Can anyone share experience about power usage, performance, and functionality on older devices?

Thanks! What is it about usability that has got worse after the update?

The top info for time and battery got smaller and then the battery percent is in this stupid pill thing so the text is even smaller and harder to read.

I had to change some settings back, like the pull down menu, because I didn't like the new setup. They also added a notice that they got rid of the three swipe up navigation, which they actually got rid of the prior update. So if someone skips ahead that is gone. They added in a bunch of annoying nag about AI crap that takes a dozen settings to turn off.

And of course they changed the icon colors AGAIN which always takes me weeks to get used too.
