Huawei has unveiled new quick-charging batteries that it claims can charge 10 times faster than conventional batteries. The Chinese company using its next-generation technology says the new batteries can be charged to about 50 percent capacity in a few minutes.

The company has shared two videos showing two types of quick-charging lithium-ion batteries. In one of the videos, a 600mAh battery was shown charging to 68 percent capacity in two minutes while in another video, a 3000mAh capacity with an energy density above 620 Wh/L was charged to 48 percent capacity in five minutes. The company further claimed that the quick charging batteries underwent many rounds of testing.

Huawei detailed that it "bonded heteroatoms to the molecule of graphite in anode, which could be a catalyst for the capture and transmission of lithium through carbon bonds." It further added that the heteroatoms increase the charging speed of batteries without decreasing energy density or battery life.

The Chinese company expects that its new quick charging battery will offer great backups in electronic devices including smartphones, electric-powered vehicles, wearable devices, and mobile power supplies.

The company as of now has not revealed when it will be shipping the new quick-charging tech in its handsets.

A recently conducted charging speed test had claimed that Asus ZenFone 2 and Samsung Galaxy S6 offered most power in the shortest amount of charging time. The charging test results however might not be a deal breaker for many consumers, but it definitely gave an idea how the handset manufacturers are working on some basic functionalities such as charging speed. It's clear from the tests that the fast charging mechanism that smartphones ship with - such as Qualcomm's Quick Charge, Motorola's Turbo Charge, Boostmaster technology from Asus, and Samsung's own tech in Exynos chips - do offer an advantage.
