Zen Mobiles is not a well-known phone brand. It is a local phone maker, justMicromax and Spice though not as popular, and mostly deals in low-cost feature phones. But justother local phone makers, Zen too sees a window of opportunity in the Android and the smartphone boom that the OS has sparked.
Ultrafone 701HD is an attempt by Zen Mobile to cash in on the demand for affordable smartphones in the country.

Under the screen, there are three standard buttons - home, back and menu.
