I can confirm this fix works, but you need to set GRUB_CMDLINE_LINUX="acpi_osi=Linux" under GRUB in my case. Same laptop, same model number. I can only assume Donnarumma had it set while trying to fix some other bug. Still, it takes a while for the battery applet to display that the laptop is on battery.

Hi Tommaso, If you could also please test the latest upstream kernel available that would be great. It will allow additional upstream developers to examine the issue. Refer to https://wiki.ubuntu.com/KernelMainlineBuilds . Once you've tested the upstream kernel, please remove the 'needs-upstream-testing' tag. This can be done by clicking on the yellow pencil icon next to the tag located at the bottom of the bug description and deleting the 'needs-upstream-testing' text. Please let us know your results.
