Samsung’s popular A-series lineup in Nepal gets two new members today, the Galaxy A51 and Galaxy A71. Both phones bring upgrades over its predecessor — the Galaxy A50 and Galaxy A70 — in terms of camera hardware as well as aesthetics.
Samsung Galaxy A71
Starting off with the Samsung Galaxy A71; it’s a premium mid-ranger that runs on Snapdragon 730 chipset accompanied by 8GB of RAM. The phone is built around a 6.7-inch FHD+ Super AMOLED Plus Infinity-O display.
At the rear is a set of quad-camera that gets 64MP primary sensor, a 12MP ultrawide shooter with 123-degree FoV, a 5MP depth unit, and finally a 5MP dedicated macro lens. Samsung has baked in features like Live Focus, Smart Switch, and Super Steady Video to go with these cameras. The large teardrop notch at the front sees a 32MP f/2.2 selfie camera.
Powering the phone is a 4,500mAh battery with 25W fast charging carried through a Type-C port. Out of the box, the A71 runs on Samsung’s One UI 2 based on Android 10.

Samsung Galaxy A51
Albeit similar design, the Galaxy A51 can be set apart from the A71 in terms of hardware. To start with, the A51 has a smaller 6.5-inch Infinity-O Super AMOLED display with FullHD+ resolution. Similarly, there’s a fingerprint scanner underneath the display, while the top gets an identical 32MP selfie camera.
Flaunting a mirror back with a diamond-cut design, the phone also happens to carry an L-shaped quad-camera setup, just like the A71. However, inside, the primary camera sees a downgrade to the 48MP sensor, while the rest of the camera specs are almost similar to that of A71.
Another difference is the processing unit, which is Exynos 9611 SoC — similar to the A50s — paired with 6GB of RAM and 128GB of UFS 2.0 storage which is expandable via microSD card.
