HP's new Windows 10 Mobile phone launching as Elite x3

4.1
Back in December, a Windows 10 Mobile device was spotted on a benchmarking site, identifying itself as the 'HP Falcon'. Some additional details emerged later that month, suggesting that HP would be targeting the device at business buyers - much the same as VAIO's new Windows 10 Mobile handset, the Phone Biz, which was unveiled last week.

And now, thanks to serial leakster Evan Blass (better known as @evleaks), it seems that the future identity of the device has been revealed too.



According to Evan, the handset - which has so far only been known by its 'Falcon' development codename - will go on sale as the HP Elite x3. That certainly lines up with the notion that it will be aimed at business buyers; HP uses Elite branding for its business-focused devices, which includes the Elite x2 tablet.

Another HP device that shares that branding is the company's new EliteBook Folio, which it unveiled last month; notably, a press image of the new notebook included an unidentified Windows 10 Mobile handset, which may well have been a teaser for the Elite x3 phone.

The Elite x3 is expected to have a 5.8-inch display with Quad HD resolution, and the latest Snapdragon 820 processor, along with support for the PC-like Continuum feature in Windows 10 Mobile.

doot 1440p screen on a tiny display is completely pointless...


Nah I think that it would be pretty good as the clarity of the screen would be amazing!


It'll make very little difference while sacrificing battery life.

I'm sure this is gonna be a killer phone, but I've always had an iPhone and when the 7 comes out I will be upgrading to that. I don't really see or know anyone who uses a Windows phone, but this might make some more people go and get one.
