Today the earnings circus rolls around to Sprint, where it's their turn to announce some quarterly figures for the period of Q2 2013. Top of the line Sprint posted a pretty sizeable operating loss of $874 million. Of note in regards to the iPhone were mixed results; overall unit sales were down slightly on the previous quarter, but a good percentage of those sold were to new customers.
iPhone sales for Sprint hit 1.4 million for Q2, down around 100,000 units on the previous quarter, but the good news for the carrier is that of that 1.4 million, 41% of those were sold to new customers. Compared to competitors like Verizon, the numbers are pretty slim, but it remains good news for Apple that new customers continue to pick up the iPhone across the major U.S carriers.
