The device has got many similarities with Micromax A116 Canvas HD mobile and hence it is seen as the another rival to Micromax A116 Canvas HD, from another domestic handset maker.
This Ultraphone from Zen share few same feature with MicromaX mainly the 1.2 GHz processor where Zen got the Mediatek processore and Micrommax will feature Cortex A7 architectured processor .Both feature a display size of 5 inch and comes with 4GB of internal storage expandable upto 32. Both the device got 8Mp rear camera with auto focus and a LED flash but the secondary camera of 3.2MP is a surprising one in Zen Ultraphone 701 HD.
