I'd rather have the percentage on and with slightly larger digits, because at more than a feet away from the phone screen hard to tell how much battery charge is left without the percentage.

Number on and icon completely off.

I stopped checking how much battery is left like 10 years ago. I charge every night and thats it. If it gets critically low it notifies my another way.

I wish the number was clearly visible. That’s all I want. The numbers are usually too hard to see for me.

It depends on what kind of user you are. The ones that charge their phone whenever near a charger don't need a number. The ones who only charge when the phone threatens to shut down absolutely need the number.

Nunber gang. That said it doesn't change a lot for me. If I had a bar and it looked half full I'd be charging same as if the nunber read 55%

That's Numberwang

On because of accuracy and its the default

Wow, I actually can’t stand the number. It gives me anxiety.

I'm gonna make a thread asking, "what is a food you know?" so everyone can reply "homt dog" and I can get lots of notifications

I remember when I switched from a Samsung phone to one of the first pixel phones years ago and being so angry that it did not have an option to add the number. I think the only way back then ended up being in the developer options. That phone somehow just ended up getting into a boot loop only like 4 months after getting it and they didnt respect the warranty. It was provided by work so I didnt care that much since no real loss to me, but ill never forget that impression it left on me and ill never get another pixel or google phone ever again.

Let's have a vote. I'll make two replies, please DOWNVOTE the one you agree with. The option with the most downvotes wins.

Number on

Back in the good old days, the number was next to the battery, and it was bigger. Then they updated the software and shrunk the number down to fit it in the battery.

Lithium ion batteries cannot super accurately report their own charge so the percentage isn't necessarily digit accurate.

I am also usually just making sure it'll get me to a place I can charge it when I actually need to worry about charge. That doesn't usually require like the difference between say 33% and 26% for me.

I just need to be able to see if I've got like a fifth of battery left or less / more.

Admitedly also with the ADHD if there's a percentage I fixate on it for no reason so it's less annoying for me to have it off.

Same with the battery level in my e-bike. 👀 I know it'll get me to work and back as it always does but not constantly fixating on the remaining battery is impossible.
