For the third day now, new owners of the iPhone X are discovering the news that Apple has prepared for them in their new flagship. There are quite a few, to the point where the company decided to make a short one instructional video, which represents all the news and changes in the operation and functioning of the phone. The absence of a physical Home Button and a cut-out on the top of the screen affected these changes to the greatest extent. It was he who caused one of the most used functions, which most owners turn on on their new phone, to no longer be visible - the percentage of the battery.

In the basic view, the graphic battery indicator is displayed in the upper right corner of the display. However, there is not enough space to see both the battery image and the percentage value of its capacity. To display it, the user has to either open the control center or look directly into the settings, which is a rather unfortunate and cumbersome solution. In addition to these two methods, the exact charge status of the battery can be determined by several others.

Either you can ask the assistant Siri, who will then tell you the exact value, or it will be displayed if you connect the phone to a charging source. The absence of this indicator is rather annoying for those who are used to it, and it is strange that Apple does not move one icon from the right to the left corner of the screen. Then the percentage display would fit there. Another solution that might not be that difficult to implement is swapping the battery icon for a percentage value. Maybe someone at Apple will think of it and we will see a similar solution in one of the future updates. For now, we'll have to make do with the graphical representation.
