Our Samsung Galaxy Note 9 review is up today, and it's pretty much the best Android phone you can buy right now. The only problem is, it's also the most expensive Android phone you can buy right now. But it's got that all-day battery life so that's one less thing that'll stress you out and cause you to have an emotional breakdown in New Jersey.

The Note 9's stylus can also be charged instantly using a supercapacitor. How exactly does that work? Our science reporter Angela Chen explains, as we wrap up the last day of our Battery Week coverage. Have a great weekend and stay hydrated, for we are but little batteries running around on limited energy.
