Infinix Zero 8 vs Galaxy A51: If you are here it means you want to know which is the better phone between the Infinix Zero 8 and Galaxy A51. The fact that the Samsung Galaxy A51 actually cost some $37 extra is enough reason to see if its worth the extra cash.

With the hype and the Samsung brand name, its easy for you to just think that Infinix phones are inferior. Well, that is not always the case. And again, this is 2020 and it’s the year where other smartphone companies are stepping up big time.

We have seen some incredible display of innovation from other brands that top brands are yet to try out. The Infinix S5 Pro and Tecno Camon 15 Premier came with a pop-up selfie camera.

There is the Vivo V17 Pro with dual pop-up selfie camera. And now, we are having an Infinix phone with a dual selfie camera while Samsung phones are yet to implement these features.

It’s not as if these features are what makes a phone superb but these extra features do contribute to the excitement of using these cell phones. That little pop-up trigger from the selfie camera has its own feel.

Actually, this post won’t be about Infinix Phone leveling up with the Samsung Phone. It’s actually the other way around. You might be surprise but it’s true.

Phone comparisons are not always easy. This is true considering that people use phones for different reasons. But what we’ll focus on here is overall user experience and value for money. It’s good you buy a phone that is actually worth the money, right?

Just before we begin, we want you to understand that this comparison is no way meant to discredit either of the phones. It’s a comparison based on the paper specifications released by both phone companies.

With the above out of the way, let’s see if Samsung Galaxy A51 can justify why it actually cost about $37 more.

Before we move one, you can Join Us on YouTube and get, unboxing, live reviews and comparisons of phones.

We’ll now kick things off with comparing the features of these phones.

Infinix Zero 8 vs Galaxy A51

Infinix Zero 8 is produced by Infinix Mobile while the Samsung Galaxy A51 is produced by Samsung Mobile. This is the very first difference between these two phones.

The Galaxy A51 is actually Samsung’s budget premium mid-range smartphone released late 2019. If you couldn’t afford the more expensive Galaxy A71 then you buy the Galaxy A51. Infinix Zero 8 on the other hand, is the upgrade to the Zero 6 released by Infinix last year.

This comparison is going to be based strictly on the paper specifications of both phones. At the end, you’ll get to decide which is better between the Infinix Zero 8 and Galaxy A51.

Now its time for us to start the comparison proper. And we are starting from the network connectivity of both phones.

Infinix Zero 8 vs Galaxy A51: Network Connectivity

There is no 5G connectivity for both phones (although there is a 5G version of the Galaxy A51). But, the regular Galaxy A51 comes without 5G network. This is no such a big deal because at the moment very few people actually use 5G globally (if you know what we mean).

So, there is really no difference here as both phones offer same value for users here. You can make use of 4G lite which is also have a very fast internet connectivity.

Infinix Zero 8 vs Galaxy A51: Build, Design and Display

Both phones were built with same material (front glass, plastic back and plastic frame). The punch hole of the Samsung Galaxy A51 is placed at the middle while that of the Infinix Zero 8 is placed at the top left side.

The Samsung Galaxy A51 comes with a SUPER AMOLED display type with size 6.5 inch while the Infinix Zero 8 comes with an IPS LCD display type with a bigger size of 6.85 inch.

You can see the difference of both phones at first sight. Zero 8 comes with a diamond shaped rear camera set up which is very different from the squared rear camera set up of the Galaxy A51.

Another first difference you’ll notice is the bigger punch hole of the Zero 8 which houses a dual selfie camera.

The dual selfie camera and diamond shaped rear camera of the Zero 8 is something you can’t just ignore. But, the single punch hole beauty of the Galaxy A51 looks really premium.

One reason why you might want to buy the Zero 8 is that it’s display comes with 90Hz smooth refresh rate. This is a huge jump over the Samsung Galaxy A51 in the display category.

Everything about these two phones from design to its display are very different. Zero 8 has bigger screen, IPS LCD display, with bigger punch hole at the top left. Galaxy A51 on the other hand has the smaller screen, SUPER AMOLED display with a simple smaller punch hole at the middle.

Infinix Zero 8 vs Galaxy A51: Operating System and Chipset

Both phones run on the latest Android 10 Software along with their own various skin software. You’ll get everything Android 10 has to offer in both phones, so there really isn’t much difference here.

When it comes to the SOC that powers both phones, there is a huge difference here. For starters, both phones use chipsets from different companies.

Samsung Galaxy A51 uses the Samsung Exynos 9611 while the Infinix Zero 8 uses MediaTek Helio G90T. Both chipsets are very good gaming chipset from Samsung and MediaTek respectively.

According to AnTuTu score, the MediaTek Helio G90T used in the Zero 8 has a higher performing score.

Exynos chipsets have always been good but not always offer the best experience in gaming, heat management and battery optimization.

So, when you compare the Exynos 9611 used in the Galaxy A51 to the MediaTek Helio G90T used in the Infinix Zero 8, you’ll be disappointed with the Exynos 9611.

The chipset used in Galaxy A51 is good but when compared with that used in the Infinix Zero 8, its no where close to competing. Long story short, Infinix Zero 8 is the better phone here.

Infinix Zero 8 vs Galaxy A51: Internal Storage and RAM

The Galaxy A51 comes with 6GB RAM and 128GB Internal Storage while Infinix Zero 8 comes with 6/8GB RAM and 128/256GB Internal Storage. Both phones have options for external storage which is very good.

A minimum of 6GB RAM is more than you will get in most premium mid-range smartphones. Even the likes of the iPhone SE 2020 come with a lower RAM size and its still a very good phone.

Infinix Zero 8 vs Galaxy A51: Camera

Infinix Zero 8 comes with a 64MP primary camera while the Galaxy A51 comes with a lower 48MP primary camera. But there is a 12MP ultrawide, 5MP macro and 5MP depth sensor for the Galaxy A51. Which is more impressive than the 8MP ultrawide, 2MP macro and 2MP depth found in the Infinix Zero 8.

Both phones come with a quad camera set up. As stated earlier, the diamond shaped for Zero 8 and the squared shape for Galaxy A51.

Upfront, the Zero 8 comes with a 48 + 8MP dual selfie camera while the Samsung Galaxy A51 comes with a single 32MP camera. The Infinix Zero 8 can shoot 4K videos while the Galaxy A51 is good with 2k and 1080p videos.

There is also the slow mo feature which allows you to record videos in slow motion while using the Infinix Zero 8.

Samsung is known for having good cameras which we think levels the playing field here. But, the Infinix Zero 8 still comes with more camera features which makes using it more exciting.
