The only thing better than a smartphone is a free smartphone, and HTC wants to give you just that with its Free Fone Fridays Sweepstakes.

In this year's promo, participants have a chance to win free smartphones from HTC America based in Seattle. The prizes include HTC smartphones that range from last year's One M9 to the phone maker's current flagship, the HTC 10.

The Catch?

Relax! There's really no catch to this. No purchases or payment of any form is required. All legal United States residents who are 18 years old and up are eligible to join.

However, employees of HTC, subsidiary and parent companies included, are prohibited from entering. An employee's immediate family, which includes their spouses, children, parents and siblings, are also barred from joining the sweepstakes.

"Non-natural persons (including corporations and other business entities) are not eligible to participate in the Sweepstakes," states section 1 of the official rules.

The Free Fone Fridays Sweepstakes started on Nov. 4 and will last until Dec. 30. During that time, there will be eight entry periods. We've laid it all out in the table below. We've even included the giveaways for each specific entry period.

How To Join The Free Fone Fridays Sweepstakes

Sign up on HTC's designated registration page for the Free Fone Fridays Sweepstakes.

According to company guidelines, only one entry is permitted per person during each entry period. This means that if you want to join the next sweepstakes, you would have to fill out the designated page and submit your details again.

The drawing period will be the Monday that follows the entry period. Each person is limited to one prize, which means that winners of previous sweepstakes are no longer eligible for the next. Potential winners will be contacted via email and are required to respond within one day.

“Prizes will be fulfilled after winner confirmation by emailing winner to redeem the prize by following the included instructions,” says HTC.
