Headsets for my 6600

3 replies · 2,078 views · Started 01 February 2005

What dual headsets/handsfrees are available for 6600? Any reviews and sites where to buy are appreciated. I live in Sweden but anywhere within the european union is ok.
How good is the "Genuine Nokia Stereo Hands Free Kit HDD-1"?
What do you guys use?

Thanks

Hey man, well it depends what you plan on using the headset for. If you plan on using it to listen to your mp3's then remember that the Nokia 6600 only supports MONO, so u will not be pleased with the sound.

Im not sure if the HDD-1 fit on the 6600, my frien has some for her 6620, i dont know if its the one u are talking about, but they have a different plug that wont fit on 6600.

If you actually want a headset to have phone conversations, i recommend a BLUETOOTH headset. I have a Motorola HS810, not sure what they call it where u live. If Bluetooth is too expensive, try a Boom (i think thats what its called) headset, they look pretty cool and pretty cheap, ive never tried them.
Hope i made sense....

Yes, I know the 6600 doesnt have stereo :frown: . And yes I was intending to use it to listen to mp3s/oggs.
I believe the Nokia Stereo Hands Free Kit HDD-1 should fit, this according to nokia homepage and the link.

Are these two adapters for a standard 3.5mm plug?
Skullcandy Link Jacked - Nokia 2.5mm
Hands Free Base Adapter - Nokia 2.5mm Phones

Any reviews on these? Or are there any other to buy?

I know the 6600 isnt a mp3 player and I cant expect very good sound quality but if I buy a handfree/headset I dont want to make a mistake by buying a crappy one 😉

I just noticed that the Hands Free Base Adapter is an adapter for a 2.5mm universal handsfree, so what is a "universal handsfree" then?
