    this phone really is great. Hands down.
    I've spent a lot of goodies just to make the most out of my 5700.
    As of late, I've purchased Shure's SE420. And by listening to music through these earphones, my 5700 became a true blue music powerhouse. I'm using a 4GB microSD, (i wish the 8GB Card is available here) and my songs are at 192kbps. Sound quality is life-like. Like no other phone can offer.
    5700 tops the list. Walkman? Nah, it's yesterday's news. No contest.

      I simply want to say that, there is no need to treat this phone as a Music centered device it is a All rounder,

      Great processor, multi tasking capable nice Symbian OS, Smartphone features, a really nice screen, remote & at last capable of playing clear music which is not the case with many loud music phones. I own a philips & IBall headset & belive me it sounds good.

      And at last phone with so many features in such a economic rate. Its indeed a great deal.

      Even you feel tempted & often come here to distract people but reality is reality it may not be as good as SE walkman(taking ur words) phones in music department but its a best package and can simply be called as JHAKAS.

        @ Dani:
        "Walkman earphones are the Best at that :)"

        I know you'e not arguing, its just I think you used only some SEs and Nokias, whereas I used lots of phones, wether these 2 aboe, or Motorola, Samsung or LG.....I also thought that SE was best in sound and camera, but I realised that, as you now, I was living in a dream world....SE are no more the boss, even in the sound section...accept the fact, and please no more praising of SE here in our 5700 thread, go do this in your SE section...

        PS: I have 2 headsets and 3 pairs of earphones, one Sony, one Samsung, and one Philips, only for my 5700....and I'm not counting the AD-44 which I got along with the phone.....don't you think I listen through earphones???.....

            to meh. I think ur phone need to be flashed ! Or it needs a latest firmware update to v4.21. And by the way this phone don t use ribbons in d rotating part. It uses hardcore durable metal wires instead. The only ting though is to ensure that dust don t get below the joystick because it affects the switch that switches between camera mode , music mode and video call mode. And the joystick is very durable and it is a very small d pad. I own this fone 4 7 months and i have investigated its internal parts.

              @shadowed_angst

              True, thats just your opinion, i had the choice between Nokia 5300 and SE W850i
              i chose W850i becuase i wanted a change from owning Nokia's i had 6233 at the time i still have it but dont use it for Music, becuase of the Battery life which is my Main concern for Nokia Music Phones

              i just Hope Nokia improve on that

                @Vip_Blast
                who the hell buys a Music Phone to listen to Music in the LoudSpeakers ?

                Yes i have heard a 5700 its Loud il admit. but surely the whole point of a Music Phone is the EARPHONES it comes with !

                Walkman earphones are the Best at that :)

                no need to Argue..im just saying

                    @Vicky:
                    We have written a lot about the covers. They are exchangeable but for that you need some practice or to take your phone to a Care center. If you want to do it yourself go to this 5700 thread:
                    http://www.gsmarena.com/forum/....php?t=19772
                    there is a demostration about how to change the cover.

                    Only you need to sign in and there you can post every doubt about your 5700 (just like here), but there you´ll have the advantage to find people talking only about this phone and not fans of other models or companies that are bashing this wonderful mobile.

                    The speakers are awesome, crystal clear sound and are much better than many phones not because their loudnees and clear sound.

                            Not again dear :-)

                            @Takuji
                            Have you upgraded your phone's firmware, do you found the music bed comparatively with older version 3.83.

                            @James

                            You'll simply have to change the date of your phone some months back, install the app & reset it.

                              I second that, vip_blast.

                              Dani, don't be like that. I know you're expressing your opinion, but I think it's a bit overboard already.

                              I spent time deciding which phone to buy: Nokia 5700 or SE W610. Considering every strength and weakness of each, the 5700 was the winner for me. I still liked 5700 more after having been able to use W610 for weeks. But you won't see any post from me bashing SE at any SE page within this site 'coz I also like the company and most importantly, it is my way of showing respect to SE people.

                                I admit SE has good sound quality....but some samsung and Motorolas have even better sound quality.....still, Nokia is the global market leader......and please, when we are discussing about a specific Nokia phone here, don't post things like SE's sound quality is better, it spoils the mood.....and btw, have you ever heard 5700's speaker sound?......
