Compatibility of Display Pilot 2/Display Pilot and different Mac devices

BenQ DesignVue PD series designer monitors currently support the Apple M1, M2 and M3 based devices natively when using our Display Pilot software with version 1.0.9.5 or later. However, Some Mac devices cannot sync with our PD series monitors when using the HDMI port. Thus, we recommend connecting the monitor via the Thunderbolt 3/4 (USB-C) cable or USB-C to DisplayPort cable when using Display Pilot/Display Pilot 2 as part of your workflow. The table below shows detailed information about the compatibility of DisplayPilot and different Mac devices.
