Editorial report

Motorola Moto G51 5G 4 GB / 128 GB / China technical sheet

The Moto G51 5G suits anyone looking for a large, fluid display, 5G connectivity, and practical features; the trade-offs are its weight and charging that is slower than on most phones of its time. Its 6.8-inch IPS LCD has a 120 Hz refresh rate and 1080 × 2400 px resolution. The 85.6% screen-to-body ratio is higher than on most phones launched around the same time. The fingerprint reader is on the side.

This version pairs 4 GB of RAM with 64 GB of expandable storage. The Moto G51 5G is also sold in 4 GB / 128 GB and 8 GB / 128 GB configurations. The Snapdragon 480 Plus 5G, LPDDR4X RAM, and eMMC 5.1 storage make up this configuration. For photos, it has a 50 MP main camera, an 8 MP ultrawide, and a 2 MP macro camera. The main camera sensor is smaller than those in most phones of its time, and optical image stabilization is absent.

The battery has a typical capacity of 5,000 mAh, while 10 W charging is slower than on most phones launched around the same time. Connectivity includes 5G, NFC, dual SIM, and Bluetooth 5.1, alongside a 3.5 mm audio jack and stereo speakers. Its overall NeoScore is 4.9. This is a fit for people who prioritize a large 120 Hz display and 5G over faster charging and a lighter phone.
