Don't go for W300i. It has mono speakers and it's screen is too small and display not so good. I guess MotoRazr V3 or L7 does fit in your budget.
Also, you forgot to mention what features do you want.

You can check out specification on W300i here *www.gsmarena.com/sony_ericsson_w300-1486.php.
It is a good phone for it's price if you can do with the following -ve points

  • Average screen display

  • VGA Camera

  • Mono Speakers AFAIK
Read more on it here *www.mobile-review.com/review/sonyericsson-w300-z530-en.shtml. Will help you decide what you feel about the phone.

hi,
The sites gave me information, i was not aware before. i liked the phones because they look very nice only.w300 for extra features compared to z530i i.e.,256mb card,mega bass,fm only. by the way i feel the look of z550i is not so good to me.what would suggest me, i am fully confused as i want good audio output for sure,acceptable camera.

Thank You,

Any Walkman brnd phn should give u gr8 sound and ships with fabulous headphones..
Hence, even W300i will be shipping with them. Its a good phn and very sturdy as well. Yeah the display is small and on phn speaker could be mono...
Why dont u listen to the speakers in Sony world showroom and then decide

I am favouring this phn bcos it comes in ur budget and has all the features...

If u can increase ur budget thn nothin like k750i
