The Galaxy A51 was announced last month in Vietnam. The handset boasts a 6.5-inch Infinity-O (Punch-Hole) Super AMOLED display with a 20:9 aspect ratio and FHD+ resolution. The smartphone is powered by Exynos 9611 that comes paired with 8GB of RAM. The camera department is composed of a 48MP main camera paired with a 12MP 123-degree ultra-wide sensor, 5MP macro, and 5MP depth helper. On the front, the punch-hole serves a house for the 32MP front-facing snapper. The handset comes with Samsung’s Super Steady Video feature. It eliminates screen flickering when users record videos of a moving object or on the move.

Despite the mid-range nature, the Galaxy A51 also includes a premium in-display fingerprint scanner. Moreover, it has dedicated dual-SIM and microSD card slots. That’s a feature that will be very appreciated among Indian customers. The smartphone will be available in Blue, White, Pink and Black Color options. All of them feature a diamond-cut design with a gradient-like finish. The handset draws power from a 4,000mAh battery with 15W Super Fast Charging tech. Last but not least, it runs Android 10 OS with OneUI 2.0 running atop.
In Vietnam, the smartphone is available for around 7,990,000 VND (US$ 346). That’s around Rs. 24,485 in India. However, we can’t use it as a base for the final price in the Indian market. However, we’ll know everything in two days.

I have the A70. After 3 days, I dropped the phone. From waste height. Broke the screen. I then found out it only used Gorilla Glass 3. The sales team told me it was 5. That aside, Nice specks on the A51. Is it also using the crappy Gorilla Glass 3??
