Samsung hint smartphones with unlimited battery life

Battery is a very important thing on a smart phone. Since the phone consumes a lot of power, a good battery capacity is needed. Moreover, on removable batteries, a long battery life is preferred. The same thing applies to non-removable ones. Since the non-removable batteries make up the phone’s life as well, it’s best that they have longer life. Battery life has become something really essential to a smart phone’s specs. However, it seems that we have found the solution to battery life with Samsung.

MIT – Massachusetts Institute of Technology – has announced on August 18 that they  have found a way to increase battery life to unlimited use. The institute is in collaboration with Samsung, so maybe the new kind of battery will be used on Samsung phones in the future.

Maybe Samsung Galaxy S7 or Note 6 battery will have unlimited life

The solution is that they will replace the liquid sustance in the battery with solid material. This way the liquid substance will not be degenerate, making the battery capacity decrease. As the solid material takes place, there will be no capacity decrease after charges. We can recharge the battery for hundreds or thousands of times without worrying about it dying. And it means the battery has nearly unlimited use.

Moreover, MIT stated that this battery is more resistant to temperature and shock. It even is not flammable since there is no such substance to burn. The new kind of battery also reduces costs, while still being efficient and safe. Since there are many accidents with battery, the new one would give a lot of improvements in life.

We do not know when this unlimited battery will come into real production, but this is a huge step forward in the technology world. Not just smart phones, we can integrate this battery on many electronic devices as well. When that time comes, there will be a new era for us.
