That would be great. I'll believe it when I see it.

The current v1 blade battery has operated in the real world about the same as their original announcement, which also was viewed with skepticism.

These aren't research laboratory battery advancements without real world scenarios attached. These are announcements for an improved product entering production. Like a new phone being announced, not just a white paper from a lab that hasn't been scaled.

Also, the brand that made this product spec announcement is the biggest electric automaker in the world, by far. To stay with your comparison, it would be like if Samsung would declare that their new phone will have 100W charging and 6000mAh capacity, while the actual phones sold by them could only be charged by 50W and have 4000mAh. It is just unimaginable that they would be lying about sth that can and will be easily verified the moment the first products reach the customers or reviewers.
