Lithium‐sulfur batteries have been developing in recent years and appear to offer an alternative existing commercial that can potentially replace them the future. With their exceptional theoretical energy density, lower production costs, affordable environmentally friendly abundant raw materials, lithium‐sulfur shown ability defeat counterparts race for rechargeable devices currently being developed. The display extraordinary features, but they suffer from sulfur's non‐conductivity, shuttle effect results polysulfide dissolution, volumetric sulfur changes during charging, dendrites at anode, resulting a decline capacity short battery life. As result of rigorous innovative engineering designs, developed overcome drawbacks utilize entire potential past decade. This review will pay particular attention porous carbon‐based matrix especially graphene‐based nanocomposites are most commonly used producing cathodes. We provide in‐depth perspective on structural merits graphene detailed mechanism by which interact with sulfur, essential strategies designing high‐performance cathodes batteries. Finally, we discuss significant challenges prospects high density long cycle lives next‐generation electric vehicles.
