Washington, D.C. (February 27, 2011) -- Vizio easily defeated the competition in LCD set sales in the United States during last year's fourth quarter, according to a new study from research firm iSuppli.
The research group says Vizio, which is based in California, captured a 27.6 percent market share, shipping roughly 2.9 million units in the U.S. Samsung was second with a 20.6 percent market share, shipping about 2.1 million sets.
Sony was third with just 10.1 percent market share while LG Electronics was fourth with 9.4 percent.
Vizio's dominance in the LCD category was so strong in the fourth quarter that it also finished first in all flat-panel set sales in the U.S. although it doesn't manufacture Plasma sets. Vizio captured a 23.9 percent market share of all flat-panel sales while Samsung was second with a 21.5 percent market share.
The company also was the top seller of LCD sets for the entire year, although its margin of victory was smaller. Vizio captured a 21.3 percent market share in LCD sales in the U.S. while Samsung was second with a 18.8 percent market share.
Vizio has been able to outsell larger and more established rivals over the last few years because of lower prices, innovative technologies and shrewd marketing.

That's because your bro's Samsung is no good - Samsung LED's are generally the best these days.
Unsurprising news, though. People will generally take cheap over best.

Or at least will when the differences are so negligable.

Maybe - but since I am a videophile, not for me ;)
