As we alluded to in our review of the device, the Nokia Lumia 520 is an extremely good device for the low price they"re available for. For just $150 (in the United States) you get a solidly built design, decent display, very good performance for the price and all the benefits of Nokia"s exclusive Windows Phone apps and services. It"s probably the best value for money smartphone you can get right now.
Thanks to the wonderful guys over at MobiCity.com.au, who have provided numerous phones for our reviews here at Neowin, we"ve got a Lumia 520 to give away to one of our lucky readers! It"s a yellow model, brand new and sealed in the box with 3G HSPA+ on the 900/2100 bands.
This giveaway is a little bit different to the giveaways we"ve run previously on Neowin: We"re using a PunchTab widget below which allows you to gain extra entries to this competition through a range of methods, for example if you follow Neowin on Twitter you"ll get an extra entry to our giveaway.
This Lumia 520 giveaway is open to anyone worldwide, and will end on June 10, 2013, at noon GMT. After the giveaway has ended we"ll randomly draw one winner and then contact them either via email or Facebook (depending on their method of entry), and they"ll have 24 hours to respond before we draw another winner. As always check out our giveaway terms and conditions for more info, and the widget below will guide you through ways to gain extra entries.
The giveaway widget will load below, although it may take a few seconds to appear.
Here are a few other things to note about our giveaway here:
- By entering via email address you agree to receive MobiCity"s weekly newsletter, although you are welcome to unsubscribe later
- This giveaway does not require you to be a Neowin member, although by providing your username you will be granted one (1) extra entry
- Commenting does not give you an extra entry; it"s completely optional for this giveaway
- You can gain several extra entries by following/liking various Neowin and MobiCity pages. If you have already liked or followed these accounts, you may need to unlike/unfollow and re-like/re-follow to get the entry.
- There are a maximum of nine ways you can enter, each giving you one (1) entry: you get an entry initially through either email or Facebook, and there are eight extra ways to enter.
- If you refer people through the links you share on Facebook and Twitter you will gain extra entries.
Good luck to everyone!
Update: The giveaway is over, and Peter Chaplin has come away with the Lumia 520. Check your email Peter (and perhaps your spam box too) for instructions on how to claim your free Windows Phone!
Update 2: Peter didn"t get back to me within the 24 hour time period required, so we re-drew a winner, and Jean-Paul Phan is the new owner of a Lumia 520. Check your email/spam folder and get back to me to claim the phone!
