| Summary: | Nowadays solid‐state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs) catch researchers’ attention and are considered as the most promising energy storage devices for their high energy density and safety. However, compared to lithium‐ion batteries (LIBs), the low ionic conductivity in solid‐state electrolytes (SSEs) and poor interface contact between SSEs and electrodes counteract some advantages of SSEs. As a result, SSLMBs show high energy density but low critical current density and slow charging speed. Herein, the recent progress and proposed strategies for fast‐charging SSLMBs are reviewed. In the second part of this review, various strategies for improving SSE performance in fast‐charging batteries are comprehensively highlighted. In the third part, various rational structure design schemes benefitting fast‐charging batteries are discussed. Finally, the development of fast‐charging SSLMBs is concluded and prospected. It is believed that the combination of fast‐charging times and SSLMBs is rather competitive for next‐generation, high energy density, high safety, and high charging rate energy storage devices.
