I am currently using n91 8GB edition. I love the music quality. It really kicks off all walkmans to date. I love the 3.5 jack too. But cant bear the weight anymore. Is it ok to get w950? or what phone should i get now?

if 4 gb emeory fit your needs, why not to take w810? its small, handy and accoprding the fact, that summer is closing ( less clothes ), it would perfectly fit your need imo. but if u are a symbian fan, w950 would fit your needs, but it isnt "that" small either imo.

if you like music, go for a w950. it's light, stylish, thin and that big screen is just beautiful. and i just love the music player w950 has.
or you could wait for the p700 2-3 months which has 3,2 mp cam, 128mb ram, wifi....

from SE w880 is also worthy of consideration as its smaller and lighter than w950 and you can get 2gb M2 memory cards cheap now and 4gb is going to be available very soon and the walkman player is very similar to the one in w950. you also get a camera too, of course

@reham - If you have some money to spend . . . better wait for the W950's successor . . . [addsig]

Been using the W950 for a while now. Other than the absence of a cam, the phone handling works like a charm to me. It is small and touch screen able. I have used it on numerous times with only one hand, and my thumb can reach important icons on the touch screen and press them in conjunction with the number keypads below. Highly recommended.

I looked into the W950 once, but having no camera put me off, I got a P990 instead but it isnt that impressive, honestly the W810 is pretty good, and the fact that the K750/w800/w810 are really customizable is really cool, I have modded it with toshura's acoustics, and now the quality is pretty good, I would reccomend the W810 if you arent keen on spending that much

@QVGA

Whilst that may be your opinion i for one defiantly disagree as recently i tested both W950 and a W880 neither offered any where near enough volume and actually the sound was none too impressive either. Not just my opinion either look here on this Forum at just how many are lees than happy with their W950's and these are SE's own fans.

If you were in the UK i would meet up and show you that even the Music player in the E61 is better the only thing it doesn't have is Album art which IMO is a waste of time and space as i listen to Music not watch the album cover. The E61 and my N93 before it both have equalisers that you can change the settings on and even create your own. The volume is more than loud enough @ only 40-50% and the sound separation and quality using a Nokia 3.5mm adapter and either Sony MDR-EX71SL or Shure EC2 is truly great IMHO. If the W950 or W880 were better i would of bought one especially as i fancied 4gb of storage instead i bought another 2gb card at less than £20.

consider yourself proven wrong
no, seriously: how do you prove it, how can anyone disprove it...the statement only makes sense if you lead up to it with "For me..."... Or "whatever anybody says, I think..."
QVGA, the pixies are the most imprtant band of the last 20 years...prove me wrong! mila jovovich is the most gorgeous mildly talented actress around - prove me wrong! My ears are better for listening to music than yours, prove me wrong...
And the dark side of the moon really is prettier...
Good night! [addsig]

N91= More 4Gb than W950. 2Mp camara. More stable OS.
W950= Less weight but still a very large phone. Touch Screen.

As far as i know music quality is pretty much the same so i think you should save your money and wait for a new model that fit your needs. Go for a w950 when you have a n91 its only a downgrade of features, and the sizes diferences are not too much to justify that... just weight...
