Motorola G 5G vs Samsung Galaxy M51: Conclusion
Let me make this simple for you,
Motorola G 5G has 5G support and it’s powered Snapdragon 750G processor which is by far best SoC to get at 21k. The phone also has fast charging support and good battery life and at Rs 20,999, there is nothing more to complain about. Keep in mind, Motorola G 5G doesn’t have the best cameras at this price range, so if you want better cameras then you have to skip 5G and go with 4G.
Talking about Galaxy M51 (review), this phone has best camera setup, massive 7,000 mAh battery with 25W fast charging support but the phone is running on Snapdragon 730G processor which is not as powerful has Snapdragon 750G.
Overall to get better cameras, you will lose out on 5G and performance while when you go with 5G, you will lose out on massive battery and cameras. In shorts, to get something, you have to give up something.
Which one would I buy?
I would go with Samsung Galaxy M51 because I don’t play many games on smartphone and I can live without 5G. Now, if you play lots of games on smartphone and cameras is not the highest priority then it’s better to go with Motorola G 5G and also with OTA updates, the cameras will get better.
That’s it for now, I hope you got your answer but still if you have any kind of question then do let me know in the comment box below.
