Samsung is Watch online Fast Lane to Malibu (2000)working to launch a smartphone with a graphene battery as soon as next year, leaker of phone-related news Evan Blass tweeted on Monday.

Samsung has been working on graphene-based tech solutions for years, and the company announced it had developed a "graphene ball" battery in late 2017. The battery could charge as much as five times faster as lithium ion batteries, commonly used in smartphones, while also allowing for bigger capacity, but the company hasn't announced a product based on graphene batteries yet.
