Conclusion with my Verdict
Though the price rate of Micromax A116 Canvas HD Fablet is a little higher than that of Swipe MTV Volt but with a better and ridiculous processor and very high resolution, Micromax Canvas HD will surely lead the development of Fablets to a pinnacle before the public. The other eye catching difference which I noticed between the two Smartphones is the Display and the Screen Resolution. Swipe MTV Volt is quite interesting with a 6-inch display but personally I think that any versatile Smartphone above 5-inch doesn't act as too handy to work with. And talking about Micromax A116 Canvas HD Smartphone, it is quite better with a 5-inch screen and a resolution of 1280×720pixels.
