Thanks Astronaut. If you sent me a reply or answer to my question as to whether the A51 is a 5G phone and also what are the differences between the A51 & A51 5G UW, I have not been able to find it anywhere. But I am new to this "Community" so maybe I just don't know how to accesss your answer. Anyway, thanks for trying to help me. Have a blessed day.

The A51 5G UW has a slightly larger battery at 4500 mAh instead of the A51's 4000 mAh.

The A51 5G UW has 5G while the A51 does not. 

The A51 5G UW has a Samsung Exynos 9 Octa 9611 chipset while the A51 has a Samsung Exynos 9 Octa 980.

is there a difference in size between the A51 5G UW and the A51 5G ?
I'm looking at cases and they seem to make a distinction with the UW

But how do i know if my phone is a 5g or just a regular a51? If cases are indeed different,  i need to know before ordering a case.

I still don't know if the A51 and the A51 5G are the same size. Are they?

There is a size difference. Very slight, but a difference.  However, it is only .03" thickness difference, or .8mm.

A51 - 158.5 x 73.6 x 7.9 mm (6.24 x 2.90 x 0.31 in)

A51 5G - 158.5 x 73.6 x 8.7 mm (6.24 x 2.90 x 0.34 in)
