SEOUL—Samsung Electronics Co. said Friday that its second-quarter profit jumped 48% to another company record as it increased smartphone sales and experienced cyclical recoveries in its chip and display component businesses.

The launch of a new, high-end smartphone helped its telecom division continue to have the most impact on Samsung's overall results. The unit accounted for nearly two-thirds of the operating profit for the world's biggest technology manufacturer by sales.
