I got to check its camera (pictures) last night in a restaurant, as my friend bought it. How can a phone that costs so much have camera this bad???
I'm not exaggerating at all when I say its camera is worse than cheaper phones like Huawei Y9 Prime. Even 100EUR Realme 3 'with Gcam' took better pictures than it.
Do. Not. Buy. It.
If you're buying Samsung, only buy Note or S series.
All these A & M series are overpriced piece of junk. And no, I'm not a hater. Good luck!

I bought the samsung a51 last week since my money was not enough to buy the latest a71. So after a week of used i experienced heat issues, the battery was discharging so fast. I felt bad for myself that i bought this phone since i have the option to buy the Oppo reno x4 with the same price as a51 (me is a samsung user) but after i updated the phone to UI 2.1 i was just happy that there is no heat issues at all and the battery will last long enough for you to be satisfied., So i will recommend everybody with heat issues to update the phone. Now i am happy and satisfied for this phone.

How does the indisplay FPS compare to the a50, even after all the updates it still kinda sucks!

I m using this phone about 2 weeks ago the handset quality is average but if they use glass on the back as well then I think it feels some good.
From the performance side, this phone is good like app opening speed and window animation.
Camra: from the camera side I think Samsung made a great lie about front cam is 32mp but to be honest its totally fucked image is smokey and pixel or so poor even Huawei have batter camera quality instead of this Samsung.
Back cam is also average but the slow-motion is too much bad quality and in low light, it's totally fucked up.
I never recommend this phone for gaming. From gaming side its an average if you want to go for good gaming experience then Xiaomi is way batter especially the MI series.
I have a suggestion for Samsung. Please do not lie with people
Because every person have a tight budget to buy a phone and i have bought this just because of there name and also i use note 9 that was an amazing device. So please make some worthy phones in budgets specially for pakistani people.

OK so I've had this phone for a week now and honestly, it's no where close to the negative descriptions that persons on here have made. I was soo afraid to buy it because of what I read and honestly, the phone is great. So I'll give a detailed review. My variant is the 4gb ram and 128gb storage option
Battery
The battery is great. I use my a51 for gaming, browsing, scanning through social media, taking lots of pictures and recording and I found that I'd normally end the day with around 20% in the tank. I run my screen at around 50% brightness all the time and my day normally ends around 10 pm. So do with that what you will. The battery is sufficient. Not the best in its class but it'll get the job done.
Performance
OK so contrary to the responses of many who class the performance as "mind blowing laggy" it really isn't. You'll find a hiccup here and there and the load time sometimes isn't the fastest in its class but AGAIN it is quite fine. A couple seconds or two hardly qualifies as problematic in my book. I was able to play COD and PUBG with zero issues. Not at the highest frame rate but the graphics were fine. Truly the performance is quite fine for me.
Cameras
The camera performance on all the cameras is great in the daytime. The shots are sharp, detailed and very punchy. I found that the autofocus was particularly responsive and the recording capabilities were very good as well. The macro camera is pretty useless to me but hey, maybe you like taking close up shots. All in all excellent performance in the daytime. In the night that's where the camera takes the hit. The shots can be grainy, not very sharp, lacking focus and just overall rather poor. Stick with well lit areas and you'll be fine
Design
I honestly don't get the buzz behind a glass back especially if you'll eventually put a case on but to each his own. The design is very sleek, the bezels display is eye candy. Many times I've gotten questions about the phone and honestly the screen is amazing. I love the color shift on this black model and the plastic build is fine by me. I don't have to worry about glass cracking if it falls on the back. Peace of.mind is always more important to me than a premium feel.
Final Comments
All in all, don't follow the persons on here who only give negative reviews. Half of them don't even own the phone. As a bona fide owner I can honestly say that my experience has been great so far and I didn't have to break the bank to get this phone. Yes there are hiccups here and there but in the scheme of things it's NEGLIGIBLE. You are guaranteed updates, ONE UI is one of the best Android skins out there and most of all you get great cameras. If you really want to buy this phone I think you might actually like it cause trust me, it has been an enjoyable experience

MarkKaraqi, 31 Aug 2020With root i will get more performance?
Maybe a little bit more, but not worth it. Rooting will void your warranty, put your phone at risk because it will grant access to the root of it.
Also rooting will break some of knox functions for good
