Ideally the device would show a battery reading when you try to turn it on but that feature presumably can't be incorporated into the firmware.
I don't know of any device that can correctly display the battery level during startup.

As for your comment about a replacement battery, replacing the battery in an Apple is not cheap either - so it's also a throwaway product.
