Thanks to a little push by the iPhone 5, Sprint hits 1M total LTE devices sold
As one can imagine, having Apple’s iPhone on your network certainly works wonders for carriers. While speaking at a Goldman Sachs’ conference in New York this afternoon, Sprint CEO Dan Hesse announced that his company sold 1 million LTE devices to date. We can assume the iPhone 5, which first became available for pre-order last Friday, played a considerable role in pushing Sprint across its milestone. That is not to say Sprint’s other LTE offerings, including the Samsung Galaxy S III and Samsung Galaxy Note II, did not play a big role. However, the iPhone’s popularity, mixed with Sprint’s unlimited data plan, certainly did not hurt either.
