Samsung Electronics has reported record revenues of 59 billion dollars in its third quarter.
The strong revenues were fuelled by a 50% jump in smart phone sales, while profits from microchips rocketed 82%.
The Korean tech giant posted a third quarter net profit of $8.3bn, a 49% increase over the same period last year.
Samsung’s mobile and chip businesses were likely boosted by US sanctions against its Chinese rival Huawei.
