It might be a design choice though, to keep the panel bar "clean".
I believe you can still see estimated battery time remaining if you click on the panel menu (top right?). -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to gnome-shell in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1728045 Title: Please restore battery time remaining to top bar! Status in GNOME Shell: Unknown Status in gnome-shell package in Ubuntu: Confirmed Bug description: In Ubuntu 17.04 and earlier, I was able to display the amount of battery life remaining AS TIME in the top bar of my screen. Now all I'm able to display, in 17.10, is the battery percentage. Frankly, I don't give a flying fig about battery percentage, and I'm not sure most other people do either. What I care about is how much time I have left to work on my laptop before it's out of power. If you want to display _both_ the percentage and the time remaining, or allow the user to choose which to display, that would be great. But just taking away the eminently useful time remaining and replacing it with the much less useful percentage is annoying and should be fixed.
