Mobile phone with as good sound quality as the Sansa Clip?

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
The question says it all. I don't have much requirement for a mobile phone. I use it to make calls. I don't have require extra features of my MP3 player besides balanced, natural and high quality sound. But it's nice if I have to carry only one gadget at a time instead of two.

Oh, it's interesting that with home audio the common wisdom says that separate components usually sound better better in separate boxes. But what's the situation with such integrated microelectronics? The Clip is strictly a player, for sure, but how about more complex players, so called portable media players with color screen and video or even phones? Let's say a phone in airplane mode. No one should bother me while listening to my stuff!

It can be either a cheap or an expensive phone. But let us discuss this question from the sound quality perspective first.

I use the blackberry bold 9000 as my portable music player, and find it's sound quality quite good. There's not alot of info on it... but most people say the bold's sq is equal to iphone. Unfortunately I don't know how you can get true line out from it or make a usb lod to connect it to a portable amp. It supports .wav music too.

EDIT: Also, you can turn off the phone function to eliminate the interferance GSM signals cause, although it never disturbs my listening sessions.

Thanks for the input. Well... how does the Sansa Clip sounds compared to the iPhone then? Both two are very popular models and couldn't find a sound comparison of them here. I like undistorted, pure sounds.
