  • As reported by The Korea Herald, Chang Duk-hyun, CEO of Samsung Electro-Mechanics, the company's components subsidiary, has revealed that it could start mass producing the tech next year, although who will benefit first is anyone's guess.

The article from TechRadar discusses a potential breakthrough in wearable technology, focusing on a new battery technology developed by Samsung. This technology, known as a "solid-state battery," promises to significantly extend the battery life of devices like smartwatches. Samsung SDI, the company's battery division, has announced plans to commercialize these batteries by 2027, with mass production possibly starting in 2023. The article highlights that this advancement could not only benefit Samsung's own products but might also influence competitors like the Apple Watch, given the universal appeal of longer battery life in wearables. The solid-state batteries are expected to offer higher energy density, faster charging, and improved safety over current lithium-ion batteries, potentially revolutionizing the market for smartwatches and other portable devices.
