Samsung - Galaxy A51 5G UW 128GB - Prism Bricks Blue (Verizon)

To deal with the 4 stars 1st, the reasons the A51 I didn't give 5 stars were 1) the length of charging chord is short to the point where you're going to be lucky if you can plug it in and use at the same time if you don't happen to have a chair right next to an outlet and you'll struggle to be able to plug in and have the phone on a bedside table. 2) The second reason is not particularly significant to me, but I do wonder if the battery life may be shorter than a heavy streaming content user would like. Other than those 2 points, I can't fault the phone for an everyday user. There are a lot of you tube vids for this phone that take little digs here and there. For example, the camera is great for 95% of users who are just doing their normal Facebook/Instagram stuff. However, the micro dissection on youtube would make you think it stinks. Those videos are total garbage by idiots who try to impress us with technical knowhow, but probably do no more than take selfies with the cats and stuff like that as does everyone else.

Easy to use and configure. Verizon reception is very good

It’s a great phone, quick, intuitively obvious settings. The one thing that is not terrific is the biometrics. It has to scan my fingerprints too many times, and it has to perfectly align with the fingerprint area. My iPhone read my fingerprints if they were crooked, on a daily basis for about five years, so I don’t know why this is so difficult. Nothing like having your phone lock up when you really need it! Other than that one thing, so far, its a great phone.

I am moderately satisfied with my new Samsung-Galaxy cell phone. If Samsung had provide a book to help me learn how to use it, I would by much more satisfied. I am 70 years old, am not electronic-savvy. Other people have had to show me how to do certain things, even how to answer the phone when it was ringing, and how to answer a text message to the county health department in regards to my covid shot. When I have time to sit in a moderately comfortable chair in front of my computer, I will read the info from the links that are there with my phone in one hand. My flip phone was much easier to figure out how to use.

I have always been a fan of the Samsung Galaxy phones and have had them for years. The only complaint I would make is that the external speaker volume on this model is too low for me. I like to run without the use of headphones/ear buds & the volume could be better.

I have been pleased overall, however, the battery has held as long as I expected. It was an easy adjustment going from a Samsung Galaxy 8. I did prefer the location of the on and off button on the 8s. It made it easier to do screen shots when the 2 buttons were on opposite sides of the phone.

Am trying to work my way around this phone. The instruction pamphlet is not much help. Some of the features from my old phone don t seem to be present or I can t find them because the instruction booklet doesn t tell you how. When i try to find what Im looking to do on the phone it s hard to figure out. Speed is good, Picture clarity good
