Cnet: According to Canaccord Genuity analyst T. Michael Walkley, Samsung’s Galaxy S3 is now the most popular smartphone in the U.S., replacing Apple’s iPhone 4S. The iPhone 4S had held the top spot since its launch last October. “We believe this is the first month since the iPhone 4S launched in October 2011 that it was not the top-selling smartphone in the U.S. market,” Walkley said.

Analysts say the iPhone likely dropped to second place because many iPhone buyers are delaying their purchases until the launch of the iPhone 5.
