Apple is reportedly developing a new battery technology to improve battery life and charging speed.
Apple is said to be working on a new battery technology to enhance both battery life and charging speed.
【Mobile China News】 Although Apple usually signs contracts with external companies for manufacturing, it also tries to do as much engineering and design work internally as possible. According to ETnews, Apple is developing the next generation of iPhone batteries with the goal of commercializing them by 2025.
Industry insiders revealed on the 6th that Apple is working on a battery development project aimed at deploying it in products released after 2025. Apple is directly involved in the development of battery materials, such as anode and cathode materials, with the goal of developing a completely new battery that significantly improves performance compared to existing batteries.
The report suggests that Apple is experimenting with new cathode materials – nickel, cobalt, manganese, and aluminum. The new approach will also significantly increase the silicon content. Silicon expands when heated during the charging process, but Apple has found a way to mitigate this issue.

The cathode material is a key material that determines the performance of the battery, such as energy density, power output, and stability. Apple manufactures cathode materials by blending raw materials such as nickel, cobalt, manganese, and aluminum, and it is widely known that Apple is seeking a completely different new ingredient from existing materials to improve performance.
The new cathode mixture is expected to increase battery density (reading higher capacities in the same volume) and faster charging speed. This tech giant may use carbon nanotubes (CNTs) as the conductive material, which will further enhance battery performance.
The same report also claims that the first devices adopting the new battery technology (possibly iPhones) will be launched as early as 2025, indicating that the development is in its later stages.
