Data from the report places Samsung in the first position, followed by Apple and LG.<\/p>\n<p>This development became a reality as the Korean company had more sales than any smartphone company &#8211; including Apple &#8211;\u00a0 in the US market in Q3 2020.<\/p>\n<p>Pundits attribute the growth to the introduction of budget smartphones as well as flagships like the Galaxy\u00a0 Z Fold 2. But some sites like <a href=\"https:\/\/androidauthority.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Andriodauthority.com<\/a> hold the view that the late arrival of the iPhone 12 gave Samsung an upper hand in the market.
