iPhone snags its highest U.S. market share ever, says report | Apple - CNET News

Data points suggesting the conventional wisdom about Apple faltering, at least in the U.S., may be way off
"Looking at the 12 weeks ending November 25, the research firm pegged Apple's U.S. smartphone share at 53.3 percent, thanks in part to strong sales of the iPhone 5. That number was up from 35.8 percent a year prior. And it's likely to grow.
"Apple has reached a major milestone in the U.S. by passing the 50 percent share mark for the first time, with further gains expected to be made during December," Dominic Sunnebo, Kantar's global consumer insight director, said in a statement.
At the same time, Android's U.S. market share showed a drop to 41.9 percent from 52.9 percent a year prior."
