Although Windows 10 Mobile was a no-show at the Mobile World Congress 2017 happening in Barcelona this week, Windows 10 2-in-1 devices are gaining a great deal of attention at the event thanks to new accessories being introduced for them. HP, in particular, unveiled the USB-C Dock for its newly minted HP Pro x2 and Elite x3.

The HP Pro x2 features a rugged case with a 360-degree rotating hand strap, the Elite USB-C Dock for a virtual desktop experience, and the USB-C travel hub for USB and display connectivity. Microsoft says the other accessories include:

  • HP Pro x2 612 G2 Rugged Case: Ideal for customers in extreme work environments, this case features a 360-degree rotating hand strap, shoulder strap, stylus holder, optional port plugs and is compatible with the Pro x2’s keyboard.

  • HP Elite USB-C Dock: Turning your device into a virtual desktop, this new dock is enterprise IT ready, and is compatible with devices like the Pro x2 that have a multi-function Type-C USB port or devices with a Thunderbolt port. The HP Elite USB-C Dock is expected to be available in March, starting at $129.
  • HP USB-C Travel Hub: Ideal for mobile professionals who need access to additional peripheral ports while on-the-go, this solution delivers pass-through connectivity for displays and USB devices and charging for the Pro x2 or Elite x3 while the device is being used – with one USB-C cable.

For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
