Budget smartphones with elite features vying for the top spot now seem to have become a usual battle. And every time there comes in a new handset, the fight just gets all the more interesting and gripping.
Initiating a similar battle is Micromax's most recent entry - Canvas Evok. This device is touted to give current rulers, Xiaomi, Meizu and LeEco a run for their money. It is to note that Micromax’s budget Canvas Evok was launched in India on May 16, 2016. It is now available for purchase exclusively on Flipkart.
Now that users have quite a few choices, making a decision is sure going to be tough. For starters, it is to note that Micromax Canvas Evok will be available at Rs. 8,499, a price that’s lesser in comparison to that of Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, LeEco Le 1s, Meizu M3 Note and Lenovo K4 Note. And if compared with the Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus, then it stands to be similar.

Moving on, Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus features a 5-inch display with Full HD (1920 x 1080p) resolution backed by 441ppi and sports premium aluminium cover with radio frequency (RF) radiation guard on its back. Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 comes with a full metal unibody backed by 5.5-inch Full HD display that offers 178-degree viewing angle, night mode and Sunlight display tech. in terms of display, Redmi Note 3 stands to be a better handset.
