have to go for one which includes a HDMI or VGA or such.
Is the only option the original Apple cable/adapter accessory (...I think that is the USB-C Digital Multi-port Adapter coming in at $69) or is there an alternative option which is compatible with an M1 2020 MacBook Air and furnishes the connectivity I wish (Thunderbolt 3 and USB) at a lower price?
Many thanks for your time and expertise. Most grateful.
Dave
