It's Not Even Close: Apple, Samsung Smartphone Marketleaders

Apple and Samsung are leaving competitors LG and Motorola in the dust. New research from Parks Associates shows, for example, that LG has dropped to just 9% of consumer-reported brand share, behind Apple (47%) and Samsung (29%).

Samsung models, despite quality issues related to its Galaxy Note line last year, have sold better than their predecessors. In addition, a majority (65%) of Samsung smartphone users have a model more than two years old, which means they are poised to upgrade.
