BlackBerry 8300 Headphone Jack
I’m sure it’s not the most exciting title but, I couldn’t not post it. The BlackBerry 8300’s headset jack is actually bigger than the standard 2.5mm headset jack on most phones, and all previous BlackBerrys. Obviously the question now is, does standard headphones plug in to the headset jack? Answer my good friends is yes, they do! Thanks to my pal Steve over at BlackBerry Cool who pointed this out. Check the gallery with all the pics of plug and play action!
‘Bout time a PDA has a normal headphone jack! The 2.5″ jacks were annoying.
Now if only Nokia would get the message and ditch the pop-port…
Could be a … MusicBerry!
That’s awesome.
But when will I be able to plug MY headphones into a Cingular branded 8300 model??
The sad part about this is that the iPhone will support a 3.5mm jack like this and I’m sure everyone will see them as “innovative”. This whole thing is just common sense; I don’t know why it’s taken the smartphone industry to figure it out.
BG,what headphones are those?
I just returned my Q (30 days grace) and will wait for the Curve. Sprint just announced they will get in July. 4GB and a stand jack. I can dump my MP3, charger and 2.5’s; my bag just got lighter.
how do i transfer music from my macbook to my curve 8300….. yes i’m a newbie. treo 680 kept farkin’ up and i went through 4 of them in two months so at&t sent me the Curve. needless to say, i’m happy as a well fed hostage.
Well All u Have to do it get a Sdcard Reader thats it and drag and drop them YupYup
I have a Bose headset (on ear) and the jack fits into my blackberry 8300 perfectly. However, I don’t get any sound from phone calls. I have to listen into long conference calls so I’m looking for a comfortable way to do it.
Any advice?
i realize it’s months later after your post on the BGR site inquiring as to what headphones are listed in the pic. They are Sony MDR-V700 headphones; a popular choice amongst dj’s.
