Figures from Juniper Research show Samsung and Apple continuing to dominate the smartphone market, with newly-expanded Lenovo in third place.

It estimates that 316.6 million smartphones were shipped in the third quarter of 2014. That’s a 13.1% increase year-on-year.

Samsung was responsible for a 24.8% share of the smartphone market, shipping around 78.6 million smartphones. Apple shipped 39.3 million iPhones, giving it 12.4% of the smartphone market worldwide, while combined Lenovo/Motorola shipments are estimated to exceed 23 million devices (7.3%) in the quarter.

The report notes that Samsung’s figures were down on the same quarter in 2013, while Apple’s were up. It also highlights the expansion of Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi, which increased shipments by over 25% quarter-on-quarter to ship 19 million devices in Q3 2014.

Mark Bridge writes:

The most memorable moments in life often go unrecorded. You don't have your camera in your hands. Your finger is still hovering over the 'pause' button on your audio recorder. Or you were simply too busy experiencing whatever was happening. It's all about the one that got away.

That's where Kapture can help.
