ate up in 2021 through the likes of Verizon Prepaid, Metro by T-Mobile, Cricket Wireless, and Boost Mobile.What's arguably even more remarkable is the company's number two spot in the sub-$400 segment of the US smartphone market, although it's not entirely clear if Apple's $399 second-gen iPhone SE was in fact included in that category.
