"Apple remains the dominant smartphone manufacturer in the U.S., but Samsung is catching up," said Harry Wang -- Director of Health & Mobile Product Research at Parks Associates -- in a press statement.
Apple's arch rival Samsung has nabbed the second position with 31 percent market share, while another South Korean phone maker LG came third with 10 percent, followed by Motorola, HTC and others.
Parks Associates, citing "360 View: Mobility & the App Economy" report, stated that one-third of Apple iPhone owners still have a model that is more than two years old, compared to 30 percent of Samsung phone owners.
