With the completion of its first micro solid-state battery prototype intended exclusively for wearable devices, Samsung Electro-Mechanics has made a revolutionary advancement in battery technology. The company hopes to start mass manufacturing of this breakthrough in the first half of 2026, marking a key milestone in the IT industry.
World’s First Micro Solid-State Battery Prototype details
The development of this miniature solid-state battery prototype was completed just last month, according to information released by Samsung Electro-Mechanics, which was reported by the Korean media on September 23. To verify its functionality and appropriateness for practical uses, it is presently going through extensive testing with a small number of clients.
The development of this new battery has been greatly aided by the company’s leadership in Multi-Layer Ceramic Capacitors (MLCC). The low risk of explosion of the micro solid-state battery makes it an excellent choice for gadgets that are worn in close proximity to the body. Its exceptional energy density of 200 Wh/L and outstanding stability further makes it the perfect choice for wearable electronics that are strong and small.
Samsung Electro-Mechanics has been acquiring patents on oxide-based all-solid-state batteries in order to get ready for the commercialization of these batteries. Over the previous three years, it has filed applications for the registration of over 40 patents abroad. The original design of the battery structure and the composition of solid-state electrolyte, the basic component of all-solid-state batteries, were covered by the patents.
Samsung Electro-Mechanics wants to make their solid-state battery a compelling substitute for existing technologies, and it has stated that pricing will be competitive with regular lithium-ion batteries. In order to address the growing demand for safer, more compact, and longer-lasting batteries, the business intends to quickly expand manufacturing.
