iOS 16.1 Beta Adds Battery Percentage to Additional iPhone Models

iOS 16.1 beta has brought back the battery percentage indicator to the iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 11, and iPhone XR.
When Apple released iOS 16, it updated most Face ID iPhones to once again show a battery percentage. Strangely, the iPhone 13 mini, iPhone 12 mini, iPhone 11, and iPhone XR were left out.
Apple confirmed this in a support document:
iPhone XR, iPhone 11, iPhone 12 mini, and iPhone 13 mini don't display battery percentage in the status bar.
Thankfully, it appears that all four models have the feature in iOS 16.1 beta and we're hopeful that will stay true through the public release.
