Welcome to the forums, newcomer!

The 2-in-1 you won will allow you to drive two displays, the only catch here is that while the first display will work off the HDMI, the second display will need to work off the USB Type-C port, which in essence means that you're going to need an USB Type-C to Display port or HDMI adapter.
