Sprint managed to lose a million customers and over a billion dollars last quarter. This time it's not quite as bad, with a net loss of $643 million on revenue that was broadly equivalent to the same quarter of last year (around $8.8 billion). Sales of iPhones were down by around a third relative to last quarter, at 1.5 million. Total smartphone sales reached 5 million, which Sprint describes as "strong" and which helped the carrier to slightly increase the amount of profit it makes from each postpaid customer.
