Statefinder diagnostic is a convenient method that can differentiate between the various dark energy models. In this article, we analyze the statefinder parameters in symmetric teleparallel cosmology. The $f(Q)$ gravity theory is an alternative theory to GR, where gravitational interactions attribute to the non-metricity scalar $Q$. In the present work, we consider two $f(Q)$ models which contains a linear and a non-linear form of non-metricity scalar, specifically, $f(Q)=αQ + \fracβ{Q}$ and $f(Q)=αQ + βQ^2$, where $α$ and $β$ are free parameters and then statefinder parameters $(r,s)$ are evaluated. We plot the trajectory of our models in the $r-s$ plane. In addition, we analyze the physical behavior of different cosmological parameters such as density, deceleration, and the EoS parameters. Further, we use Om diagnostic to differentiate the behavior of both $f(Q)$ models. We found that both $f(Q)$ models predicts that the present universe is accelerating due to the dark energy component evolving due to non-metricity. Moreover, model I represents phantom type behavior while model II follows quintessence scenario.
