The two other processor supporting this feature are the high-end Snapdragon 808 and Snapdragon 810. Other requirements for a phone to support Continuum feature include- 720p display with 2GB RAM or 1080p display with 3GB RAM and 16GB internal storage.

Microsoft's 'Continuum for phones' feature allows your Windows 10 phones to function like a Windows 10 PC on any external display. Microsoft's Lumia 950 and 950 XL and Acer's Jade Primo are the other smartphones that comes with Continuum for phones support.
