Probably pretty awful. They go out of their way to say MP3 everywhere. Only 8MB RAM, so more reason think no lossless decoding. No mention of the DAC, so probably not a high quality one.

Looks good but if you are looking for a basic phone, with good FM radio reception, MP3 player and a powerful speaker and long lasting battery the Nokia X1-01 is the one to get.

At least you get RDS, but quite short talk time compared to X1-01.
