Comparison review
The Galaxy A51 5G is a bit better than the LG Velvet, with a score of 90.8 against 87.1. Although it's the best in this review, it must be noted that it's also a bit heavier and just a little bit thicker. LG Velvet has a little faster processor than Galaxy A51 5G. Both have the same number of cores and a 6 GB RAM memory.
The Galaxy A51 5G and LG Velvet feature incredibly similar screens, because although the Galaxy A51 5G has a quite lower 1080 x 2400 resolution and a quite smaller display, it also counts with a quite greater number of pixels per inch in the screen. Samsung Galaxy A51 5G has a slightly better camera than LG Velvet, although it has a tinier diafragm aperture which is not good for low-light photos and video, they both have the same (4K) video quality, the same 30 frames per second video frame rates, a same resolution back-facing camera and the same sensor size.
The LG Velvet has a quite bigger memory capacity for games and applications than Samsung Galaxy A51 5G, and although they both have equal internal storage capacity, the LG Velvet also has a slot for an external memory card that admits a maximum of 1,95 TB. The Samsung Galaxy A51 5G features a little better battery performance than LG Velvet, because it has 4500mAh of battery capacity.
Although Galaxy A51 5G is a better device, it is more expensive than LG Velvet, and it doesn't have such a good quality/price relation as LG Velvet. If you prefer to save some money, you can buy LG Velvet, and give up a few features and specifications, but you'll get the most out of your budget.
