Taking a very "un-carrier" approach, Cricket and MetroPCS recently introduced financing programs that allow prepaid customers to purchase high-end smartphones with a reduced upfront cost.

Cricket customers whose purchase exceeds $200 can apply for financing at retail stores and authorized dealers.
