    not surprised at all with apple's dominance in the us market,americans are petroitic and beleive in pushing one of their own first. apple must not relax though because i believe in the next year or two years samsung will equal or pass apple.my predictions for the top 5 spartphones brands for 2014.1 sumsang 2 apple 3 nokia 4 lg 5 motorola.
