Big thanks to our model for the pictures of our contest prizes

Hi! If you haven’t heard, we recently had a contest that we coincided with our review of the HTC 7 Mozart for some HTC Goodies and extra prizes. Our deadline for entries was on May 12, and we’ve finally tallied all the entries, reviewed them, and ran them through our raffle and contest process. Well, now we’re ready to announce our winners. Check them out after the break!

In our contest, we came up with four prizes, and four ways to win these said prizes. Our number one prize goes to the best comment about the phone after reading the review. This one is judged subjectively and we certainly had trouble picking the right winner. Eventually, it came down to two entries:

Marc Apollo Acosta – For this phone, my interest leans more on the OS part, particulary the UI. Based on your review it was good to know that Windows Phone 7 came out to be a decent OS, having a great potential even with the dominance of Android and iOS. Looking at the screenshots, I really like how the UI was presented. There’s a certain cool factor. It’s simple and elegant, and didn’t try to look like the more popular OS out there. So I guess if you want to be different from the rest, HTC 7 Mozart, with its WP7 and a good hardware to back it up, is a perfect choice.

Justin Sorongon – What I don’t like about the Mozart – battery life. For some reason I thought that battery life would be decent considering it’s not as big as those 4 inch monsters like the Desire HD and Galaxy S. Probably all the eye candy takes a toll on the phone’s processor?

What I like about it – it’s a dead-easy phone to use. It’s simple and straightforward – you wouldn’t have a hard time figuring things out on your own when you use the phone. It’s great for people like me who want a capable phone for calling, texting, light browsing and gaming but don’t want to go through the hassle of various customizations to make the phone run buttery smooth.

Well, we had to pick one, and we picked Mr. Justin Sorongon’s entry for its more complete view of the HTC 7 Mozart. Congratulations! You’ve won the Windows Phone 7 jacket and extra goodies.

Here’s a list of what you’ll find in your prize:

• HTC Bag
