Both new Galaxy A-series phones come with an Infinity-O Display (the company speak for the hole-punch display design) and feature a quad rear camera setup. The Galaxy A51 comes as the successor to the Galaxy A50, whereas the Galaxy A71 is the descendant of the Galaxy A71.

To announce the official launch of the Samsung Galaxy A51, Samsung India Twitter account posted a 10-second video on Monday. The teaser video mentions that the Galaxy A51 launch is just two days away. However, the link provided in the teaser contains a URL extension that reads “galaxy-a5171,” suggesting the launch of both the Galaxy A51 and Galaxy A71. However, Samsung India has confirmed to Gadgets 360 that it plans to launch just the Galaxy A51 on January 29.
