    good size does not feel too big in hand. Good speed but could be faster. feels sluggish sometimes. Display is fantastic and even at 60 hz feels smooth. can not do anything big like gaming and lags severely doing high performance apps or tasks, But very adequate for daily use. Battery life is decent

    Nice big screen. Vibrant colors. I like the slim design and lightweight. Good battery life. Good price. Camera will not always produce clear pictures. Talk to text is subpar. Talking into the phone sometimes will not work and words you speak are not texted accurately.

    I am not a heavy phone user, and I was upgrading from my old Samsung Galaxy 3. So this phone was perfect for my needs and didn't break the budget especially since Best Buy was running a sale on it. I didn't buy it to play games or watch movies, just call, text and email. Google a few things, catch up on a news story. You get all of the Samsung quality and many of the features of the top line phones but at a lot less. Easy to use, fast and 5G for future network upgrades.

    Bought this phone for my Mother-in-Law. Great product if you aren't looking for the top-of-the-line. Great display, easy interactive menus. Battery life is very good. She spends a lot of time on it and only charges it once to full charge each night. I locked her homescreen layout and placed it in easy mode.

    This phone was for my wife as a replacement. I was surprised to see it was a 5G samsung cellphone and the price was half of a the special s20. I has all the features needed for a non tech person, yet is easy to use. calls are clear and the y do not drop on the AT & T plan. It is the perfect phone for her.

    Replacement for Galaxy S7

    I wanted an A51 5G to replace my old Galaxy S7. Went to the ATT store which was out of them; they recommended Best Buy. The rep at Best Buy was TERRIFIC (Kelly in Mooresville). The phone itself is fast and has a terrific battery. It's more phone than this old lady needs, but I'm very happy with it and with Best Buy. The only downside is that phones have gotten bigger but my hands have not.

    After a few week's use, I am quite happy with my choice of the Galaxy A51 5G phone. Fast, easy to navigate, great reception and battery life. It has all of the features that I need in a cell phone, don't need all the extra bells and whistles. Only one problem, they dumped the bottle cap notification.

    The A51 Galaxy, is an excellent product for the price. The camera takes very good quality pictures. This phone has all the functions you will need for business or pleasure. FYI, the phone is a little slower on updating then I was expecting, however it is not a deal killer for me.

    Bought this phone for my mother in law. Was a serious upgrade from an ancient Samsung. She loves it! Says its super easy to use, can hear calls clearly, and screen is good and bright. We've been using Samsung phones in our family for years and this was a worthwhile update!

    The phone sound and microphone are excellent.... The camera is awesome and intuitive. Internet activities are fast and it works great linking to my laptop without asking. I can answer phone calls and text without picking up my phone. Once I was able to turn off Bixby, it was great.

    Decent, mid-level Android phone. So far, seems fast and intuitive. Nothing blowing me away as far as features, but I don't feel like I'm lacking anything, either. Favorite feature is the wide-angle lens for the camera.
