Summary
- The Lenovo S939 features a larger 6.0-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 720 x 1280 pixels, while the ZTE Blade A31 has a smaller 5.45-inch IPS LCD with a higher resolution of 720 x 1440 pixels, resulting in a denser pixel density.

- Battery capacity is the same at 3000 mAh, but both lack fast charging and wireless capabilities.
