Samsung Galaxy M51 Review: Design and Build
Let’s address the elephant in the room first – Is the Galaxy M51 a bulky phone? Well, yes và no. If you just look at the numbers, it’s 9.3 milimet thick & weighs 213g – which positions it on the bulkier side of the spectrum.
However, we wouldn’t say the Galaxy M51 is a bulky phone. Within a 9.3mm clamshell, Samsung managed lớn fit in a monstrous 7000mAh battery và that is a huge achievement.

Honestly, we didn’t expect it to be handy at all, but it is. If the idea of an anxiety-free 7000mAh battery fascinates you, rest assured this convenience doesn’t come at that hefty a price.
To put the dimensions into a better perspective, mi Redmi chú ý 9 Pro packs a 5020mAh battery in an 8.8mm thick body toàn thân and weighs 209 grams. The Galaxy M31s with 6000mAh battery measures the same in thickness and weighs just 10 grams less.
In a quick glance, one can easily get confused between the Galaxy M51 and M31s. The exterior of the phone has the same eye-catching iridescent shade & 3D Glasstic design. It comes in Black & Dark xanh shades which are elegant & appealing.

Like most Samsung phones this year, the Galaxy M51 has a rectangular quad-camera array on the rear and a centrally aligned selfie camera that resides within a punch hole.
The rear camera module sits flush with the back và there is a raised lip around the periphery lớn protect it from scratches. Speaking of which, the glossy plastic back isn’t as resistant khổng lồ daily wear và tear. You will need a case to preserve that shine.


Bezels around the Infinity-O display are uniformly slim – which is not something we usually see on affordable and mid-range phones where the bottom bezels are almost always noticeably thicker.
On the right edge, it accommodates a volume rocker & a capacitive fingerprint scanner embedded nguồn button. The audio jack, USB Type-C port, and the mono speaker are positioned at the bottom.

Samsung Galaxy M51 Review: Display
The Galaxy M51 has a 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED Plus Infinity-O Display. Samsung says its new Super AMOLED Plus displays have been specially developed for such big battery phones và are thinner, lighter, and more energy-efficient compared khổng lồ existing AMOLEDs.

To be more precise, Samsung’s AMOLED Plus panel is up to lớn 13 percent slimmer than a conventional panel và also weighs up lớn 12 percent less, (as per Samsung internal test data). In comparison to an IPS LCD screen, the AMOLED Plus is up khổng lồ 43 percent slimmer and 28% lighter, claims Samsung.
As far as we can tell, Shaving of panel thickness & heft hasn’t had any impact và the picture quality. This is a great screen for consuming multimedia content, one of the very bests in the under 30K price segment.
Having said that, It’s still missing high-refresh-rate and associated fluidity – something that OnePlus Nord delivers in the same budget. Whether or not this is a dealbreaker should be subjective to lớn individual taste. At this point in time, we’d say that to settle for a 60Hz screen is an acceptable compromise.
Galaxy M51 supports HD streaming across popular apps like Netflix, Prime Videos Disney+ Hotstar etc. It also has HDR 10 tư vấn but currently it is only limited to lớn Youtube. The peak brightness of 420 Nits is enough to read outdoors but certainly not the brightest in the segment.

Like all previous M-series phones, there are several bloatware apps pre-installed on the Galaxy M51 including Chingari, DailyHunt and a few others, but most of these can be uninstalled. Once again, Samsung has integrated Glance Lock Screen Stories, which pushes photos and stories on the lock screen. Users can disable Lock Screen poster if they wish. Some of the Samsung apps hog precious notification space and we ended up turning their notifications off.
Where Samsung takes a leap is switching lớn a competent Snapdragon processor. Samsung has sourced a Qualcomm Snapdragon 730G chipset for the Galaxy M51, which in spite of being a year old cpu addresses our biggest M-series peeve point.

Well, I managed lớn play graphics-intensive games like Call of Duty with very high graphics and very high frame rates setting without many hiccups.

The 12MP ultra-wide camera is by far the best in the segment. In the past we have complained about the lack of details & crispness in ultra-wide shots in M-series phones, well thankfully Samsung managed to address those with the Galaxy M51. The ultra-wide sensor here captures a good amount of details & an improved dynamic range. There are also a 5MP depth & macro cameras which are fun lớn play with but nothing substantial.
For selfies, there’s a 32MP camera on the front that does a good job offering above-average detail và fairly accurate skin tones. There is 4K at 30fps tư vấn for both front and back cameras. The Super Steady recording mode is also present for the rear-camera but you can only use it khổng lồ record videos in full HD resolution.
