[Review] Nokia 3230

[dOm1naTOr]

Hi I bought this phone and the camera is really too gr8!!!My only complaint is poor sound quality compared to SE phones. I heard dat series 60 phones plays every sounds at 16kbps even if the source MP3 or mpeg files has higher bitrate???? It sounds true as I tried various qualities of same song nd the one with 16 kbps has max volume level compared to higher quality like 64 or 128kbps.
But on SE phones as bitrate increases volume level nd quality goes on increasing, but the files size too r increasing.
So now Ive re-encoded all of my MP3s into 16knbs @22KZ. Now that I have more than 150 songs on a 128mb RSMMC.

Have a look at the cool pics from the fhone!

3230 has mono output...watever u do ...nothing works out. For that u need a stereo output...
