I forget which site it was but someone in a review i read said the C902 call sound was muddy. I dont know myself but its just what i read. Like what the W580i is very muddy sounding muffled.

Both my w890i's were below average on quality, very tinny at higher volume. My C902 has been depatched today for £169 (thanks to ebay for the 15% discount!) so can comment on sound quality when I have it!
I can't wait for a 100% subjective comparative review

I googled and found it at mobileburn (http://www.mobileburn.com/review.jsp?Page=2&Id=4887):
"The Sony Ericsson C902i has average call quality, with voices sounding slightly muddy, yet still easy to understand. Call audio volume was plenty good enough, though the volume buttons are oddly placed at the bottom of the phone, rather than by the earpiece. "
Look at the pictures at that page. I actually think that's not a bad place for the volume buttons...

Well this all depends on the acoustic (sound) drivers that phone uses... They are controling the loudness and quality of the sound produced through the phone's speaker.

I also find that that the earspeaker in W980 is a bit muffled and soft, not loud and clear like the one on W960.

Gsmarena have great reviews, but not all phones are reviewed.

From what I understand, they measure the loudness of the external speaker when ringing or using it as a speakerphone. So that's only half the story.. ;-(

Right then, C902 arrived today and compared to my previous w890i the volume is not as loud (the w890i seemed to go stupidly loud!) but the quality is much better, no crackles and seems very clear.

Thanks for that info! So are you saying that even if your C902 is less loud, it makes it easier to understand the other caller because it's clearer? I wouldn't want 'better' but 'not loud enough'...
