Network : The bandwidths supported by the device may vary depending on the region or service provider. The Samsung Galaxy A51 has a 6.5-inch Super AMOLED screen with a 1080 x 2400 resolution. This is an instant win on paper, as many phones at the price have LCD screens. If you have a bit more to spend though you might also want to consider the newer Samsung Galaxy A52 5G. Samsung Galaxy A51 review: design The Samsung Galaxy A51’s draws are similar to those of other mid-price Samsungs. Its OLED screen is colorful, contrast is ultra-high, and Samsung’s software looks good.

However, this phone holds on to its reporting of ‘100%’ charge level for quite some time. On a second attempt, with the battery level starting below full, it lost 10%. We also re-ran the test in bright conditions to make the Samsung Galaxy A51 use its boosted brightness mode. It lost 13% charge at max brightness. All of these results are good, suggesting any shortfall in battery is not down to the display. Estimated against the usage profile of an average/typical user. Independently assessed by Strategy Analytics between 2021.12.08–12.20 in USA and UK with pre-release versions of SM-S901, SM-S906, SM-S908 under default setting using 5G Sub6 networks (NOT tested under 5G mmWave network). Actual battery life varies by network environment, features and apps used, frequency of calls and messages, number of times charged, and many other factors. Using our colorimeter, I found the Galaxy A51 covers 99% of the sRGB colour gamut in ‘Normal’ mode, with a total volume of 113%. Thanks to the screen’s AMOLED panel, contrast is effectively perfect and the screen is plenty bright, too. I measured a peak luminance of 478cd/m² with the auto-brightness setting engaged and a torch aimed directly at the ambient light sensor to simulate the brightest outdoor lighting. Samsung Galaxy A51 review: Performance and battery life With most titles you get an experience fairly close to that of a more expensive phone, which is a sweet consolation after the general performance hitches. The Samsung Galaxy A51's screen also makes games look great. But there’s a lot of Snapdragon-powered competition at the price, and they seem to offer more consistent results. The Galaxy A51 has a 4,000mAh battery, which is about as low a capacity as we are comfortable with in a phone with a 6.5-inch screen.

The Samsung Galaxy A51's 5MP macro camera will not see you win a Wildlife Photographer of the Year award, but it is fun to play around with. You can get extremely close to your subject, and shoot objects the main camera won't even focus on. Its main issue, other than only passable image quality, is blurring. A little handshake movement will ruin your photos unless the light level is good.One important part of the A51 is below average at the price, though: performance. The Galaxy A51 makes Android feel a little slow, more so than the usual app load discrepancy between a good affordable phone and a top-end one.

The A51’s camera works well enough when the light begins to fade, too. There’s a dedicated night mode in the “‘more” section of the phone’s camera app and it does a good job of brightening up low-light images while keeping visual noise to a minimum. The below picture was taken in my flat, with the curtains closed: The Samsung A51 does come with a fast charger, a lower end 15W one. Charge speed is not close to the "50% in 30 minutes" gold standard. A 30-minute charge from flat took the phone to 31% battery, and a full charge will take around two hours. The Samsung Galaxy A51 has four rear cameras. But when you first boot up the camera you may be left wondering what half of them do. The Samsung Galaxy A51 offers some of the design traits of Samsung's higher-end phones. But there are a few giveaways that it is not part of the pricey Galaxy S series.Display Size : Measured diagonally, the screen size is 164.0 mm (6.5") in the full rectangle and 160.9 mm (6.3") with accounting for the rounded corners. Actual viewable area is less due to the rounded corners and the camera cutout. It's not hard to spot the filler: those two 5MP cameras. But this case is much less egregious than, for example, what Oppo has tried recently. The Oppo A9 2020 has a couple of intensely useless 2MP cameras. The Galaxy A51 gains a slight advantage in the graphics tests. Here, the A51 delivers more frames per second in the GFXBench Manhattan 3.0 benchmark than both the A50 and Redmi Note 8T but it doesn’t quite reach the same score achieved by the Pixel 3a, which employs the Snapdragon 670:
