I am going to buy a mobile next month, my budget is below 8000.

my main requirement is:
1. sound quality should be awesome.
2. Mp3 player and FM needed.
3. 2MP camera (though it is less important)
4. display size 2" (240 x 320) required.
5. network support should be good.

w580i is good bt battery backup is poor.... whereas nokia's 5320 & 5220 sound quality is not as good.... as sony.

how about G502? how abt it's sound quality?

for my choice symbian os surely be a very good option bt is it available in this budget?

i wud recommend 5320xm ... but its @ 10k ... w580 is decent .... around 9k ...

within ur budget , u can get 5310 and 5220 ... both good fones ... additionally , there is 5130 @ arnd 6k ... u can get the g502 but u will have to invest in expensive earphones ...

5220 / 5320 + EP630 (nokia earbuds sucks)

w580i is NOT BETTER than 5320 (though SE's in-box earphone are great) , just that you'll need good pair of earphone.
also 5320 have very good video capability.

nokia 5320 + ep 630 is beyond my budget. so thinking abt w580 or G502(preferably G502), but what i found from many user reviews is w580 battery backup is poor.

i just want to sure that sound quality of G502 is excellent !

then get a get a connector
i mean buy cheap Sony ericsson earphones like hpm -70 (Chinese fakes) which will probably cost not more than 150 rs and connect ur ep 630 to the connector simple !
