Is the battery replaceable and what kind of battery is used for? Only way to charge is through a computer?

I have not needed to replace battery, so I don't know about that. I have charged the keyboard with a USB cord and wall attachment which seems to work much better than computer.

I don't believe it is replaceable. I have a cell phone charger that is compatible with the port on the keyboard, it charges quite quickly, and seems to hold a charge for a long time. Several times I've forgotten to turn the keyboard of after using it and it still worked well the next evening when I discovered out was still on.

No. It uses AA batteries and the recharable ones don't charge by computer. It's a good throw in your purse camera.

Yes, to both questions. Plus the battery last a long time after charging. One problem. When the battery goes bad, you throw it away. No way to replace it from what others have told us.

From what I can tell, once the battery starts to go it will not hold a charge but the computer will still work with a power cord. It does seem you can still get OEM replacement batteries for it, though.

The battery is replaceable if you can find a company who would still source such a battery. I found one online some years ago. There are about 7 screws that would be removed to open the bottom cover. Once the bottom was carefully opened, the battery would just unplug from a small connector on the main board. You could take that battery to a store specializing in rechargeable batteries to see if they can fashion a replacement. When the battery was new, the device would usually last through a whole day's normal use.

The battery is not replaceable, it charges during the daylight with the solar cell on top. Mine has been working great for about 2 years.

I have owned the Asus for about 3 weeks and run close to 4 hours before plugging in for charging. I do not know if the battery is replaceable but given a few minutes and a screwdriver I can solve all the world's problems.

No. The battery does not carry enough charge for a computer nor does it have any port to allow for it.

Batteries are internal ... non-removable as far as I can see. I've used both my computer and a USB wall plug to charge. Holds a charge for at least 2 months. Discharge rate is about 8 hours depending on how much volume you use.

There's definitely a builtin, rechargeable battery yes. That said, it doesn't seem to charge via USB - i.e. when I plug it into my laptop to copy files onto it, it can't get its power via the USB connection, nor will the battery charge if left plugged into the laptop for a long time. It seems like it'll charge only via the AC adapter.

There are no replaceable batteries. It charges via a USB port. Bought one for my daughter. Runs for quite a while before needing charged. Can't touch the speaker quality for the price. Make the Beats "pill" look like total junk. It either connects via Bluetooth or or a built in 1/8" cable.

I have had this for a couple of months now. Yes the battery is replaceable and it is actually a very thin cellphone like battery in the back of the handset. It charges when you set it on the base. The base plugs into the wall.

Not sure about replacement batteries. I've never had an issue. I just charge it through the USB port on my computer.

Yes you can charge the replacement either way. The issue I have had was the replacement battery only lasted 20 minutes. The company sent me another for no charge and the same thing, 20 minutes.

It is a USB device, you can charge it using any USB charger or using your computer USB port.

It is charge only. I tried connecting to my computer with it and it would only charge.

I don't see where this takes any kind of battery. It does have a port on it, you can plug in a cord from the device to the USB port on your computer to charge it.
