BlackBerry fans are in for a neat surprise this holiday season, as the company has just discounted the BlackBerry Passport and the Z30.

The Canadian company has been trying to make a comeback for a good while, after losing significant ground to rivals on the smartphone market. BlackBerry launched several handsets recently, and a new promotion now aims to make two of them more appealing to prospective customers.

As part of a new limited-time promotion BlackBerry calls Boxing Day, targeting interested customers in the U.S. and Canada, the BlackBerry Passport is available for $100 off in all available color options - red, white, and black. The older BlackBerry Z30, meanwhile, is now 50 percent off, selling for just $250 for Canadian customers, and 55 percent off at $225 for U.S. buyers. The promotion kicked off on Dec. 26 and runs through Dec. 30.

The recently-launched BlackBerry Passport stirred lots of interest since its launch, as it sports good specifications and an intriguing square-ish form factor. The older BlackBerry Z30, meanwhile, has not exactly been the most popular device out there, but it's nonetheless a capable smartphone and this attractive discount should help boost its popularity.

In addition to the BlackBerry Passport and Z30 smartphones, BlackBerry is also slashing the price of a number of accessories.
