HSPA+ \u201c4G\u201d accounted for 22% sales, however, leaving LTE and WiMAX technologies with a much less impressive share of the smartphone market. Older HSPA+ technology was the only 4G offered by AT&amp;T up until recently, and it is still the only 4G technology offered by T-Mobile. The firm also counts AT&amp;T\u2019s iPhone 4S among the 4G phones sold last quarter, giving the category a significant boost. LTE-enabled handsets, on the other hand, accounted for just 7% of the smartphone market, while WiMAX made up only 6%, dropping from its third-quarter high of 10%. Verizon\u2019s HTC Thunderbolt was the most popular LTE handset in the fourth quarter last year, while Sprint\u2019s HTC EVO was the most popular WiMAX device.
