IDC: Samsung extends lead in smartphone sales

(AP) ? A new report says Samsung has extended its lead over Apple in smartphone sales, in part because its new Galaxy phones came out before Apple updated its iPhone.

The research group IDC says Samsung Electronics Co. had a market share of 33 percent in the second quarter, up from 17 percent a year ago. Apple's fell slightly to 17 percent, from 19 percent a year ago. The drop is typical several months after the release of a new iPhone model.

Samsung's Galaxy S3 phones got good reviews when it came out late in the second quarter. Apple's iPhone 4S came out in October, and a new one isn't due until this fall.

IDC says the big question is how well Samsung's phones will sell once the new iPhone comes out.
