Editorial report
ZTE Blade A31 technical sheet
The ZTE Blade A31 suits anyone looking for a basic, lightweight phone: at 166 g, it is among the lightest phones launched around the same time. Its 2 GB / 32 GB configuration, however, leaves little memory. The 2 GB of RAM is among the lowest amounts, and its 32 GB of storage is less than most phones from that period offer.
The 5.45-inch IPS LCD display has a typical-for-its-time density of 295 ppi, while its 77.1% screen-to-body ratio is worse than most. The phone runs Android 11, has a fingerprint sensor and supports expandable storage. It also includes Dual Nano-SIM, NFC, dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.2 and a 3.5 mm audio jack; connectivity overall is worse than on most phones launched around the same time.
The rear camera’s 8 MP resolution is among the lowest of its time, and the phone has no optical image stabilization. Its 3000 mAh battery capacity is also among the lowest. Performance, camera and battery are among the weakest aspects of phones from the same period, while design and display are typical. With a NeoScore of 2.5, the ZTE Blade A31 is among the weakest phones of its time. It is best suited to anyone who wants a simple, lightweight phone and can accept its limited memory, camera resolution and battery capacity.
