Samsung Electronics has reported a record quarterly profit thanks to surging global demand for memory chips.The South Korean tech giant reported an operating profit of 14 trillion won ($12bn; £9.3bn) in the three months to June, up 72% on a year earlier.Sales climbed 18% to 60 trillion won, buoyed by strong sales of smartphones including the new flagship Galaxy S8.Analysts say the results indicate Samsung has recovered from the disastrous Galaxy Note 7 recall.That handset was axed after a battery fault led to some devices catching fire.Also on Friday, Samsung launched a new phone in South Korea using parts from the Note 7 to “minimise the environmental impact” of its high-profile flop.
