Editorial report

LG K51S technical sheet

The LG K51S is suited to basic everyday use, but its performance falls behind most phones launched around the same time. Its AnTuTu benchmark is worse than most, while 3 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage are below average. Storage can be expanded, giving room for more files.

The 6.55-inch IPS LCD display has a resolution of 720 × 1600 px and a pixel density of 282 ppi, below average for its time. The display covers 84% of the front, above average, and the 8.3 mm body is slimmer than most phones launched around the same time. Its main camera resolution of 32 MP is above average; ultrawide, macro and depth cameras round out the rear setup. There is no optical image stabilization or optical zoom. The 4,000 mAh battery and connectivity overall are both below average among phones launched around the same time.

Features include NFC, USB Type-C, a 3.5 mm audio jack and dual Nano-SIM support. Android 9 and the lack of direct OS updates place its software in an older generation. Overall, the LG K51S is worse than most phones launched around the same time. It can suit straightforward needs, but its weaker performance and below-average battery capacity are meaningful compromises. Its NeoScore is 4.0.
