Well, I purchased this Samsung A51 to replace my Samsung A50 because after the A50 updated to Android 9 Pie and January 2020 security update the battery life of A50 went way down by about 50 percent of what it was. So I bought the A51 (SM-A515F). This model is greatly improved battery wise it is superb! (See below)... PROS: 1)LTE works great and has all the necessary data bands to run LTE on my AT&T Service. I travel, so at different locations, AT&T Cell Towers have different bands, at home, I receive Band 2 (LTE/4G+). Around town I am on, bands 2,4,5 and sometimes Band 17 depending on the tower location. Even on the road, my Data works great and it is very fast! 2) WIFI...This is a super strong WIFI. I get 5 bars all over my home and outside in back yard, 4 bars. The WiFi is super fast and stays connected! 3) Storage Space and Battery Life...After the OS, Factory apps and after installing MANY LARGE APPS, I still have 109 GB left out of the 128GB, so I am very happy!

Phone: Coming from a broken S7 hoped A51 (non 5G by choice) would be better phone. Camera not the best unless I'm missing settings to match it. Buttons are completely confusing. Power and volume on the right and volume above the power. Instead of power on top right and volume below or on left. Which is Opposite of my Samsung tablet. Always hitting wrong buttons when switching back and forth. Purchase: bought phone online at BB because didn't have in the store. First attempt ended jn saying it was unavailable after letting me put in cart and go thru whole process of providing carrier information and credit card. Called and rep said it was in warehouse and available. She even tried it with her computer with same results. I tried it the next day again and it went through. Should have availability listed before putting in cart on the website.

It's an overall great device with spectacular graphics It takes great pictures but the volume on incoming calls is not loud enough. The manual online is 168 pages long and should be included with the device 4 easy referencing.
