Is there any sort of meter on the screen for remaining battery life in the keyboard?

No there isnt, and keyboard battery didnt last long. I dont see this as na issue since i almost only use it as a Tablet.

No the only indicator for the dock batterie is the small light near the power switch. I've searched and searched because I can't believe asus would put in such a simple but useful feature :/ but they didn't you just have to live with it

Honestly not that long... laptop might say it has about 4 hrs left of battery life 30 mins later it will say 1hr30mins left

The keyboard has it's own battery so It doesn't draw from the connected devices battery. Personally I see no difference in battery life when I have the keyboard connected and when I don't. If there is any difference its negligible

There is an indicator bar on the right side of the front screen. As the battery is used the bar decreases. Unplug the dock from power and check the indicator to see how much battery there is.

Not very long and the keyboard does stay charged for a very long time. I've been using my keyboard for a few weeks without needing to recharge.

I have not used the keyboard continually since receiving it. I use is everyday for about 15 to 30 minutes. I have not needed to charge it for about 2 weeks. I accidentally left it on all night and a couple days ago and it still hasn't died. As a result, I would guess that it will work all day without a problem. I hope that answers your question.

The battery lasted multiple times of me using this keyboard for several hours. You have to be careful to turn it off when it is done. I haven't had to replace the batteries yet, though, and I have used it maybe 5 times for 2-4 hours each.

Had mine for about 3 months, charged it about half-dozen times. System Preference has an icon when you load up the Logitech Software that will indicate how low the battery is. IIRC that software will also tell you, if you forget, to recharge it. I simply plug mine into the USB port on the keyboard, and continue to use but a couple hours later it's all good. I got mine at half the price of Apple's and most pleased. Took the Magic Pad back.

I've had an issue with the letters not showing up after I pressed the keyboard. I realized that either the battery was low/dying or I was covering the 'red light' signal at the top when I was holding it.

I've had my keyboard for several months and have not charged it yet. However, the keyboard has an off on button which I turn off after each use.

Not with da keyboard directly. The keyboard does not have dat function directly. Maybe if u can find a software indicator or a alternative system function you'll be find. Otherwise, you simply have to 'Wing-It" when it comes to knowing. Hope this helps

I hadn't really tested battery life, so I fully charged the tablet, then set up the power controls to never turn off the display or PC. Then I set it down and let it run. So far it has been 6 1/2 hours and it's still going. The battery indicator says 11% left for 38 more minutes. I suppose the power consumption might have been somewhat higher if I were streaming something, maybe I'll try that test after this, but it definitely has a good battery life. This test was run with WiFi on but without the bluetooth keyboard.

Plug in the usb cable into the keyboard and inot a computer that is turned on. Wait for the light to change color or go off. If the keyboard is low on power, it has taken mine 4 hours to recharge..

Yes, there is an easy-to-find button on the face of the keyboard. I leave mine off when not in use, and when I approach my computer I do not need additional light in order to locate the 'on' button.

I normally charge keyboard when not using the device. Thus, I have not encountered that problem.

The "LED indicator" is just a little light under a tiny panel under the on/off switch. On mine, a blue light comes on when it needs a charge. When I plug it in, a little red light comes on. When it's done, it goes out. Here's the thing, though; the keyboard sleeps when not in use for a couple of minutes extending the battery life for so long that I have only charged mine twiceand one of those two times was when I first received it. The battery life is incredible.

Yes, but it does not infer with view. However I stopped using mine and my screen stays clean, without keyboard marks.
