Already the best-selling handset maker in Europe, Samsung extended its lead in August, according to a monthly European retail survey, reports Red Herring. The survey of European wireless retailers conducted by Avian Securities, a Boston-based brokerage services firm, found that ground was gained by No. 4 Apple, with eight percent, and No. 7 RIM, with 3 percent, while LG lost in position.
Overall the survey said that 3G, touch-screens, and 5-megapixel cameras were the most popular features. Of the top 10 devices in the survey, nine had 3G capability, six had 5-megapixel cameras, and three had touch-screen interfaces, notes Red Herring.
