Editorial report
LG K51 technical sheet
The LG K51 suits people looking for a straightforward phone for everyday basics, provided they can accept performance worse than most phones of its time. Its AnTuTu result of 92,000 is below most, and this configuration has 3 GB of RAM and 32 GB of storage. Storage is expandable, giving room for additional files on a memory card.
The 6.5-inch IPS LCD display has a 720 × 1560 px resolution and 264 ppi, a pixel density among the weakest of its time. The camera package, by contrast, stands better than most phones launched around the same time. The 13 MP camera includes optical image stabilization and is joined by an ultrawide camera. Video recording reaches 1080p at 30 fps; there is no optical zoom.
A 4000 mAh battery is below average. Everyday connections include NFC, USB Type-C, Wi-Fi 5, Bluetooth 5.0 and a 3.5 mm audio jack. The phone runs Android 9 with Google services. With a NeoScore of 4.1, the LG K51 makes more sense for someone after basic features and a stabilized camera than for anyone prioritizing stronger performance or greater battery capacity.
