Hello everyone, In this post, we’re going to do a comparison of 2 major smartphones of the mid-range price segment. We have the Samsung Galaxy M51 and the Realme 7 Pro. Both of these devices come with quite good hardware and great cameras and a lot of techs include in these two devices. So which of these devices is the better device to buy if you are looking for a mid-ranger device. Let’s get started into the detailed aspect. So we will be comparing the Realme 7 Pro with the Qualcomm Snapdragon 720G and the 60GB RAM variant. On another side, we have the Qualcomm Snapdragon 730 G Octa-core processor on the Samsung Galaxy M51 with the 6GB RAM.

If you look at the design, the Samsung Galaxy M51 is having a quite decent design it is not a standout design so that’s nothing different. If you look at the Realme 7 pro design this feels a bit more refreshing than the Samsung Galaxy M51. You can see that the dual pattern on the Realme 7, it looks better. So in terms of design language, we feel that the Realme 7 Pro has a better-looking design.
Looking at the weight and form factor the Real me 7 pro is a bit more compact and lightweight device and also slimmer and easy to use than the Samsung Galaxy M51. The M51 with a higher capacity battery is a thicker device. If you look at the front panel, you can see that the punch hole is only differentiating aspect. We have a punch-hole display on the Center on the M51, while it’s on the left side on the Realme 7 Pro. So both the devices have a pretty good overall front panel design. In terms of design overall, we feel the Realme 7 is a slightly better-looking device. Talking about the build quality, the Realme’s panel looks better and a bit more premium looking. So here in terms of build quality, we would say that Realme 7 Pro is a better choice. Samsung’s panel has not been that great it’s quite the average. So the build quality is definitely better on the Realme 7 Pro.
Moving on to the displays, both the devices have AMOLED displays, We have a SUPER AMOLED display on the Samsung Galaxy M51 and both are Full HD resolutions. The display quality is equally good on both the phones both are having the emulated panels. The Samsung simulator is a bit more refreshing vibrant and a bit brighter overall in terms of the display quality. So we feel that the display is slightly better on the Samsung Galaxy M51. Samsung’s emulated panel is a bit brighter and even colourful than the Realme 7.
Performance
| Galaxy M51 | Realme 7 Pro | |
| Processor | Octa-core (2×2.2 GHz) | Octa-core (2×2.3 GHz) |
| GPU | Adreno 618 | Adreno 618 |
| RAM | 6/8 GB | 6/8 GB |
| Internal storage | 128 GB | 128 GB |
| Storage expansion | Up to 512 GB | Up to 256 GB |
| OS | Android v10 (Q) | Android v10 (Q) |
Moving on to the software aspect, both the devices have a completely different UIS we have the Realme UI 1.0 on the Realme 7 Pro while we have the UI 2.0 in fact 2.1 on the Samsung M51. Both have Android 10 out of the box.
Moving on to the performance, we have two different processes from the 700 series. We have the Snapdragon 720G on the Realme 7 pro while we have Snapdragon 730 G on the Samsung M51. The 720 G and 730 G both are equally good but 720 G is slightly better in terms of the GPU performance, while 730G is more into CPU performance. so if you look at the day-to-day aspects, we don’t really see any major difference even in terms of gaming we didn’t see any major difference. Looking at the aspects a performance side we would say equally good on both the phones so here there is no clear winner.
Both have 6 GB RAM as well as 8 GB RAM is being offered along with a 128 GB internal storage and a 256 GB storage. The fingerprint scanner is kind of different, we have a side-mounted fingerprint scanner on the Samsung Galaxy M15 while we have them in-display fingerprint scanner on the Realme 7 Pro. In-display fingerprint scanner is definitely a better tech. In the speed again Realme 7 Pro was a lot faster than the M51.
Camera
| Galaxy M51 | Realme 7 Pro | |
| Rear | 64 MP, f/1.8, 26mm (wide) 12 MP, f/2.2, (ultrawide) 5 MP, f/2.4, (macro) 5 MP, f/2.4, (depth) | 64 MP, f/1.8, 26mm (wide) 8 MP, f/2.3,16mm (ultrawide) 2 MP, f/2.4, (macro) 2 MP, f/2.4, (depth) |

| Video recording | 4K@30fps, 1080p@30fps | 4K@30fps, 1080p@30/60/120fps, |
Now next, let’s move on to one of the most important aspects of the camera performance so we have two camera UIS with two different UIS with the same sensor. We have the Sony IMX 682 Sensor on both the devices. We have an 8 MP Ultra wide-angle sensor on the Realme 7 Pro with a depth sensor as well as the macro sensor. While we have a 12 MP Ultra Wide angle lens on the Samsung M51 with a 5 MP Macro and then you also get a 2 Megapixel or rather 5 Megapixel depth sensor. The front camera is also almost similar, we have 32 Megapixel selfie camera on the Samsung Galaxy M51. The Samsung M51 does not offer 60 FPS while the Realme UI of Realme 7 Pro offer 60 FPS for 1080p resolution.
Both are equally good, have good colors, good dynamic range, details are there the sharpness levels was slightly better on the M51. Both have the Sony IMX 682 sensor and does a really good job here. We would have gone with the Samsung Galaxy M51 but the Realme 7 Pro is equally good in terms of the camera.
Multimedia
| Galaxy M51 | Realme 7 Pro | |
| Headphone jack | 3.5 mm | 3.5 mm |
| Loudspeaker | Yes | Yes |
| FM Redio | FM radio | FM radio |
Now talking about the speaker quality, we would say the Realme 7 Pro speaker was slightly better than the M51. It has a decent speaker again we have said that the speaker isn’t very loud in terms of experience especially when you have a bigger display and great capacity battery this is used as a multimedia device. Real me seven pro was better. Now call quality is equally good on both the devices. Both have voice of Wi-Fi and Dual LTE Volte support which is almost similar in terms of the experience.
Battery Life
| Galaxy M51 | Realme 7 Pro | |
| Capacity | 7000 mAh | 4500 mAh |
| Type | Li-ion | Li-ion |
| Quick Charging | Fast charging 25W | Fast charging 65W |
| Use Can Replacement | No | No |
Now finally the battery life and the charging technology. We have a 65 WATT super dart charger on the Realme 7 Pro which charges the device in like 35 minutes or 40 minutes but it has a 4500 mAh capacity battery on the device. We have a massive 7000 mAh capacity battery with 25 WATT fast charging. So if you’re looking at the highest speed charging then Realme 7 Pro has the tech 65 WATT super dot but if you’re looking for better battery life the Samsung Galaxy M51 is a stellar device in terms of battery life.
Connectivity
| Galaxy M51 | Realme 7 Pro | |
| SIM | Dual SIM (Nano-SIM, dual stand-by) | Dual SIM (Nano-SIM, dual stand-by) |
| Bluetooth | 5.1, A2DP, LE | 5.1, A2DP, LE |
| Wifi | 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band | 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac, dual-band |
| NFC | Yes | Yes |
| GPS | Yes | Yes |
| Sensors | Accelerometer, Gyro, Proximity, Compass | Accelerometer, Gyro, Proximity, Compass |
Which is better!
So here if you look at the value for money aspect then obviously uh the Realme 7 Pro is the value for money device because it has almost everything packed in a good form factor, good cameras and great software experience and good performance.
Now Samsung Galaxy M51 is a multimedia device if you are watching a lot of movies, then the display and the bigger battery life battery capacity is really good we also like the software experience good performance and uh here also you get a great camera as well and massive battery life. So these are the aspect to consider definitely the value for money device out there would be the Realme7 Pro.
But if you want a bit more, like a massive capacity battery and a slightly better camera and also slightly better in fact display than the Samsung Galaxy M51 makes a good choice.
