      Mohsen Rakhshan, 27 Apr 2010Hi, I wanna buy a 16GB MicroSD memory, but I think that my ... moreYes this phone is certified to use micro SD HC cards upto 16GB capacities. The problem with high capacity cards is that as the cards get filled up, the file access speeds tend to become lower. This has nothing to do with the phone but the card itself.
      There are a few things that ppl overlook when they buy a card. In addition to the capacities, the sdHC cards also specifies the minimum write speed of the card as class 2, class 4, class 6.. etc.
      A class 6 card can access files 3 times faster than a class 2 card which is the one most commonly available.
      So I advice you to get a class 6 card for faster performance. It may cost a bit more and is bit hard to get but it is definitely worth the money and effort.

          Rohit, 27 Apr 2010Hi SidewindeR, Thank u very much for ur suggestion regar... moreYes mate I understand your situation very well...

          Sony MDR EX33LP n EX35 seems to fit you budget but I wont recommend it. I've had a very bad experience with sony EX monitors. it doesn't seem to sound good for my liking. But bass addicts will praise it as bass seems to be the only thing coming out from these. The sound is not at all balanced and after some time, you'll feel bored as it lacks the refinement and a lot semms to be missing from these. The monitor series are just a brand name adopted by sony to lure customers. it sounds nothing like even an entry level inear monitors.
          The hilips SHE 9500 can be considered as an entry level monitor. The audio quality is much much better than the sony's. Infact it is a good alternative to the more expensive SHH9700. The audio quality is almost the same and they also have the drivers and similar specs. So i guess you can't go wrong with Philips.
          I have no hands on experience with panasonic but the specs seem good though the high input power seem to suggest a thicker coil which would result in lower audio output.
          Creatives are comparatively cheap. The EP 630 is a very good value for mone inear but I am doubtful whether you will be able to get the EP830 within your budget. What creative lacks is poor bass and harsh treble. it feels as if someone's bangin a tin can in you ear.
          And please don't go for the SE headsets like HPM-70 and 77. they are so overhyped and isn't even comparable to the above ones in terms of audio quality. All they give you is lots of bass and nothing else. Even the bass can fell distorted or muddy at times...

But careful not to forget it as it is very difficult to recover data from an encrypted card. Even formatting would be impossible when you set up a pwd..

                Hi, I wanna buy a 16GB MicroSD memory, but I think that my phone will work slowly with 16GB memory. Is there anybody who used NOKIA 5230 with 16GB memory? How does it work? Does it work slowly?

                                I’m using Nokia 5233 for the past 3 weeks and felt that the sound quality thro’ headphones (that came with the pack) is not that good. Is there anyone facing the same experience. If I change the headphones to some other brand, will the audio output be better?
                                If yes, please suggest some stereo headphones compatible with 5233.
