NEW APPLE BATTERY WILL BE SO POWERFUL THAT YOUR PHONE OR LAPTOP WOULD LAST 'DAYS OR EVEN WEEKS'

Apple appears to be finally improving the battery life of its products which could see devices lasting for days - or even WEEKS.

The tech company is set to trial a new 'fuel cell system' to replace the old batteries found in its Macbooks, but the innovative new technology could be used in its range of phones and watches.

Not only could the new batteries last for weeks - they will also be more environmentally friendly and compact.

The fuel cell system was awarded by the US Patent Office and works by converting fuel to electrical power.

Although the cell system seems to have been specifically designed for laptops, the tech can be made smaller making it suitable for iPhones, the Daily Mail reports.

The news follows reports last week that that Amazon is working to create a new Kindle which wouldn't need charging for two years.

It's unlikely Apple's latest technology will feature in its new iPhone 6S, however.
