One area that Apple has concentrated on, albeit extremely silently, is the native Phone app. With that in mind, if the Phone app doesn't live up to your requirements, or you're looking for something a little additional and you happen to be jailbroken, then the Area Code Display Pro package could potentially be the solution you've been seeking.

This handy little Cydia tweak called 'Actual Battery' will show the real battery percentage measure on your iPhone’s status bar, instead of using Apple’s own algorithm which shows the expected battery percentage remaining on your device based on your usage.
