Samsung plans to offer cell phone users a miracle battery that can charge in a matter of minutes — 12 to be exact.

They will do this using Graphene, an ultra-thin layer that is applied to batteries. This infinitesimal layer is also 200 times stronger than steel.

Samsung has now made balls of this stuff, which can be added to a battery, and, once they are, it boosts the capacity of traditional Lithium-ion batteries by 45% and dramatically reduces charging times.
