HP releases videos of the beastly Windows 10 Mobile powered HP Elite x3

Remember the HP Elite x3? The highly spec'd Windows 10 Mobile phone was first mentioned by us last December when it showed up on AnTuTu under the name HP Falcon. Now, HP is working hard to get the Elite X3 ready for launch. The phone features a Gorilla Glass 4 protected 5.96-inch AMOLED display, carrying a 1440 x 2560 resolution. Under the hood is the Snapdragon 820 chipset with a quad-core 2.15GHz CPU and the Adreno 530 GPU. 4GB of LPDDR4 RAM is inside along with 64GB of expandable native storage. Those seeking additional memory can access the 2TB capacity microSD slot.

A 16MP camera adorns the rear of the phone, while an 8MP front-facing snapper shoots selfies and handles video chats. The Elite x3 features both a fingerprint scanner and an iris reader. The unit is IP67 certified meaning that it can be submerged in up to 1 meter of water (3.28 feet) for as long as 30-minutes. A 4150mAh battery keeps the lights on, and Qi and PMA wireless charging is supported. Windows 10 Mobile is pre-installed, and the phone does work with Continuum, the technology that turns the device into a computer.

With the phone chillin' during Computex in Taipei, a few videos were released by HP. We've embedded them for your pleasure, below. The HP Elite X3 is set to make a lot of noise for Windows Phone as it gives fans of the platform the opportunity to buy a high-end Windows 10 Mobile handset that is not manufactured by Microsoft and is not a Lumia phone. Pricing and availability are unknown at the moment.
