Comparison review
The Galaxy A51 has a general score of 85.5, which is better than OnePlus Nord's score of 74.2. Both phones we are comparing come with Android operating system, but the Galaxy A51 has a more recent 11 version and OnePlus Nord has Android 10, so it provides the user a couple nice extra features. Even when Galaxy A51 and the OnePlus Nord were released with only 7 months difference, Galaxy A51 is just a little thinner and a little lighter.
Galaxy A51 features a screen that's very similar to the screen in OnePlus Nord, because although the Galaxy A51 has a just a bit lower screen pixels density, and they both have exactly the same resolution of 1080 x 2400, it also counts with a little bit bigger display. The Galaxy A51 counts with much more storage capacity to store more apps and games than OnePlus Nord, and although they both have the same 128 GB internal storage, the Galaxy A51 also has a slot for an external memory card that supports a maximum of 512 GB.
OnePlus Nord has a little faster processing unit than Samsung Galaxy A51, and although they both have a Octa-Core CPU, the OnePlus Nord also has a larger amount of RAM memory. OnePlus Nord has a slightly better camera than Samsung Galaxy A51, and although they both have the same 3840x2160 video resolution, a same size sensor, a same resolution camera in the back and the same 30 fps video frame rate, the OnePlus Nord also has a bigger diafragm aperture to take better low light captures and videos.
The OnePlus Nord counts with just a little better battery life than Galaxy A51, because it has a 4115mAh battery size instead of 4000mAh.
