I amaze about sound quality test result of this affordable phone. Is there sound enhancement on music player like Megabass on SE walkman? I usually listen to hip hop music and powerful bass sound is important to me. Thanks

affordable?? certainly not. SE, Samsung or Motorola has same features but cost less than this ugly piece.

1. handsets are too expensive featurewise
2. no 3.5 mm jack in walkman phones
3. very expensive m2 cards cannot match the ultra affordable microSD cards

The worse news is that SE is not interested in what the customers want, preferring to push the customer into liking their very expensive phones. That is not the world works, and now SE is paying for its lack of foresight and adaptation to consumer desires.

Even the 8MP cameras on phones will not do well against 5MP digital camera. In camera the focal lenght is more and it has a larger and better lens of harnessing more light. Also better shutter speed and a lot more functions.

1) I can play music and play games at the same the time...

2) Music turns off automatically if the camera is turned on

3) Music turns off automatically while attending a call(that happens in all sets)but, it can play amr format music files while we are talking on phone(even though its not the best quality format it will help if your talk for long time)

4) Music can play in background while accessing any other program except camera.

5) Messages can be sent with music playing, music doesn't stop while send or receiving messages.

No wonder Nokia's profits are down 90%.

Who'd buy this ugly whack.
