Samsung believes that its performance in the second quarter of 2017 will lead to the best financial results in the company’s history. The South Korean tech firm made $12.1 billion USD in profit and $52 billion USD in overall revenue in the second section of the year. These results would mean that revenue was up by 18% year on year, while profit would have increased by a huge 72%, it would also break the profit record of around $8.8 billion USD set in 2013. The improved performance is said to be driven by the company’s display and components divisions. Samsung is also expected to get a bump from the upcoming release of the Galaxy Note 8, which is supposed to be dropping in September. IMAGE CREDIT SAMSUNG
