BlackBerry and MobileSyrup are giving you a free case when you buy a phone from ShopBlackBerry

So here’s the thing. We don’t usually run these kinds of promotions because they stink of “native advertising” or “pay to play,” but I can tell you this is neither.

BlackBerry offered us a chance to offer you, the reader, a free case with every purchase of a BlackBerry phone from ShopBlackBerry.com. No catches (well, a few, but they’re minor). In the interest of true transparency, this is basically a big experiment: we wondered, how many people will take us up on the offer?

Now, the deal: with every purchase of a phone at ShopBlackBerry.com — including the Passport, Leap, Classic and Passport Silver Edition — you get a free case of your choice.

After putting the phone in your cart, head down to the Promo Code area and paste one of the following codes.

MobileSyrupFreeSilverPassportCase
MobileSyrupFreeClassicCase
MobileSyrupFreePassportCase
MobileSyrupLeapFreeCase

The cases vary by phone type. Both Passport units are eligible for the Black Leather Flip Case, while the Leap and Classic get Leather Pocket cases.

And that’s it! No pressure — we don’t get commission or anything from your purchase, just a good feeling from knowing you’re getting a good deal on an unlocked phone.

The promotion ends on September 15th.

Finally, here’s some legal jargon we’re obligated to say:
