Sony Ericsson MPS-70 portable speakers review

It's worth noting, however, that the plug is only compatible with Walkman-branded phones--so if you have another Sony Ericsson music phone, you're out of luck. Also, because the plug connects to the phone's charger port, you can't listen to music and charge your phone at the same time.

Setting up the speakers is exceptionally easy; just plug them into the phone and you're good to go. Your handset is the power source, but the speakers won't drain your battery significantly. When paired with our Sony Ericsson W580i, the speakers delivered surprisingly good sound quality--just like the phone itself. Volume was much higher than with the MPS-60 speakers, which is a welcome change. Though they deliver a satisfying experience, keep in mind that the MPS-70 speakers are not designed to replace your home stereo, and they're also short on audio editing features. A speaker-mounted volume button would be nice, but we're not going to complain too much. Simplicity is really the whole point of the MPS-70 speaker set.
