Does the Nokia 130 Music (2025) work on Eir?

It works, with caveats.

Works with caveats

Calls and texts work over 2G, but this is a 2G-only phone with no mobile data. No 2G switch-off date has been announced.

Fine for now. The catch is how calls get through: if they ride on 2G or 3G, they stop when Eir switches that off.

We worked this out from the phone's published bands and Eir's own published network facts (see How we check). Nobody has confirmed it for this exact pairing yet.

Eir (Ireland)

  • 3G: Being switched off now: phased from 1 October 2026 (Donegal first) to 6 November 2026
  • 2G: On; no Irish operator has announced a 2G switch-off

Nokia 130 Music (2025)

  • 2G: GSM 900 / 1800
  • 3G: No 3G
  • 4G bands: None (2G-only phone)
  • 4G Calling: no – 2G-only, so no 4G Calling.

The same applies to networks that run on Eir: GoMo, Lyca Mobile. Smaller networks sometimes handle 4G Calling differently, so check with them too.
