The Elite X3 additionally includes an Iris scanner as well as a fingerprint sensor for biometric authentication.
HP is yet to confirm the date of its availability and the pricing.
The choice by HP to release a Windows 10 Mobile smartphone is quite thought provoking considering the extremely low market share held by the Microsoft-owned operating system.
