Hello,
There is one major criterium that will help me with the decision of whether or not to buy the Z10: I use Westone UM2 earphones which are In Ear Monitors and while they are still in the lower quality and lower price segment they already demand an almost flawless input source. The only phone that has an excellent audio quality is the iPhone, starting with the iPhone 4. Obviously I do not own or want to own an iPhone.
There have been a few comments about sound quality but I suspect that this was always tested with cheap earphones with which only the background noise can be tested. So please test the Z10 with good IEMs and write a short comment about overall quality and the background noise. I know that not many Z10 users will have good IEMs and maybe 1 of 10 of those users will see this thread but two or three reviews will be enough.
Thank you,
