The Micromax Evok Note is the bigger variant of the both and features a 5.5-inch Full HD display, with a 2.5D curved glass carrying a pixel density of 401 PPI. At the heart of the phone is a 1.3GHz octa-core MediaTek MT6753 SoC, coupled with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage. The storage can be expandable via a microSD card.

Camera wise, the Evok Note comes with a 13MP rear camera with 5P lens, autofocus, and LED flash. Frontal, Micromax has added a 5MP sensor. The phone comes with private security application called 'Secure Space' that allows users to secure their phone by locking each application and can unlock them with the help of fingerprint sensor.

The smartphone has a 4000mAh battery and boots Android Marshmallow out-of-the-box. It has connectivity options such as 4G LTE, VoLTE, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and GPS.

On the other hand, Micromax has launched the Micromax Evok Power at Rs. 6,999. The phone flaunts a 5-inch HD display and is powered by a 1.3GHz quad-core processor. The chipset in the phone is accompanied with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of onboard storage (expandable via microSD card).
