The $200 Passport discount ends on November 30 and then starting on
December 1 you will be able to "trade-up" your iPhone 4S, 5, 5C, 5S, or 6
for a Passport. The press release below states that a new iPhone 6 could be
worth up to $400 and then an additional $150 ($200 CAD) is offered for
Passport purchases.
The BlackBerry trade-up page
shows what each model of iPhone will be worth with offers ranging from
$300 to $550 ($600 CAD). These prices are actually much better than
other carrier and manufacturer trade-ins we have seen before. The
convenience of working directly with BlackBerry may make this an
attractive option for those looking to switch to a Passport.
The red and white BlackBerry Passport models are available to
pre-order now, priced at $699 and $599, respectively.

More Discounts and More Opportunities to Buy
BlackBerry is also offering a Black Friday deal for BlackBerry
Passport and BlackBerry Z30 smartphone devices. Beginning November 22
and for a limited time only, BlackBerry will be offering $100 USD/CAD
off the purchase of a black colored BlackBerry Passport. That means that
U.S. customers can purchase a new BlackBerry Passport for only $499 USD
(from an already reduced price of $599 USD) and Canadian customers can
purchase a new BlackBerry Passport for $599 CAD (from $699 CAD). This
offer is available through ShopBlackBerry.com in the U.S. and Canada and

tax or shipping costs.
With BlackBerry’s new financing options from PayPal Credit, U.S.

taking an immediate hit to their bank accounts or holiday funds. For any
purchases over $200 USD, customers can purchase through PayPal and
choose to pay off their balance in full by the payment due date that is
on their statements, or pay in six installments over six months.**
*Eligible customers will receive amounts back via a Visa™ Prepaid
Card to be sent by mail following receipt of a qualifying Apple iPhone
and a valid proof of purchase of a BlackBerry Passport. The promotional
value is based upon the condition and model of the Apple iPhone traded
in. New BlackBerry Passports must be purchased on or from
ShopBlackBerry.com or purchased from, shipped from and sold by
Amazon.com after December 1, 2014 to qualify for the BlackBerry Passport
Trade-Up program. Additional terms, conditions and limitations apply.
