Below is a list of the top 5 popular mobile phone brands in the US and the top-selling smartphone brands in the USA.

1. Apple iPhones

3. Motorola/ Lenovo

Motorola is a popular mobile phone brand in the US.  Until 1988, it was a leading US based multinational company and manufacturer of mobile phones. However, the company fell into a loss that affected its position and market share.

Lenovo, a popular personal computer manufacturer, entered the smartphone world in 2012 and acquired Motorola Mobility from Google in 2014.  Lenovo never stopped selling phones under the Motorola and moto brand names.
