Abstract The aqueous micro batteries (AMBs) are expected to be one of the most promising micro energy storage devices for its safe operation and cost‐effectiveness. However, the performance of the AMBs is not satisfactory, which is attributed to strong interaction between metal ions and the electrode materials. Here, the first AMBs are developed with NH4+ as charge carrier. More importantly, to solve the low conductivity and the dissolution during the NH4+ intercalation/extraction problem of perylene material represented by perylene‐3,4,9,10‐tetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA), the Ti3C2Tx MXene with high conductivity and polar surface terminals is introduced as a conductive skeleton (PTCDA/Ti3C2Tx MXene). Benefitting from this, the PTCDA/Ti3C2Tx MXene electrodes exhibit ultra‐high cycle life and rate capability (74.31% after 10 000 galvanostatic chargedischarge (GCD) cycles, and 91.67 mAh g−1 at 15.0 A g−1, i.e., capacity retention of 45.2% for a 30‐fold increase in current density). More significantly, the AMBs with NH4+ as charge carrier and PTCDA/Ti3C2Tx MXene anode provide excellent energy density and power density, cycle life, and flexibility. This work will provide strategy for the development of NH4+ storage materials and the design of AMBs.
