I think it would all depend on what's important to you. Music? Sound quality? Speakerphone? Usability? Button placement? UI? Size? Bundled headphones? Bang-for-buck?
Who knows, especially since the new ones are not yet released. I quite like the W302 (same as S302) simply because I like the design of the buttons. Its edges are blockier (less rounded) than my current phone though, which makes it a bit less comfortable in the hand and especially the pocket.
I also don't like blingy shiny buttons, especially if they are plastic silver-coated which wear away with use. But as for technical performance, UI responsiveness/ stability, camera performance, value-for-money, etc...I doubt anyone can answer unless the phones are released and reviewed in detail and have been on the market for at least a short time.

This time he's right. The W980 and the W902 have the best audio quality on the cell phone market (it's been tested).
As for which walkman I think it's the best - well, that would be the W980 until the W902 is released solely because of the sound quality.

the phones are not even released so how can anyone even test this? without a DSP how can these phones match phones with a DSP? W980 runs the exact same audio platform(if there is a SE audio platform) as the current SE phones.
the 'clear audio and deep bass' BS is basically what the HPM-77 will deliver.

That's BS.
Have a look at this video:
http://www.sonyericsson.com/reveals/July/video_clear_audio.asp
And here's a quote from the /reveals site:
"This phone (the W902) allows you to boost the base, tweak the treble and choose the music type with the equalizers - features that have been designed to give you a perfectly Clear audio experience.
This is the same superior sound quality as the newly launched W980 Walkman™
which was rated "best audio experience" this month, in a trial conducted in Germany by TESTfactory."

Tweak the treble? Feck me! Thats unbelievable. No other phone offers that. Wow SE, bravo bravo.

Excuse my ignorance (I don't use phones as Walkmans... YET), but isn't a dedicated DSP only good if you are using the EQ? Isn't the most important thing for sound the:
1) DAC and associated audio circuitry of the phone (amp, signal paths being free from interference, etc)
...in the overall sonic picture, assuming you never make use of EQ?
I couldn't care less about EQ, but I do care about good sound designed from the start without even touching EQ.
Sony has traditionally equipped its Walkmans with puny 5mW + 5mW (into 16ohm) amps that can sound OK with earbuds but are really not loud enough when you connect some full-size headphones with higher impedance. Do they do this on their Walkman phones?
I'm assuming the original poster wants the best sound quality from a Walkman phone and doesn't care about the rest?
Anyone tried full-size headphones on their Walkmans (like the Sennheiser HD595 or similar) that can comment on volume levels? Just curious...and I hope I haven't hijacked this thread too much.
