Samsung scrapped its Galaxy Note 7 smartphone after a botched recall: the replacement devices, like the original ones, were prone to ignite. Launched in August, the flagship device had been intended to rival Apple’s iPhone. The stunning setback sent the South Korean tech giant’s share price tumbling; it cut its quarterly profit forecast by a third.
