LONDON - Mobile phones that use Google's Android operating system have outsold Apple's iPhone in the US for the first time.

Android accounted for 28% of the sales in the US smartphone market in the first quarter of this year, with the iPhone mustering up a 21% share, according to research from the NPD Group. However, both handsets still fall well short of the 36% share achieved by Blackberry.
