It would be wonderful, but I don't see it happening.
I wouldn't mind seeing beamed power, but there are an assortment of obstacles to be overcome.

It's great that companies strive to produce devices with increasingly efficient power usage, but it still feels depressingly like we're saddled with battery tech that hasn't significantly improved over the past two decades.

It actually has improved, and there is continual research, but there are limits to anything. The first step is what manufacturers are doing now: try to use less power in the first place.
