HP Elite x3

The HP Elite x3 was built for enterprise users with several enterprise specific features such as high-end processing power (Qualcomm Snapdragon 820), large and bright display (Samsung 5.96" WQHD AMOLED), IP67, MIL-STD 810G, Dual biometric authentication with Iris and fingerprint scanner, 2x2 MIMO 802.11ac, Cat 6 LTE, Bang & Olufsen sound, USB-C charging with a 4,150mAh battery and Qi/PMA wireless charging.

Setting it apart from other premium smartphones, HP Elite x3's defining feature is its ability to connect to an external monitor, keyboard and mouse via the HP Desk Dock, providing a desktop PC-like environment, powered by Microsoft's Continuum feature on Windows 10 Mobile. HP also offers the HP Lap Dock, which is a laptop shell that does not have any computing power in itself (i.e. no CPU, no Motherboard, no HDD, etc.), but connects to the Elite x3 via wired (USB-C) or wireless (802.11ac) connection and powers the Lap Dock, which is essentially a display terminal with a keyboard, touchpad, battery and I/O ports in a laptop form factor.{{cite web|title=HP® Computer and Laptop Store {{!}} HP.com|url=http://store.hp.com/us/en/pdp/hp-elite-x3-lap-dock-with-premium-packaging|access-date=2020-12-05|website=store.hp.com|language=en-us}}{{cite web|title=HP Elite x3 Lap Dock, First Take: An add-on laptop experience for your Windows 10 Mobile phablet Review|url=https://www.zdnet.com/product/hp-elite-x3-lap-dock/|access-date=2020-12-05|website=ZDNet|language=en}}
