It's hard to imagine what HP is thinking. The company, who famously bought Palm and just as quickly decided to deep six webOS, has seemingly re-entered the extremely competitive smartphone market with a flagship that runs on Windows 10 and not Android.
The HP Elite X3 smartphone is by all means an impressive device running Qualcomm's latest 820 processor, it seems the reason for the Elite X3's existence is that it will be able to run Windows 10's Continuum feature which will enable the smarphone to pretend it is a desktop with the right accessories and a keyboard, monitor and mouse. While HP promises the Elite X3 for the summer, no pricing or market availability details have been yet released. The Elite X3 may very well be headed directly to enterprise customers rather than consumers.
