Don't be fooled by the form factor and your initial impressions -- what we have before us is not a typical smartphone. Well, technically we suppose it is, but the experience is not intended to replace your commonplace , , or other handset.

WTF!!!!.....Price is 1 lakh... Even iPhone 7 is half the price of this... That too with unfinished OS... Still there is no popular apps... W10m is still in development stage... Price should not go above 30k...So that people atleast consider to buy...

These days it's hard not to feel a sense of doom and gloom surrounding Windows 10 Mobile. A series of major services have withdrawn their apps from the platform in the last few weeks and even Microsoft appears to have admitted that the operating system is more trouble than it's worth by dropping...

Beautiful screen; Continuum compatible; Great support from HP

It's big; even for a phablet; Only on Windows 10 Mobile; Expensive

While having a very, very small market share, there are some excellent Windows 10 phones out there. The flagship Microsoft Lumia 950 and 950 XL were and are some of the best the platform had to offer, with solid performance, good looks and high end specs.

When I approached HP about looking at the Elite X3 bundle, my goal was to be able to use the X3 for daily applications and try and use this as my only device. It's hard to grasp that you could move from a desktop + laptop + optional tablet + phone to a phone.

Great screen; Ample + expandable storage; Fast processor; Solid Office/App support; Integration with all Microsoft Services; Continuum works well; HP Workspace fills the desktop gap; Dual-SIM

Expandable storage replaced SIM 2; Diminishing app support; No multi-windows support in Continuum; HP Workspace subscriptions are expensive with limited connected hours

Best windows phone…. It's impressive to see a new manufacturer get so much right on the first try. Speakers: The speakers are loud and solely distort once nearly maxed. Whereas they lack the bass of a lot of consumer-friendly phones just like the iPhone, the Elite x3 excels for Skype calls wherever...
