Samsung Galaxy A51

Expert Reviews | Nathan Spendelow

Overall, though, the Samsung Galaxy A51 is still the better choice in many ways. It's bigger, more powerful and looks nicer than the Xiaomi. Samsung also provides better post-launch software support, supplying Android updates on a more frequent basis.

... the A51 is a convincing effort that proves Samsung can make a good midprice phone that's worth buying.

Pocket-lint | Chris Hall

If you're a fan of Samsung's software that should balance up the pros column in the A51's favour, making this a reasonably polished mid-range choice.

The Samsung Galaxy A51 packs a nice big display and a light, ergonomic design as sleek as its flagship siblings. A good budget phone for Samsung fans that want the look of the S20 and Note series.

Trusted Reviews | Peter Phelps

The Samsung Galaxy A51 is a good, solid mid-range effort. There are no major flaws, but the processor and battery weren't quite as good as we'd been expecting.

Firstpost | Nandini Yadav

The A51 does lose out in the gaming department and its night camera isn't as good as the Redmi K20 Pro, but whether that matters to you or not is for you to decide.

The Indian Express | Hansa Verma

Samsung Galaxy A51 is targeted at users looking for a mid-premium Android option. There's a lot to like including the Infinity-O display, stylish design as well as good cameras and performance.

It has everything it needs for a mid-range phone right now, and yet it doesn't for one that's supposed to go strong into the latter stages of 2020. For a phone that the buyer may want to use for at least the next three years, the Galaxy A51 just doesn't evoke the kind of confidence with its hardware to warrant an outright recommendation.

Others may offer stronger performance, battery life and camera results, but the Galaxy A51 is bursting with great features and excels for movies and music

NotebookCheck | Florian Schmitt

The Galaxy A51 is a mid-range smartphone that does a good job in all areas and takes good photos.

Galaxy A51 is more of an off-line and conventional retail option, but comparisons will be made – in fact, there is every chance that a very similarly specced Galaxy M31 from Samsung itself might come with a lower price tag.

... if you're really itching for a Samsung phone and have some latitude in your budget, the slightly more powerful Galaxy A71 might be a better choice.

If you're serious about mobile gaming, you're better off picking up the Galaxy A52 instead

PC Mag | Steven Winkelman

If you're not a diehard Android fan and don't mind a smaller display, the iPhone SE is a significantly more powerful phone, and it's guaranteed to receive software updates for years to come.

Tom's Guide | Adam Ismail

The Samsung Galaxy A51 offers a nice design and attractive OLED display, but it's hamstrung by middling performance, cameras that underperform in low light and relatively short battery life.

Digital Trends | Christian de Looper

The Samsung Galaxy A51 is a solid phone, but it's up against some even more solid competition. That, however, doesn't make this a bad option. With a great display, modern design, and decent camera performance in the right conditions, the Galaxy A51 does have a lot to offer.

Gadgets Now | Shaurya Shubham

... with improved performance, display, battery, design and camera, the Galaxy A51 provides a good balance between features, price and performance. It's more than a competent phone for those who are looking at a mid-range device.

91mobiles | Kshitij Pujari

The best way to describe the Galaxy A51 is a jack of all trades. It ticks all the basic boxes, such as an exceptional display and decent cameras but it does fall slightly behind in terms of performance and battery.

phoneArena | Victor Hristov

At the end of the day, the Galaxy A51 is merely a decent mid-range phone that feels a bit pricey for what it is and definitely not a threat to the Pixel 3a.

... if you're looking for something a little more future-proof, it would make sense to skip the Galaxy A50s and go for the Galaxy A51 instead.

Android Authority | David Imel

Ultimately, I would only purchase the Samsung Galaxy A51 if you're hellbent on having a Samsung phone. Otherwise, the sluggish performance makes the experience too frustrating to use as a daily driver.

Neowin | João Carrasqueira

There are certainly positives to this phone, like some of the software features of OneUI and the display, but I only have to go a few months back to my review of the TCL Plex to find a reason not to buy the Galaxy A51.

Mashable India | Shomik Sen Bhattacharjee

The Galaxy A51 is surely an upgrade over the Galaxy A50s from last year, but it doesn't do enough to set the smartphone market alight.

Wired | Julian Chokkattu

The Galaxy A51 is fine. But fine just doesn't cut it these days, especially when you're Samsung.
