It’s a common sight to see people walk around with music pumping into their ears. While everybody seems to be enjoying it, the need to carry an additional device just for music may be cumbersome. This is where the music phone comes in and over the years has become immensely popular.
A mobile phone is something that you always have on you wherever you go, so what better device than a mobile phone to play all your music!Older music phones were very rudimentary, supporting only popular formats like MP3 and WMA.
They came with basic software for playing music and unimpressive sound quality that came nowhere close to dedicated music players. But times have changed and music phones have gone through several changes to the point where now they threaten the very existence of dedicated music players.
However, in all this the layman may get confused when he has to choose a music phone that would best suit him.The W200i has been on the scene for quite some time now and has created a good reputation for itself as an affordable music phone. It is part of the Walkman range from Sony Ericsson and has the Walkman player built-in, along with support for formats such as MP3, AAC, eAAC and Sony’s Mega Bass sound preset for powerful bass.It also comes with a pair of good quality headphones, which have a 3.5mm headphone jack, so you can swap them with your own.
A 128 MB Memory Stick Micro card is supplied with the phone and you can replace it with another one up to 2 GB to save even more music. The W200i has a very good sound quality and performs well as a music phone. Write emails, browse the Web - and do it to the sound of your music. Just keep your Walkman player or FM Radio tuned in and turned on.Snap pictures with the VGA camera. Enjoy them on the ultra-bright colour screen - or share them with friends via MMS or email.
