Reviews from Reddit:
After browsing amazon for a bit, I found a hub ([Selore&S-Global USB C Hub](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CT2HZ1ZY)) with 2 display outputs. Not only does it work, but it can display both monitors off a single port. There are some down sides: - The brightness can only go up to 50% on each monitor before the monitor reboots. - Giving the hub power seems to make it unstable, and does not provide enough power to the laptop to charge it. - I can't seem to get any of my angled adaptors to work with the monitors now. This does show the the ports are able to output plently of power and data for the monitors. I'm somewhat tempted to buy a second hub, just to have full brightness for the screens, though 50% seems good enough. If anyone has a better hub recommendations, I'd love to hear them.
Full discussion on Reddit ->I need to travel soon, and saw this as a perfect opportunity to finally get a Framework 16. I like/need a 3 monitor setup, so I picked up some portable monitors ([ARZOPA 16" 2.5K Portable Monitor](https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CH9XR3G4)). These little things are great on my desktop and with my phone. So it came as a surprise when they didn't work with the USB C ports on the FW. A few google searches shows I'm not alone in this issue. The display works if I connect to the single USB C port in the back of the GPU expansion card, but not at full brightness. I can also get them to work via a USB C dongle and HDMI, using an aditional USB A cable from the dongle to power the display. This is really dissapointing, and I'm not sure I would of even gone for this setup if I had to deal with more dongles and cables. My questions are if anyone's had success with USB C portable monitors with similar specs, or if anyone has any dongle or cable recommendations that will still let me use just 1 cable for each monitor.
