Buy a Nokia Lumia 920 in Vietnam. Get a free rice cooker? Deal.
We’ve seen some fairly fantastic offerings paired up when purchasing a Windows Phone lately, whether it’s a free charging pad, discounted phones or a Windows 8 Pro upgrade.
And it makes sense to see regional variations of such deals, such as in Vietnam where you can get a free wireless Microsoft mouse and a rice cooker.
Yes, for USD $695 (13,900,000 Dong) you can buy the Nokia Lumia 920 in white and get a free Philips rice cooker—because it just makes sense: white phone, white rice. Right?
Personally, we're on the lookout for a deep frier deal in the South. Have an interesting regional offering for a Windows Phone? Let us know.

As long it has a wireless charging pad build in I wouldn't mind.. ^^
Daniel Rubino says:
+1 Can't believe I missed using that joke. Next time!
Tsyokiss says:
I thought it was a quite obvious one considering the info related in the article.. :-P Would be nice if it had NFC inbedded aswell, tab the phone to start the cooker and get info on your phone when the rice is done ect.. ^^
mmoses1978 says:
Rice is a deal there so that might be a good deal for them.
diplomat696 says:
Does the rice cooker have bluetooth/nfc enabled sharing?
Quin 2013 says:
Lol
Targus says:
A Japanese company did demonstrate a high-tech rice cooker which can be controlled by a smartphone app via NFC. But it's pretty overkill because even kids know how to cook steam rice from scratch in east Asia.

Dooood! I would love a free rice cooker. I love my rice cooker! Seriously. :) Somehow I don't think it would be as popular in Canada.
SoloXCRacer says:
A free hockey stick perhaps?
Agent-P says:
If it was a bottle of maple syrup, I'd be sold. I always bring some back with me whenever I visit Canada.
willied says:
Plenty of Asians in Toronto.
Vulak'Aerr says:
I'd buy that! Nobody needs that many dong.
erzhik says:
It's not just a rice cooker. It's HD too!
brianLTE says:
Yet another offer early adopters miss. I'd love to be making rice as I wirelessly charge my 920 all while using my purity headphones. Psh.
ejlee072006 says:
Wtf haha
220SeaChaser says:
LOL! Only in the Asian world.
lordofthereef says:
I seriously wouldn't doubt that this is an easier promotion to fill than the charging pad, and part of the reason why they are offering this instead.
scottcraft says:
That would be a nice benefit here in Louisiana too. We eat lots of rice here.
eidorian22 says:
Mmmm Arsenic.
Round And Round says:
Does anyone have any idea how racist this sounds?
SoloXCRacer says:
Why? Vietnam is one of the largest, if not, the largest rice exporter in the world.
RDeckard says:
No, you're the only one who thinks so. You fail miserably at being PC.
NIST says:
Its called regionally appropriate marketing.
willied says:
It's not racist at all. Maybe it's just you with the problem...ever think of that?
Round And Round says:
No, I'm not racist.
Eddie_Lomax says:
I do, not at all.
Quin 2013 says:
What? Man, and all we get is a dumb wireless charger.
BigDre97 says:
lol, this is great!
Agent-P says:
Does it link wirelessly with your Lumia to let you know when the rice is done?
Gken says:
haha screw the wireless charging plate and heaphones. Give me a rice cooker!
Unicornageddon says:
Damn! If only I had 13.9 million dongs!
samyaras says:
This is outright hilarious. How is this an attractive offer?
ihavewp8 says:
I wish nokia 920 body design and very light weight like HTC 8x many weak people will not complain too much of nokia weight
Tips_y says:
Troll! I've seen this post copy-pasted all over!
ihavewp8 says:
Great now I can eat with it on my food. Instead of boring American food of cold cuts and chip & dip. Hahaha
tranthe says:
Nokia Vietnam only offers free wireless charging for preorder Lumia. The rice cooker (about 25 usd) is Nguyen Kim's bonus deal :-)
Thamuz says:
'But wait, there's more!'
