Completely agree, a battery with 10x capacity would be huge. Imagine having mobile devices that only need to be charged once a week or so.

There's one promising approach using fluoride that's being investigated right now. It's only a matter of time until this or something similar comes to market. http://science.sciencemag.org/content/362/6419/1144

In practice we would have devices consuming 10x more power. The battery from your phone would probably power a phone from 2005 for more than a week.

Didn't phones from 2005 last for a week :)

Joking aside, a blackberry bold from 2011 had 1200mah and the samsung s10 has 3400.
