A new smartphone battery is currently under development, and according to the researchers who are preparing it for launch on global markets, it would be ready for implementation in mobile phones as early as next year and could double the autonomy of mobile terminals.
SoldEnergy Systems is the company that develops the new battery that promises to double the autonomy of any smartphone, and this under the conditions that it has a capacity halved compared to that of the iPhone 6S battery, the achievement of the researchers being remarkable, but for now only from a theoretical point of view.
The new battery will be thinner than the current ones used in smartphones, but the interesting part is that it also uses a new type of liquid that does not ignite as easily as those used in current batteries, so the risk of the terminal catching fire decreases considerably. regardless of battery issues.
Basically, these batteries seem to be the dream of every smartphone owner, especially since they can store 2 times more energy than current batteries and do not pose any risks for phones, but from dream to reality is a very long way and manufacturers will probably hesitate to use them too soon, their mass production being probably quite difficult.
With a double density for energy storage, we can make a battery that is half the size, but offers the same autonomy as a lithium-ion battery. Or, we can make a battery that has the same size as a lithium-ion one, but that offers 2 times better autonomy.
The researchers who developed this battery say it could go into mass production this year, but it remains to be seen what the costs will be to manufacture tens or hundreds of millions of such batteries each year for implementation in any kind of smartphone. sold worldwide.
