Nokia 311o classic sounds very good through earphone

3110(4500rs 512 Mb card included) + 2.5 to 3.5 MM jack ( 20 rs ) + EP630 (650rs)

4500 + 20 + 650 = 5170rs

my friend using it it is awesome

i use nokia 3110 classic + ep 630 via converter; sound quality is avg only. but for ur budget it's the best choice, unless you consider sony w200, which sounds way better thro earphones!

sony W200 build I cannot say is that good, I bought K550 and my frn bought W200(I really never liked hough because of its navigation key), he is unsatisfied with the reception of the phone.

Besides I think 3110 classic has been already replaced by 3110 Evolve, this is better than 3110 Classic.
Besides if you got little more get Nokia 3500 its much better than 3110.

And if you really think of extending budget upto 6K you got alot more choices.

HI Friends,

From your opinions I think Nokia 3110c has more features than w200i.
But still I'm having confusion regarding the sound quality (music playbak) of 3110.
what about its performance with EP630 earphone ?..
