No matter how spectacular a smartphone is without quick charge support, it
won’t sell that much in the market. But Samsung is presenting you with
something different… a technology that will give you 100% full charge in 12min.
Samsung’s Advanced Institute of Technology (SAIT) announced on Tuesday that
it has developed a battery technology that can fast-charge mobile
devices and electric vehicles faster than ever before.
For a battery that usually takes an hour to charge with current fast-charge
technology, Samsung claims the new technology could fast-charge a battery in 12
minutes.
The new technology includes a single
layer of carbon atoms from graphite, known as graphene, which is “100
times more effective than copper in conducting electricity.” It also
transfers energy “140 times faster” than silicon used in current
lithium technology, which makes it “an ideal material for fast
charge,” according to Samsung.

The concept is exactly the same as today’s fast-charging technology in
smartphones, where 30 minutes of regular fast charging gets you 50% of battery
charge. Fast charging is, indeed, faster than regular charging, which could
take over two hours to fully charge a smartphone battery.
The good news is Samsung has found a way to mass produce the technology at
an affordable price but there is no mention “when”, or “if” Samsung will ever
use its new battery technology on mobile devices any time soonest.
What do you think about this new development?
this is great. i don't know why infinix removed the fast charging in infiix note 4 pro

thanks for the information
Welcomed development
Sound development
Hope it won't explode like Samsung Note 7
it's not battery nah
Technology is the only thing that scares and impress me at thesame time. I hope this kind of tech wont reduce the life cycle of batteries though?
It's a good development but they should make sure it is okay before bringing it out before we start having exploding batteries everywhere.
Hmmm! This is great, weldone Samsung.
Great
I can't wait
Lolzz another atomic bomb explosive device is coming from samusong.
I no agree ooooo…bomb ke
Boss yomi abeg dey update us concerning huawei products na wetin me I dey use be dat…
9c development
This is great
This is great news. Now Samsung smartphone will sell like garri in Nigeria. As soon as the phone is out of course.
Full battery in 12mins is a really good one…we really need it in nigeria..we no get light here
They'll make millions once they patent it and start selling the tech to the likes of Apple and other companies like Tesla.
Wow….
This is good to hear.
It's a welcomed development as long as it doesn't have any side effects.
Nice development though….lets hope it is realistic without any mistake
