not at all. The S40 does have some advantages over A200, but overall it's advantages are outweighed by it's disadvantages.

Just because I don't claim one is all bad and one is all good doesn't make it a contradiction.

@qvga, yes music quality is a little better than W910 though I consider both pretty good. The 5310 has a DSP which shows in the audio quality. I don't find the volume much better, however the external speaker is stereo and better quality and louder.

However the player ergonomics let the 5310 down - in this area the W910 wins hands down. Mind you I haven't tried kd player on the 5310, if it works well then it will bring the ergonomics exactly into line with the W910 (using kd player).

And keep in mind that even if kd player works fine on the 5310, you can't minimise java apps so using kdplayer means I can't use any other part of the 5310, which is a pretty severe limitation.

Mp3 player with internet functions? Why didnīt u get an ipod touch?

because it's bigger than what I need for this purpose, and twice as expensive. I do plan to get an ipod touch, but not to replace the 5310. The 5310 size (for it's features) is tiny.

btw, what are SOME of s40's advantage over a200?


the main menu view can be changed between list views and grid, the standby screen is slightly easier to access as well as easy on the eye (compared to the shortcut list on A200), but of course is only accessible from the standby screen. Grid icons can have names shown or not shown (user preference).

Right and left softkeys are configurable for standby mode.

Flight mode can be enabled without restarting the phone. Profiles (except flight mode) can be set to a timer, ie: after a certain amount of time the profile reverts to the previously chosen profile.

However, SE A200 overall has more advantages for example activity button, minimise music or java, shortcut list accessible from most menus, better picture viewing options, better playlist editor, better status bar displays, better clock display, better camera UI and other things.

Really A200 is far superior in my view, however if anything about s40 that SE should adopt it is the flight mode without restart option.
