HTC 728 Ultra Edition uses a 2, 800 mAh battery to fuel its components. Also, the chipset supports fast charging to replete the lost battery juice in no time.
On the photography front, it flaunts a 13 MP ( f/2.2 aperture) rear shooter aided by LED flash. For the sake of Selfies, it exhibits a 5 MP ( f/2.8 aperture) front snapper.
It comes loaded with a Photo Editor that features Double Exposure, Face Fusion and more. And notably, it packs decent dual frontal Boomsound speakers that support Dolby Audio for an immersive audio experience.
The handset runs HTC Sense UI based on Android 5.1( Lollipop) which is upgradable to Android 6.0( Marshmallow) . HTC 728 supports dual SIM cards and as connectivity options, it features 4G, Wi-Fi ( both Direct and Hotspot) , Bluetooth v4.1, GPS, A-GPS, GLONASS and microUSB 2.0.
