HP Inc launches Elite x3 – a 5.96-inch touchscreen device that runs Windows 10 Mobile and supports Continuum – a feature that allows the device to be attached seamlessly to a separate screen, mouse and keyboard. http://www.notebookcheck.net/HP-EliteBook-840-G2-Notebook-Review.139398.0.html HP Elite x3 – HP’s new Elite x3 is an innovative new Windows 10 mobile device. With a unique new docking station, the Elite x3 brings Continuum to life in new ways, seamlessly transitioning between a phone, notebook or desktop. HP Elite x3 bridges phablet, laptop and desktop use cases from a single computing device while enabling users to run key productivity apps across seamlessly. By utilising Continuum in Windows 10, the Elite x3 enables frictionless multi-screen transitions between a phone and a desktop PC. The device sports 8MP front camera and 16MP rear camera. For users’ security, the device has both a fingerprint reader and an iris recognition camera, offering biometric security as part of Window’s biometric Hello framework. The Elite x3 also utilizes Windows Hello biometrics to unlock the device with enterprise-grade security – adding an extra layer of protection for enterprise customers. Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 820 processor provides a powerful chipset for fast performance. “Users can dock Elite x3 with its ecosystem of accessories to render desktop and laptop productivity experiences while also retaining productivity on-the-go in a world-class premium and commercial-grade phablet,” HP added. Although Elite x3’s docking station is not new in the field but what takes HP device into a new league is its mobile extender that helps Elite x3 double as a laptop. Personal computers and printing major HP Inc today launched eight new personal products including the world’s thinnest laptop at 10.4 mm thickness, a calling device and a business notebook. “At HP, we are constantly pushing the envelope in design, productivity, security and entertainment to build innovative products for ‘One Life’,” HP Asia Pacific and Japan General Manager and Vice President of Personal Systems Business Anneliese Olson told reporters. According to the company ‘Spectre’ is the world’s thinnest laptop and has a battery life of up to nine and a half hours. The new calling device, HP Elite x3, is built-for-business mobile device and runs on Windows 10. HP Elite x3 bridges phablet, laptop and desktop to enable users to run key productivity apps across these different experiences seamlessly. The third product launched by the company HP EliteBook Folio is the thinnest and lightest business notebook with 12.4 mm thickness and weighs under 1 kg. It will come with a starting price of Rs. 1.30 lakh. Pricing of Elite x3 and Spectre were announced today.

The HP Elite x3 is only the second smartphone from the American company to offer Microsoft's mobile operating system. The 6-inch smartphone, much like any other smartphone of this form-factor, is very difficult to operate using one hand, though its large and sharp display make up for it. The smartphone is also IP67-certified, which means that it can withstand dust and immersion in water for up to 1 metre for about 30 minutes. https://youtu.be/0lgtpuZEz0A As for the software, the HP Elite x3 runs Windows 10 Mobile. It also utilises Windows 10's headline feature Continuum, as you can see in the video above. Continuum enables the Elite x3 to connect to docks - Desk Dock and Mobile Extender - and serve as a full-fledged desktop and laptop, respectively. The HP Elite x3 is no slouch at hardware specifications either. It sports a 5.96-inch QHD (1440x2560 pixels) Amoled display with Gorilla Glass 4 protecting it. The smartphone is powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 820 SoC clocked at 2.15GHz coupled with 4GB of RAM, and 64GB inbuilt storage. There's also a microSD card slot should you need more storage. Other features of the HP Elite x3 include a 15-megapixel rear camera, an 8-megapixel front-facing camera, support for 4G LTE, and a 4150mAh battery. Watch our video, embedded above, to see the phone in action. HP is also partnering with Salesforce, the world’s leading customer relationship management (CRM) platform, to include Salesforce on every Elite x3, empowering users to run their businesses from their mobile devices with powerful tools that work in the cloud, keeping them up-to-date with whatever real-time data they need.
