Samsung Electronics reported third-quarter revenues of $ 59 billion in its third quarter, mainly fuelled by a 50 percent rise in smartphone sales and profits from microchips surging 82 percent.
The Korean tech giant posted a third-quarter net profit of $8.3 billion, a 49 percent increase from the same period last year.
