Actually it is. You're buying service from Sprint on a monthly basis, but you own your phone.
It's much like getting cable modem service and owning your own cable modem or getting cable TV service and owning your own TV.
You're not leasing the hardware. You own it. If your TV breaks, you're not going to get a credit from your cable company for service you couldn't use. If your phone breaks, Sprint is not under any obligation to provide you with a service credit because your hardware is not capable of using the service.
