Title: Great mid-range phone for the price!
Review: I purchased the 128GB with 4GB ram model in all black. My wife's S8+ that was close to becoming non-functional and I needed a new phone asap. I had previously purchased an A20s for my son and so I first ordered the A30s until I did some research regarding my mobile provider T-Mobile in the US.I cancelled the A30s and got the A51 primarily because of the supported LTE bands. T-Mobile uses the following bands2, 4, 5, 12, 66, 71The A30s only supports band 5 from the that list!However, the A51 supports band 2, 4, 5, 12 and 66. I was gladly willing to pay a little more to ensure I had maximum connectivity with my carrier so I cancelled the A30s and purchased the A51 instead.Now with that primary consideration out of the way, on to the rest of the review. I'll start with the best parts first.1. Call quality, reception and connectivityThe call quality is excellent on this phone, right up there with my s10+. I think the microphone quality has been improved because my wife loves using the speakerphone and on her hold s8+, her voice occasionally cut out here and there as the mic tried to pick up her voice. Also, the sound quality of the voice has improved as well which further helps to understand the conversation. Reception has been about the same compared to my s10+, which is to say pretty good. We measured on signel strength and asu. The mobile data speeds are excellent even in areas that are typically weaker in signal strength.2. ScreenSamsung AMOLEDs are the best in the business when it comes to screen quality. We are a little relieved the screen is not curved because this allows us to get a robust case to protect everything. The colors, quality and resolution are all indistuingishable compared to my s10+. The front camera is a tiny pinhole so the entire body is pretty much all screen. There is an in-screen fingerprint reader which is optical, rather than infrasonic on my s10+ but it is still reasonably fast to unlock the phone. Yes it is slightly slower than my s10+ but we're talking milliseconds of difference.3. General usabilityMy wife is not a gamer so I can't say anything about the gaming experience but she does use a ton of media and productivity apps. For all of her use on them so far, she says they feel snappy. They all open fast and transition well and she multitasks as much as before without a shred of difference. When we first setup the phone, we were concerned because there was some UI lag but realized a lot of processing was being used during the Samsung Switch, which transfered her entire old phone to the new phone. Once the switch was done, we rebooted and the phone was responsive and fast.4. CameraThe camera hardware has some beefy specs. But for a mostly point-and-shooter, it's hard to really go wrong many camera setups. Picture quality looks great in the light and not as good in the dark compared to my s10+. The slower camera speed is noticeable, transitioning between the main camera/wide/macro takes about a half second, where on my s10+ is pretty much instant. The shutter is just as fast, luckily. If camera speeds are important to you, you would probably not be happy with this phone.5. BatteryI have to admit, we were looking forward to getting more usable time out of the battery. The battery is 4000mah unit and the s8+ was only 3500mah. However, through the typical daily use, we found that the end-of-day percentage left were about the same. We average about 4 hours of on-screen time scattered throughout the day with app use and web-browsing and the battery was around 40% left, which is the same as the s8+. If long battery life is important to you, you would not be happy with this phone but keep in mind, it can easily last an entire busy day on a single charge.Overall, we like the phone for the price of under $300.

Title: Great Phone, Great Value, Easy Setup
Review: Since this is a dual sim phone it was made primarily for international use. Although it was made for international use it works fine in the states. The big benefit is that this phone has been available in Europe for quite awhile, thus a good price drop of the mature international Samsung A51. Standard is 4 GB of memory and 128 GB of storage (not to many phones come with that amount of storage). The Samsung A51, American only model, has recently come out in the states and is considerably more expensive than the mature international version dual sim phone. Another fringe benefit, you can put two sim cards in the phone (only one is active at a time) but that allows you to have two different phone numbers for a single phone. The only surprise was turning it on for the first time. Everything was in Spanish. All of the initial setup was in Spanish. So, I backtracked displays a bit until I found an early display that allowed me to change the phone over to US "English" language. From that point on it was smooth sailing. Without a doubt, this was the easiest phone to set up I have ever owned. There is a Samsung App called Smart Switch (available from Google Play) that you put on your old phone that talks to a comparable Smart Switch on the Samsung A51. It basically transfers Apps, Files, Contacts, Calendars, Etc. from the old phone to the new one. In not sure if it is using NFC or Bluetooth, but it work great in transferring everything. It tells you what it could and couldn't transfer. The Quick-Start Guide is a little thin, I would highly recommend getting the PDF Users Manual from the Samsung Home Page! The manual is 197 pages, it unlocks the myriad of features on the phone. There is a Virtual Assistant "Bixby" included. Bixby seems to be much smarter than "Alexa" or "Siri". A nice surprise was the compatibility of the phone with my cars Bluetooth phone system. It paired effortlessly with the car and it also downloaded the entire contact list from the phone into the car system. I haven't had the phone long but thus far I have had a lot of "great" surprises. This was a great value getting the price break due to it being a mature international version of the Samsung A51. I will follow up after I use the device for a while to update my initial assessment of the international version of the Samsung A51 Smart Phone. There is a clear plastic display protector pre installed, there was nothing in the package that mentioned that.

Title: consider this phone
Review: This phone is fantastic. I've been an LG smartphone user since my first smartphone. LG has been a bit of a letdown as of late. I still love the brand but decided to make the jump to Samsung. I may be a convert. I cannot think of one bad thing to say of the A51. As far as budget phones go you could do much worse. The camera is awesome. Scratch that. Cameras. So many photo options. The food lense makes me feel like a pretentious food blogger. Or is that influencer? The battery is all day strong. The phone may be a little laggy (hardly ever for my needs) but I'm not trying to send people to Mars with my device. Suck it Elon. I found it for less than $300 and I am smitten with my purchase. If you are looking for a "budget" device stop now. Samsung S models are great but you don't really need to spend that much money on a phone. And god forbid you drink Apple's Kool-Aid. Do youself a favor and buy this phone. At the very least do your homework before making another phone purchase. The only other phone that can compete with this is the Moto G Power. #smartbuy #buynow #whateverkidssaynow

Review: I mainly use this phone for text, calling, taking pictures, browsing social media, as an alarm, playing gacha. So far it's a great phone. The camera is really good and takes nice pictures. I've never had a problem with the thumb print unlock. At it's worse i've had to do it twice because of bad thumb placement the first time. It 95 percent of the time unlocks first time with thumb print. It's got a decent amount of storage and also SD card slot. The screen looks very nice and looking at images looks very nice on the screen. The battery lasts me 2-3 days per charge, but with only light use. When I first got the phone, the hey google assistant was always on. This caused the battery to drain drastically over night. If you plug your phone in at night, you might not notice this. This was solved easily by going into settings and battery usage. There are probably some features to this phone, I am not using. But for the price I am really happy with it. My last phone was garbage compared to this. This is a solid mid range phone. It's not a flagship device, but for what you pay it's a great phone.

Review: I'm very pleased so far with the A51 international version with dual sim and 128 GB. The Canadian version sold by telcos is 50 to 70% more expensive and does not have dual sim and only 64GB storage. The international version does not have NFC but that was a feature I was not interested in. I am particularly pleased that it does not automatically load Telus/Bell bloatware like the Canadian Samsung phones do. I am disappointed that Samsung sells a phone in Canada with different features than the international version (NFC vs dual sim) under the same model number. I had originally purchased the Canadian model locally but returned it and purchased this one with no regrets. The phone came with charger, cable, headphones, screen protector pre-installed and a clear plastic case. The box was sealed with Samsung stickers and the phone had a plastic covering on it so everything seemed to be brand new. The startup screen initially starts up in Spanish but the language selection is quick and easy on that same screen after which there are no residual language issues. The warranty card with the phone indicates 1 year coverage in Central America so you are relying on the seller 90 day return (unless you are planning a trip to Puerto Rico or the Caribbean 😉 Based on the product price I am personally OK with the warranty risk.
