The problem with the lithium-ion batteries found in our smartphones is that they tend to lose the number of charges they hold over time, which mean that a phone that says 100% when brand new will last a lot longer than one that’s say two years old. However, Apple could be working to fix that. According to a patent discovered by Patently Apple, it appears that Apple is working together with the US government on a possible battery invention that will introduce new coating materials for batteries.
