Some iPhone models do not have the iOS 16 Battery Percentage Display
The feature is available on all iPhone 14 models.
The new battery per cent display, which first appeared in an iOS 16 beta. It is one of the new features that come with an upgrade to iOS 16 on supported iPhones. On iPhones with the TrueDepth camera and the display notch. The feature allows you to check the battery’s charge status without swiping down the Control Center. It turns out that this feature is not available to all iPhone users.
Apple’s iOS 16 operating system is now available for a long list of supported iPhones (beginning with the iPhone 8). But not all of them will receive all of the features. The new battery percentage display is located to the right of the TrueDepth camera system, housed within the display notch.
It displays the battery percentage, which is easier to see than swiping down the Control Center.
Apple has now stated in a support document that the battery percentage display feature will not be available on all iPhone models. According to Apple’s support documentation, the new battery percentage display is unavailable on the iPhone XR, iPhone 11, iPhone 12 mini, or the more recent iPhone 13 mini. It does not explain why the feature cannot be add to these iPhone models.
While the new battery percentage display in iOS 16 is a welcome addition. It can be challenging to read because the new indicator includes the percentage inside the battery icon rather than next to it. As it did in previous models and the Control Center. The icon itself remains fill, giving users the impression that the battery has not been deplete until the battery falls to 20%. At this point, the icon turns red and remains partially filled.
