There are ways around the limitation, using DisplayLink software, but we recommend a Thunderbolt dock if you want multiple Extended mode displays.
Natively over USB-C, Macs can only connect to one external display in Extended mode (where the screen extends beyond what you can see on the laptop screen, as opposed to Mirrored mode that replicates exactly what you get on the laptop screen) but you'll get two Extended mode screens over a Thunderbolt 3 connection. If you want to connect more than one external display to your MacBook you'll need a Thunderbolt 3 dock, rather than a USB-C dock. You can turn that 13in laptop screen into an iMac-sized 27in or even larger monitor by adding an extra display – or connect two large screens to extend your screen across your whole desk. If you use your laptop as your principal computer, you would do well to consider attaching at least one larger display to create a hybrid desktop/laptop setup (with a keyboard, mouse and printer all available via a single connection to your MacBook).
