Thanks for the reply. I'm actually looking at something like SH905 or SH906i
I don't really mind the loudness, just want good, clear quality sound
Also, these phones don't support MP3 isn't it?
Personally, I won't be too keen on having J-phone if my focus is on music. Note that j-phones do not support MP3 playback (except the SO series e.g. SO905i...which I think supports MP3). Most J-phones accept WMA and AAC and I normally have my collection in MP3....converting them to suit my phone would be
The SH906i and SH906iTV has quite a good sound reproduction (I read, but not heard). They have Dolby Surround but that's not the kinda feature a musical enthusiast is keen on...those are more for movies. Which I am gonna say J-phones are geared towards TV and movies more than anything else including camera.
So...your best bet for musical performing phone would be to go for iphone. Believe me, the Sony Ericsson is nowhere near the Ipod or Iphone in the musical areas. The sound processor and D/A converter in those Ipods and Iphones are waaaay better than the SE....well....unless u want boom boom boom then SE is the way to go...If u are looking at hi fidelity, clarity, transparency and clean seperation, Ipod / Iphone is your best companion. Cool factor u say?? Iphone is doing quite well in this area. Well, I see a lot of nihonjin's (japanese) in Japan using Ipods.
For me, I am a sucker for movies and my SH906iTV should be on tonight's Japan Airlines....hopefully
