Hi all!!

Am planning to buy Motorola W270. I have surfed through its specs and it is as follows.

Plus:
Expandable Memory(up to 2GB)
Music Player
Stereo FM
Low Cost
Flip Phone

Minus:
Small Screen ( 128x128 )

My only decision factor now is the audio quality of its music player and earphone quality.
Please rate the audio/earphone quality in a scale of 1 to 5 (5 being best & 1 being worst) for the below ranges..

Bass: ???
Treble: ???
Mid-Range: ???

Feel free to add your comments on the phone.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply..
Do you mean to say that its audio quality is not so good??
Looks like it is very poor in performance..
I didnt expect it to be like Sony's W series music, but atleast is it not even an average performer??

^^nope. If you are used to listening songs on mp3 player or cd player or good set of speakers, then you will feel that the audio quality is below average.

anything better for music and in same range means no option than W200, a little more you get Z550 or W300 nokia 5200 or 5300, but then again you cannot compare these nokia ones to sony.
