Comparisons Featuring Lenovo S939
Short Review
- The Lenovo S939 features a large 6.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, providing decent clarity at approximately 245 ppi.
- Its design is characterized by dimensions of 159 x 84 x 8.7 mm and a weight of 171.5g, making it relatively portable despite its size.
- Performance is driven by a Mediatek MT6592 chipset with an octa-core 1.7 GHz Cortex-A7 CPU and 1GB of RAM, which handles basic tasks adequately.
- The camera system includes an 8 MP rear camera with autofocus and a 1.6 MP front-facing camera, suitable for casual photography.
- Battery life is supported by a 3000 mAh capacity, though it lacks fast or wireless charging capabilities.
- The device runs on Android 4.2 (Jelly Bean), which may feel outdated compared to newer versions.
- Connectivity options include Wi-Fi 802.11 b/g/n and Bluetooth 4.0, but it does not support 5G or NFC.
- The phone is equipped with a microUSB 2.0 port and retains a headphone jack for audio.
- Overall, the Lenovo S939 offers a basic smartphone experience with standard features for its release period.
- Special features are minimal, focusing primarily on essential functionalities.
