Reviews for the LG K51
Source: Android Authority
Archive.org versionIf you want an entry-level smartphone that looks and feels far beyond its price, the LG K51 just might be for you. It’s large and in charge, and the display and speaker are great for streaming videos and music. Even better, the 4,000mAh battery lasts longer than all day, and the headphone jack means you can keep your favorite songs to yourself. However, this isn’t a processing powerhouse, and you might want to look elsewhere if you have gaming or heavy usage in mind. There are also question marks over support, as LG has decided to withdraw from the smartphone business. If you’re concerned with software and security updates (you should be!) then there are more reliable alternatives. The LG K51 sits close to the OnePlus Nord N200 ($239) in terms of pricing, though OnePlus has the better spec sheet by a solid margin, not to mention that the N200 offers 5G on T-Mobile’s network. You may also want to give Motorola’s Moto G series a look, especially the Moto G Power ($249). One final rival to consider is Nokia’s 5.4 ($249) with four times the storage, a pacier processor, and better cameras on both sides.

It is a small display format for smartphones. You shouldn't be severely defective in vision, and you won't see much detail on the screen and only have a small resolution available. For that, the device should be small and handy, easy to transport.

70%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
