If you are looking for a flagship smartphone and want the Windows 10 Mobile platform, your options are limited. Microsoft's Lumia 950 XL is nearly 16 months old and sold out. No, the only real option these days is the HP Elite x3. Thankfully, it is a spiffing phone and among the best on the market, period. HP is now sweetening the Elite x3 with a solid discount. The company has knocked a cool $200 off the handset running through until March 31. The HP Elite x3 bundle is now available for $599. That is still a chunk of notes, but is a much sweeter deal considering the bundle also comes with the Desk Dock. If you are unfamiliar with the Desk Dock, it is a station to rest the Elite x3. It connects the device through Microsoft's Continuum feature that turns the smartphone into a Windows 10 PC. There is certainly plenty to get excited about with this offer. Simply put, the HP Elite x3 is the best Windows 10 Mobile handset by a distance, but it is a hugely expensive piece of hardware. At least for this month, interested customers can get the smartphone at a reduced price.
