Dell's leaked Windows 10 Mobile smartphone could have been a new HP Elite X3?

The HP Elite X3 is one of the most interesting terminals on the market, at least within the catalog under Windows 10 Mobile (we can also say that in the market in general). And it is that after offering those old phones half computers with Windows Mobile in the golden age of manufacturers like Palm or BlackBerry, it seems that the classic manufacturers of computer equipment turn their eyes to the mobile market

It has happened with HP, Acer has repeated its play with the Acer Liquid Jade and now it seems that another big one like it is Dell also looked at _smartphones_as the next market niche to be exploited given the unstoppable growth of these devices that threaten to cannibalize a good part of the _gadgets_ that accompany us.

And that new phone that Dell had in hand we have been able to see in great detail thanks to Evan Blass, better known for the name @evleaks. The renowned _twitero_ that sweeps the net every time it announces the arrival of a new model is now repeating the play with this new _smartphone_ that would work under Windows 10 Mobile and with an x86 processor would have come from Intel and Dell.

With a design in which a large screen stands out, it is a phone that, according to @evleaks himself, would allow running Windows desktop programsAn unequivocal nod to the professional market that would serve to boost the use of Continuum and gain productivity on the move.

Little is known about this, it seems, failed development It is striking that a processor could have entered the reduced thickness of a phone x86.More than a telephone, it would be a small-sized portable PC with 4G connectivity and the possibility of being used with a screen and mouse.

The images we see are almost certainly _renders_ and not actual images. We won't know why this project failed, but maybe in the end low-power X86 processors won't match well with a mobile device given the heat it generate (remember that some cooling source would have been needed to make them operational).

If it could have been some kind of HP Elite X3 or even a Surface Phone that It is something that we can only imagine So we will have to wait for some manufacturer to dare to take the leap and offer a model that is practically a mini PC with mobile functions that can exploit Continuum in all its splendor.And if it is as attractive as the one in the images, even better.
