BlackBerry wants you to trade in your iPhone and depending on the model, it could be worth a lot of cash.
BlackBerry is offering to pay iPhone users as much as $550 to switch to a square-screened BlackBerry Passport.
Starting in December, customers who trade in an iPhone for the keyboard-equipped Passport will get as much as $400 back depending on their Apple smartphone’s model and condition, plus a $150 prepaid gift card.
After seeing much of its market share evaporate with competition from Apple and devices running Google’s Android software, BlackBerry is focusing on selling to business and government users and it’s touting the physical keyboard and ease of working on the Passport’s wide screen.
The deal is part of a blast of holiday promotions BlackBerry announced yesterday, including a Black Friday sale, a new financing program and red and white Passport phones.
