    A New Verizon version of the HP Elite X3 is coming in Mid-October

    Yep, I probably am. Lol. I'll see if anything ships out next week and hopefully have a working model in my hands. I'm also told there will be a few pre-installed apps from Verizon on the device for business customers so still digging in to what those might be.

    A New Verizon version of the HP Elite X3 is coming in Mid-October

    Spent some time today with HP Support, Tier 3. I had a quick but informative conversation with the agent who stated he was on the HP Elite x3 team supporting Verizon (it was Verizon who xfered me there). He stated that there are some devices out there that already work on Verizon: "Sheree at...

    A New Verizon version of the HP Elite X3 is coming in Mid-October

    Re: A New Verizon version of the HP Elite X3 is coming in Mid-September I just spoke with an HP rep on their enterprise sales side. He told me that there is NO "NEW" phone, but rather the same existing phone (US Version only) that has been updated to work on Verizon's network. He advised me...

    HP Elite X3 - Verizon hates us

    Hmm, don't know if buying a phone that will run W10 M is a good bet right now. I guess if it were me, I'd like for my next windows phone purchase to be running the latest (whatever that might be) version of windows OS for devices. This would be a pretty hefty investment (even for businesses)...

    HP Elite x3 now supports Verizon

    So, I did get a chance to speak with an HP reseller, who connected us to HP Support. We were told that support on Verizon for the Elite X3 was not yet available, however their engineers were testing connectivity and hoping to be online "soon." When ask if it is worth buying the current device...

    OMG - "Verizon may soon start selling the HP Elite x3" !!!

    It seems this is not a new version at all. But rather, they are just unlocking existing bands on the same device. This seems to be what our HP rep was being told when called in to his support desk today. I wonder if all this time the phone was capable of band 13 but was never turned on?

    HP Elite X3 And Why They Are Targeting Enterprise

    Just took my HP Elite X3 from the postman (arrived a day late). I will try to get some pics or maybe a video up for you guys. Feels rather...solid in the box. Interesting though, I have material here that says " ...when purchased in quantities of 5 or more save $49.99 per line item..." So I...

    Ordered My HP Elite X3 Today

    No word on Verizon at this time. It is sold as a global GSM device, but I didn't see Verizon or Sprint listed in the compatible carrier list. At&t and Tmobile, along with sub GSM carriers in the US at least for now. Global, so there is also a long list of countries.

    Ordered My HP Elite X3 Today

    I'm still waiting on word regarding the cost of the HP Workspace, but a new list of accessories has been updated. Among the items that are available as of right now are the Wireless Charger ($55) Desktop Doc ($150 so you may as well get it bundled). All other cases and 3 different types of...

    Ordered My HP Elite X3 Today

    I sure will. Intend to use it with HP Desktop Doc and Continuim doc to see if one works better than the other. As well as the overall performance of the phone of course. We are really focusing on the software side "HP WorkSpace" and how well it performs and how quickly we can bring custom...

    Ordered My HP Elite X3 Today

    No offense to anyone working in local carrier stores, but I can see how this device might be a challenge in terms of selling to consumers at a store. There is a lot of information to present that leads up to the device. Not sure if store sales reps would dedicate the time to learn/present in...

    HP Elite X3 And Why They Are Targeting Enterprise

    I mentioned somewhere else on here that I put in an order for this device yesterday and should arrive on the 17th. Super excited. I also wanted to mentioned that I went through the full HP training and sales material on this device and came away with a few thoughts. First, HP did extensive...

    Ordered My HP Elite X3 Today

    Ok, so I completed my training program on the Elite X3 today and then promptly placed my order. Phone and desktop doc will arrive Aug 17th. Total was $750. This should be plenty of time to play around and test before the wider roll out in the US. No other accessories were available for order...
