That why this camera has low price in market. If you want purchase mirrorles scamera I would suggest Fuji X-A3. This one could charge directly from the canera and micro usb.

Yes, you are not able to charge the camera via USB.

You could read the manual available in here :

Just saw olympus promotion. so adding into here.

In this case u will have total 2 battery (1 from the box and 1 from the Promo. Orginal battery cost around $50++

* The lens price would be cheaper than this promotion if you buy from TKfoto, Alan Photo, MScolor, Cathay photo store. This are Chain store price (Courts, Best Danki)
