HP in collaboration with Microsoft has started to roll out another firmware update for HP Elite x3. The new update, version 0002.0000.0023.0113, brings minor improvements to device stability and performance. There are some other changes inside the new firmware.
HP is working hard on improving the user experience of the Elite x3: this update is the fourth one since it's global launch back in August 2016. No other OEM has provided support like this for its Windows phones. The device itself has proven to be very popular among business users who invested in the Windows ecosystem, mostly because of its unique form-factor, wide range of accessories (including Desk Dock and Lap Dock allowing you to convert your phone into a full laptop) and the Continuum feature customized by HP's own services with the ability to run virtualized x86-apps with HP Workspace.
