Christmas giveaway: Win a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact smartphone!

2 Dec 2014

Sony Xperia Z3 Compact

One lucky Siliconrepublic.com reader won’t have to rely on Santa Claus to bring him or her a new smartphone this Christmas, as we have a Sony Xperia Z3 Compact to give away!

The Xperia Z3 Compact was announced by Sony alongside its Xperia Z3 flagship in September this year. Don’t let the name deceive you, though, as being the little sister to the 5.2-inch Z3 means the Xperia Z3 Compact is no slim pickings with a 4.6-inch Triluminos display.

UPDATE, Monday 8 December 3.57pm: This competition is now closed.

As with all the best in the Sony Mobile range, the Xperia Z3 Compact is dust-proof and water-resistant, protecting the 2.5GHz quad-core processor, 16GB storage and 2GB RAM inside from any accidents.

Best of all, the Z3 Compact retains the powerful 20.7MP rear camera featured in the flagship smartphone, so you get the same photo quality from a more pocket-friendly device.

Thanks to PriceSpy.ie, you could be in with a chance to win an Xperia Z3 Compact of your own. Simply email competitions@siliconrepublic.com with the subject ‘PRICESPY’ and include your name, age and answer to this question:
