Save $200 on the BlackBerry Passport for Black Friday; deal runs through the end of this month

Here's a great Black Friday offer for those who have fallen in love with the BlackBerry Passport. The Canadian firm's enterprise-centric flagship handset, is being slashed in price by 29% through November 30th. That means that the phone is being cut in price by $200, and costs $499. Keep in mind that the device is not supported on Verizon, Sprint or U.S. Cellular. Fittingly, the Black Friday deal is for the black Passport only.

The BlackBerry Passport is equipped with a 4.5-inch screen that carries a boxy 1440 x 1440 resolution. The wide-screen view is being marketed by BlackBerry as an advantage for business users as it allows them to see spreadsheets, reports, maps and messages without having to move the screen from side to side. A quad-core 2.2GHz Snapdragon 801 CPU is on board with the Adreno 330 GPU crunching graphics. 3GB of RAM is on board. Of the 32GB of native storage that comes with the Passport, 25GB is available to the user. If more is needed, a 128GB capacity microSD slot can be employed. A 13MP rear-facing camera and a 2MP front-facing shooter are included, and the 3440mAh battery keeps the lights on for more than a day without requiring a recharge.

BlackBerry says it has the phone in stock, no small feat considering that it has kept supplies low in order to prevent building up a huge inventory of the handset. If the BlackBerry Passport is on your holiday shopping list, you might want to take advantage of this Black Friday sale.
