Our Biggest Promo Yet! Nokia: My Life – win a C3!

* COMMENTS CLOSED *
Comments for week 1 are now closed. We will be posting the post/mechanics for Week 2 shortly. You may place your comments there. For the latest tally, please check the ManilaReviews Forum.

We are celebrating our 5th Year Anniversary with a bang! The Manila Blogs Family would like to thank all of our readers and loyal followers who have been with us for the past 5 years by giving away FREE NOKIA phones.

We started out with Manila Reviews last January 2005, and over the years, we have developed blogs to address the needs and concerns of our readers. Just so you know, the Manila Blogs Family is composed of a family of bloggers with different personalities and interests. This paved the way for creating 5 unique blogs that we hope you all love: Manila Reviews (for the Pinoy foodie and food entrepreneur), Manila Mommy (for the loving “mommy”), Manila Fitness (for the active and health conscious “gym/yoga rat”), Manila Shopaholic (for the “kikay” and trendy shopaholic) and Manila Blogs (for the noob or aspiring blogger).

On this special occasion, Nokia Philippines ties up with Manila Blogs Family to give you FREE Nokia phones that would suit your personality.

For the Blogger -- Manila Blogs is giving you the Nokia C3

Nokia C3

Nokia C3

The Nokia C3 is PERFECT for bloggers and social media mavens who are perpetually wired. The full QWERTY keyboard makes typing what you have to say a breeze. Nokia Messaging also gives 1-click access to e-mail, chat, and social networking platforms. Updating your status and uploading photos has never been easier as this phone is specially designed with that functionality. Aside from that, it also has WIFI which will drastically keep your data costs down.

  8. Happy Five Years Manila Blogs!

    “How does this Nokia phone fit your lifestyle?”

    I think it’s high time I use a QWERTY phone even if I have resisted getting one for the longest time. I’m forever online via WiFi at home and GPRS while on the move. And since I’m planning to blog “full blast”, a QWERTY phone like the Nokia C3 will make my blogging life easier.
