3.5mm to 2.5mm jack for Nokia phone

Hello,
I have a Nokia 3110 classic. Its headset has been long lost. I used to have a couple of music players. One of those which had a rechargeable battery no longer gets charged and the other one runs on AAA size cells which run out pretty fast. Its also got some problems with its keys.

So I have some podcasts I want to listen to. Sure I can sit in front of the computer and do it, but running an HD4870 for listening to podcasts is not exactly economic!

So I want to connect my “normal” headsets with 3.5mm jack to the 2.5mm slot in my phone. I found a couple of them on ebay, the cheapest costing Rs.45 + Rs. 30 s/h = Total of Rs. 75.

Is it really worth Rs. 75 ? I mean, like its just a small piece of plastic with some metal inside it. Ok, I know that an iPod would also match that description :slight_smile: . But in this case, its only a plastic casing with some 3 conductors inside right?

Would it cost less if bought locally?

yeah…just subtract the shipping costs..

The product at the link you have posted may not work and you may get audio in only 1 side. The Nokia 3110 2.5 jack looks different.

Better buy locally after checking with your phone.

Can someone recommend good earphones for my Nokia E66? I have a audio 2.5mm to 3.5mm audio connector and use samsung earphones.The quality is nice but the call quality sucks.I am thinking of Nokia EH-701.It has forward/backward, Play/pause and call switch.but it’s 3.5mm.

Is this combination good?
