The company plans to make public tomorrow the conclusions of the report commissioned to the consulting firm american safety UL, in a press conference that will offer the head of its mobile telephone division, Koh Dong-jin.
Some in the media have pointed out that the problem would be originated in a fault in the process of inspection of the batteries prior to mounting on the terminals, an end which for the moment has not been confirmed by the world’s largest manufacturer of mobile phones.
With the publication of the report, the giant south Korean aspires to regain the confidence of consumers and turn the page on the crisis that caused the withdrawal in all the world of its “phablet” of high-end.
Samsung has announced a call for massive revision of Note 7 in September, shortly after his departure to the market in the previous month, due to several cases of fire in the devices and in October decided to check out definitely the model to persist the problem.
The fiasco caused a fall of 30 percent year-on-year in operating profit during the third quarter of last year, up 5.2 trillion won (4.190 million euros, 4.575 million dollars).
Samsung Electronics plans to publish on Tuesday its results for the fourth quarter of last year, in which the company estimates point to a significant recovery of operating profit thanks to higher sales of chips and displays.
The conglomerate Samsung has also been splashed across the last week by the corruption scandal of the “Rasputina” in south korea, due to the alleged involvement in the plot of the heir and number one in the group, Lee Jae-yong.
prosecutors requested the arrest of Lee as a suspect of bribe due to the large number of donations of Samsung allegedly made to organizations related to Choi Soo-il, dubbed the “Rasputina” and confidant to president Park Geun-hye, in exchange for favors.
But the competent court rejected on Thursday the arrest of Lee when you consider that there is insufficient evidence, the prosecutor’s office will continue to investigate the executive for his alleged role within the larger plot that has shaken the asian country and caused the impeachment of the president.
