 "Android KitKat contest goes live in India, winners get Nexus 7 tablets")
Those complaining about the Android KitKat contest limited to the US and some other countries can now rejoice. The Android KitKat is live in India and we can confirm that the special contest packs have reached stores. Google is giving away a Nexus 7 tablet every hour to winners and there are a total of 1000 tablets to be won. The contest runs till November 15, 2013.
The contest is limited to the dark and regular varieties of the candy bar. Thanks to the green Android robot on the pack, they are easily recognisable.
The special KitKat packs are widely available now
The contest requires one to buy specific KitKat packages printed with the Android mascot. Each pack contains a special eight digit code which you have to SMS on 9880298802. Users will have to text – SMS KITKAT <8 digit code>. You can also check the KitKat Android page. Unlike US, there is no option to directly key in the code on the company’s website, and one will have to send an SMS. Upon sending the message, we were told that we would be contacted soon.
It was earlier this month that Google took everyone by surprise by announcing its latest Android 4.4 KitKat (earlier called Key Lime Pie) version earlier this month. To kick off the new partnership between the chocolate makers and Google, the new contest was announced. It is likely to be launched next month, alongside the Nexus 5. The new Android KitKat version will reportedly also support older phones, bring fragmentation changes i.e. screen resizing, Miracast updates, new APIs regarding animations, a new Gallery visualisation and new notification widgets.
