The iPhone 5 gives Apple 27% of global LTE market share

The iPhone 5 is considered Apple's first LTE-capable smartphone and according to reports, it has proven to be popular enough that it has managed to capture 27% of the global LTE market last quarter - pretty impressive for a phone that wasn't released too long ago, not to mention Apple's first LTE-capable smartphone as well. While Apple might be feeling pretty chuffed at 27%, their competitor Samsung on the other hand is pretty much dominating the scene with a 40% market share. However this isn't exactly great news for Samsung either as the 40% market share is actually a drop from 50.9% in the last quarter.
