"Sprint's Q4 2011 earnings report is out, and the results aren't stellar, but strong iPhone sales are among the highlights. \nThe company reported a $1.3 billion net loss on a $8.72 billion revenue, with much of the losses attributed to iPhone subsidizing costs. \nSprint said its iPhone sales in the quarter were 1.8 million, 40% of which were to new customers. However, one has to keep in mind that if Sprint sold more iPhones, its loss would be even bigger. \n\n\n\n\nOverall, Sprint now has 55 million net subscribers \u2014 1.6 million more than in Q3 2011; 33 million of those subscribers are post-paid, 14.8 million are pre-paid and 7.2 million wholesale and affiliate subscribers.\n\u201CDuring the past year, Sprint added more than 5 million net new customers and grew wireless service revenue by more than 5%, including 17% for the Sprint platform. This momentum gives us confidence as we execute our Network Vision upgrade and 4G LTE roll-out,\u201D said Sprint CEO Dan Hesse in a statement.\nSprint's competitors recently reported similarly positive results when it comes to iPhone activations. AT&amp;T said it activated 7.6 million iPhones last quarter, and Verizon activated 4.2 million iPhones during the same period. \nBONUS: Details About the iPhone 4S\n\n\niPhone 4S Product Details\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\niPhone 4S\nThe iPhone 4S looks and feels exactly like the iPhone 4.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\niPhone 4S Video\nThe iPhone 4S comes with an 8MP camera, an improved lens, 1080p HD video and a slew of upgrades that allow for faster video taking and crisper images.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\niPhone 4S Camera\nNew features such as cropping are now available through the iPhone 4S Camera.\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nSiri\nThe most important new feature of the iPhone 4S is Siri, a voice-controlled \"Intelligent Assistant\" that can complete tasks based on natural language.
