I spent some time Galaxy M51 When the smartphone was first released First impression Its. I was worried about the size and weight, but after using this smartphone for a few days, it can be said that it is easy to live. You might think that a 7,000mAh battery would make the phone very big, but that’s not the case here. Samsung was able to distribute the weight pretty well, and the phone doesn’t feel like it tipping over. However, it weighs 213g, and you can feel this after using it for a while.

Samsung Has an Infinity-O display. That is, there is a hole for the front camera in the center of the top of the screen. All screen borders are thin.

The display has Corning Gorilla Glass 3 protection.

The volume button is also on the same side, but it’s a bit harder to reach because it’s higher. The Galaxy M51 has a 3.5mm headphone jack, located at the bottom along with a USB Type-C port and speakers.

The Galaxy M51’s “Glasstic” back is very shiny

There’s a “Glasstic” on the back of the Galaxy M51, so it’s no surprise you’ll be mistaken for a Galaxy A-series smartphone. I had a Celestial black color that was very shiny and picked up dirt very easily. The box didn’t have a protective case, so I had to keep wiping the phone to maintain its shiny glow. The quad camera module is located in a corner about the same height as the back of the phone.

Samsung ships with a 25W charger. This is also what I saw on the Galaxy M31. This allows you to charge a large capacity battery relatively quickly.

Samsung Galaxy M51 Specifications: Battery Monster

The Samsung Galaxy M51 also features a new Nearby sharing feature that makes transferring files between supported devices much easier.

Samsung Galaxy M51 Performance: Excellent Performance

The Samsung Galaxy M51 provided powerful performance and never showed any signs of slowing down while I was using it. We found that the fingerprint scanner could unlock the smartphone quickly, so we didn’t have to actually try it more than once. The face recognition function had the same speed and accuracy. I enjoyed watching the video on the Galaxy M51, thanks to the punchy output of the display. The hole in the front camera is in the center, which can be distracting.

We ran some benchmarks to see where the Galaxy M51 is compared to its competitors. At AnTuTu, the Galaxy M51 managed to score 2,64,696 points.

Many people will be interested in battery life, as they don’t see mobile phones with a 7,000mAh battery every day like I do. My basic usage was to run a benchmark, take a picture, make a few phone calls, and the phone lasted more than two days on a single charge. In our HD video loop test, the phone was usable for 32 hours. This is the best performance we’ve seen in a long time, from any phone, at any price. The included 25W charger was quick and took only about 2 hours to fully charge.

Samsung Galaxy M51 Camera: Great for Photography

Samsung has adopted the Galaxy M51 quad camera setup and the configuration is Galaxy M31s (Review). It has a 64-megapixel primary camera with an f / 1.8 aperture, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera with a field of view of 123 degrees, a 5-megapixel macro camera, and a 5-megapixel depth sensor.

The Galaxy M51 quickly locked the focus, and the scene optimizer was able to quickly recognize what the camera was pointing at. The photos taken in the sunlight proved to have the right details and the right dynamic range. Objects in the distance were recognizable and some text was readable. The Galaxy M51 also automatically enables HDR in bright scenes for great shots. I thought a wide-angle camera would be useful for wide-angle shooting, but there was noticeable distortion at the edges of the photo. Low-resolution wide-angle cameras also do not capture the same level of detail as the primary sensor.

It takes 16 megapixel shots by default from the Galaxy M51, but you have the option to take pictures at full 64 megapixel resolution. Photos taken at full resolution have better details, but lack sharpness and dynamic range. The single-take feature works exactly like the Galaxy M31s, offering multiple output options after recording a 15-second clip.

The close-up shot taken with the Galaxy M51 was sharp and had a soft depth effect in the background. Samsung’s live focus mode also allows you to take portraits and preview the level of blur in the viewfinder before shooting. As long as the object was stationary, the output had decent edge detection. You can also change the level of blurring and the type of blurring after taking a shot. With a 5-megapixel macro camera, you can get closer to your subject and capture the right details.

The selfies I took with the Galaxy M51 are very good and the phone makes them smooth by default. Photos are taken at 8 megapixels by default, but you can switch to a wider 12 megapixel resolution. You also have the option to capture a full resolution selfie of 32 megapixels. In low light, the selfie camera worked well and was able to capture every detail. You can also use the live focus mode to take a selfie. When I turned on the mask, the AI ​​didn’t recognize my face and couldn’t blur the background, but it worked as expected without the mask. This is something Samsung can fix with a small update.

Video recording is recording 4K with a primary camera and a selfie camera. There is a slight sparkle effect at 1080p and 4K when the smartphone tries to stabilize the footage. It can be shot in sunlight or in dark places. Samsung uses a super wide-angle camera and offers a super stable mode that does a much better job. However, it will only be shot at 1080p and the output will be dimmed.

verdict

With the Samsung Galaxy M51, the Galaxy M series is now available in a wider price range. The Galaxy M51 has a large battery of 7,000 mAh, so I think it’s getting a lot of attention, but the battery life is very good. The Snapdragon 730G SoC also offers excellent performance and will satisfy people at this price.

The camera is good, but video stabilization can be done with a few tweaks to improve performance. of Galaxy M51 The Galaxy M51 should be a strong candidate if it easily lasts most of the competition on every charge and has a high battery life on the priority list. of OnePlus North (Review) Is suitable when general performance is important.
