Bought this extra battery just-in-case, but haven't used it. Although its the same as the one my camera came with, and that one works great and has a pretty long battery life!

The battery performs well. I've just needed to buy tons of them with my Sony a7II. That get's a little pricey, but with the manufacturer brand you know you'll get solid performance.

This is more compact than refuel charger. Charges quickly. Directly into wall outlet so I can use spare battery in camera while the other is charging. Good product.

Got this to replace my 12-year-old battery I had previously for my camera. So far it holds a charge nicely. Went on a 6 day vacation and did not have to charge it once. Very happy with this so far!

Works and charges well. Last long enough when used. The only but is it would be better if the camera comes with separate battery charger rather than charging with camera

Have two other off-brand batteries for my Sony RX10 II (mirrorless camera with electronic viewfinder known for chewing up battery power). They seem to lose a charge rather fast. Decided to buy a Sony brand at 3x the price before a recent vacation. It seemed to hold a charge longer than the off-brands. I could get through the day without changing batteries. Maybe just because it is newer, cannot really say. If you do not mind changing batteries, maybe two fully charged off-brand batteries would be equally good.

Great battery, but it should be cheaper. Definitely an up-charge for the brand name, but I do feel good about purchasing batteries from Sony because they definitely hold up better than third party... So... you get what you pay for I suppose.

Only buy authentic batteries from the manufacturer for your devices. This is no exception to that rule. It's a great battery and great design. But it costs a lot.

Genuine Sony OEM Battery, what more can you say.

These are expensive. Buying at full MSRP, I am not sure, however on discount or if they come with your other purchase as a bonus, these are as sweet as they can be. No worries on them exploding inside your camera while operating or charging, and as advertised mAH and shots you can expect out of a charge.
These can barely last 300~400 shots in most sony cameras which is actually quite pitiful, but that is not the battery's fault. Sony's camera in combination with the EVF, LCD, and all the other electrical internals consume huge amount of power out of these.
I would recommend only if the price is right.
