ZTE Blade A31 Review: specs and features, camera quality test, gaming benchmark, user opinions and photos
ZTE Blade A31 Overview
ZTE Blade A31 - faceless novelty
It is difficult to deny the efforts of the Chinese company ZTE to return to its previous leadership positions, however, the filling of the assortment still remains heterogeneous for the manufacturer. Along with models strong in terms of price and functionality, there are openly pass-through products like the hero of today's review. What exactly are the disadvantages that prevent the phone from claiming great sales?
The design for a gadget at the turn of the low and middle price segment is extremely good. The rear panel is adorned with three cameras and a fingerprint sensor and looks decent in both blue and black color options. On the front, the phablet pleases with the narrow bezels of the screen, but at the same time the outdated design of the 5-megapixel selfie camera. The 6.5-inch display is inferior to the exterior in terms of causing positive emotions. The resolution of 1600 x 720 pixels is clearly insufficient for the clarity of the picture, the brightness and contrast are also mediocre.
The choice of technical characteristics is also strange. Many resource-intensive games are not optimized for the UNISOC SC9863processor , so the chipset, even together with 3 / 4GB ofRAM and the PowerVR GE8322 graphics accelerator, is not able to please the smooth operation of demanding applications even with minimal graphics settings. On the other hand, if the user does not categorize himself as a gamer, then the CPU performance is enough for the almost lightning-fast operation of Android11 . The volume of internal storage is 32 / 64GB and expandable with microSD cards , so you don't have to worry about a lack of memory.
The trio of photo modules is headed by a simple 13-megapixel photosensor for daytime shooting with static events. Auxiliary modules are installed for the beauty of the appearance of the device; their influence on the final quality of images tends to zero. It is better not to try complex scenarios of photography with the described cameras. Let's move on to the advantages of the device again. Autonomy at the level of an impressive 11-12 hours of active screen time is the merit of a capacious 5000mAh battery, but you should not hope for its fast charging. Unfortunately for fans of contactless payments, there is no NFC support. Summing up the above, we cannot unambiguously recommend the considered device for purchase due to its technological backwardness and absolutely not outstanding photographic capabilities.
