Mobile battery technology advancements in Japan

Overview

The Japanese mobile battery market is seeing an increase in products utilizing semi-solid state battery technology, which offers enhanced safety over traditional lithium-ion batteries.

In early October, manufacturers such as MATECH introduced models like the MagOn Watch Max 10000, which uses ‘SemiCore™’ semi-solid state technology with a gel electrolyte to reduce thermal runaway and fire risks. Other brands, including UGREEN and Xiaomi, have also focused on ultra-thin designs and wireless charging capabilities like Qi2 and MagSafe.

By mid-October, MOTTERU Co., Ltd. expanded this trend by launching a lineup of three semi-solid state power banks with capacities ranging from 5,000mAh to 20,000mAh. These units are designed for increased longevity, supporting approximately 2,000 charge cycles, and have undergone nail penetration tests to ensure they do not smoke or ignite.
