Samsung Edges Apple in U.S. Smartphone Sales

Samsung Electronics has recaptured the top market share in U.S. smartphone sales.
 
According to Counterpoint Technology Market Research, a Hong Kong market research firm, Samsung held a 28-point-eight percent market share in March. Samsung hadn't been the top sell since April the previous year.

Apple’s market share fell from 33-point-nine percent to 23 percent.  

Meanwhile, Chinese firms appear to be struggling in the U.S. The world’s number-three smartphone maker, Huawei, holds one percent of the U.S. market while Xiaomi has failed to enter the U.S., partially due to intellectual property issues. Chinese brands Vivo and Oppo have also failed to enter the U.S. market.
