Does it charge with a standard micro usb port (aka no proprietary cables or chargers)?

No, it requires a proprietary charger that is included with the tablet. You can search Amazon for TF701 charging cable to see the connector.

It has a proprietary adapter charger which is different from the ASUS tablet my wife has.

Nope 36pin proprietary connector. I have owned the TF101, TF300, TF700, and TF701 - none of them ever came with micro USB - they all have proprietary sync/charge cable, a microSD slot, and a micro HDMI port. The available keyboard dock will net you additional battery, full size SD slot and full size USB port - it's USB 3.0 on the TF701 and 2.0 on the older ones. But it will only charge from the 36pin connnector.

Sadly, no. It does not have a standard usb port. ASUS uses proprietary cables and chargers.

No, it is a proprietary connector. Another downside is that the charger is 15v, and a very small percentage of gadgets use this. No external battery packs or standard usb wall plugs will work with this tablet. There are workarounds with 12v batteries and multiple connectors, but it's far from ideal.

No, it is a proprietary cable. I have not seen this type of cable on any other piece of electronic equipment I own.

No, its a proprietary plug that looks very similar to an apple one (but is not the same).

Unfortunately it does not. I plugged in a Samsung 2A micro USB charger and got no 'charging' indication.

I don't think that it did. I rarely use mine and only charge it with the micro USB connection. Hope this helps you.

I do not know, but you can use any standard USB cord to charge your devices. It's standard USB out, and mini USB in to charge the device.

It has micro and regular ends for charging. I use it with my Samsung Galaxy smartphone, Samsung Mega Phablet and my Sony Xperia 10.1 tablet. Works on all for me.

It comes with a cable that is USB-to-weird-tiny-cylindrical-end (haven't seen this connection before and didn't have a need to learn the name until you posed this question). In any event, you can connect the USB end to anything to charge (e.g., wall block, laptop, etc.), like you would anything else.

No, it has a proprietary connection on the device that, with the provided cable, connects to a standard USB port.

The charging port is non-standard: it's a round peg-style charging connector that connects to any standard USB charging source. Standard micro-USB cables won't charge this device, and if you lose the proprietary cable, your out of luck until you find a way to replace it.

I charge mine through my Samsung Galaxy S4 charger! It's a standard micro USB cable that comes with it.

No need. You can charge it using the microusb port using any phone charger.

Any standard USB cable plugs into the charger. If you are trying to charge something that does not use a USB cable, you will need a different charger.

No. It only charges through USB. However, USB wall chargers are available separately.

It comes with a micro USB to standard USB cable. Charges from a powered USB cube or computer.

No. They screwed the pooch on that one. Only portable they have that doesn't charge via micro USB. That coupled with poor battery life has left me high and dry on too many occasions, and I sold mine. Using a cheap one until I find a replacement.
