This big beauty could be yours -- and a whole year of service to go with it.

If there's a phone that created more recent headlines than the iPhone X , it's the Google Pixel 2 XL. In both cases, not all the news was good -- but, let's face it, these are highly desirable models.

Also highly expensive. That's why I'm overjoyed by today's giveaway, which comes courtesy of US Mobile. One lucky winner will take home a Google Pixel 2 XL and an entire year of unlimited Super LTE service -- a combined value of $1,400.

Two lucky runners-up will each get a Huawei Honor 7X and two months of service (including 5GB of data and 1,000 minutes and texts).

In case you're not familiar with US Mobile, this up-and-coming carrier leverages both T-Mobile and Verizon networks, meaning it can accommodate nearly any BYO-phone customer. And its plans are highly competitive, particularly for Verizon customers seeking a less expensive alternative (without sacrificing coverage).

Want to know more? I first wrote about US Mobile back in November, when it was offering a Cheapskate-exclusive deal. That has since expired, but I have a sneaking suspicion there will be others in the future. Until then, that post will tell you a lot about what you need to know about the carrier.
