You can tell % through the book the same, but you don't have a sense of how many pages you have left on the K1 since the progress bar is the same length on the book page regardless of length of the book.

i.e., you know you're half way through, but can't tell if you have 100 pages or 500 pages left just by glancing at the progress bar. You have to know how many locations there are, and unfortunately it doesn't list that like the K2.
