Phone Charger compatibility

[EamonX1]

I had a Nokia 3210. Now I have a Nokia 6300. The Battery charger for the 6300 is lighter with smaller jackplug for smaller socket. I use my phone in two locations. Can I get an adapter for the Nokia 6300 so that the battery charger for the Nokia 3210 can charge it?

Yes, there are many adapters available, from straight conversion adapters, to angled adapters/resizers...

Just ordered myself one.

Check the rating of your old Nokia chargers though, as they have different ratings (Cheers hairilabubakar!)

I have found that on some cheap ebay ones, the pin isnt as long as on genuine.
Making it hard to keep it in the phone if you have the Nokia Leather/Plastic case on your phone.

Yeah, there are all kinds of build quality with these things. I've got the CA-44- but OEM and a counterfeit item from an online retailer. The Nokia unit works great, but the ping on the counterfeit item is too long. I'd like to recommend the Nokia OEM product over one of these other items, but when you can get a knock-off for under 3 dollars, and the real thing costs over 20 dollars... you know?

I have one USB charger thats pin is longer than a genuine one but it still charges pretty well.

Me too, it came with a nokia bluetooth ear piece. Charges the phone fine, but the length of the stem is somewhat longer.
