PLEASE give us the option to choose the older style battery percentage icon. It didn't need changing. It simply showed your battery percentage. This new pill shaped one is smaller and more difficult to read as the battery gets to halfway. Some of us don't need a picture representation of battery life, we just want to know the number.

      I second this! I do miss the old style! I have great vision and strongly dislike the new one! At least make it a little bigger

      Hello, 

      Thank you for sharing your feedback about the battery percentage icon. We completely understand how the previous style might feel more functional for those who prefer a clear, easy-to-read number over the new pill-shaped design.

      Your suggestion to bring back the option for the older style makes perfect sense—it would give users the flexibility to choose what works best for them. I’ll share this with the development team so they can consider adding this customization in future updates.

      We appreciate you taking the time to provide this feedback. If you have any additional suggestions or ideas, feel free to let us know!

       

      Regards,

      One UI Beta Team

      Still no update to revert the battery icon????

      I dislike this blob so much, hard to read, didnt ask for a blob icon... Please add a status-bar option to restore the traditional battery outline icon with the percentage displayed beside it, as on earlier One UI versions. Keep the current pill and percentage-only styles as choices. The pill is difficult for me to read quickly, and hiding its background leaves only the percentage rather than restoring a recognizable battery icon.
