    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!

    Original battery. I feel better about buying at a store where I know only genuine products are sold rather than buying online where i may get a counterfeit product. Also getting it same day in-store is faster than waiting for delivery. Works well, as it should.

    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.

    Works perfectly, I do a lot of Motorsport photography. Most events last up to 8 hours straight and I’m capturing thousands, sometimes up to 5,000 pictures in a single day. Some days even more than that, and these batteries hold up well. I have 3 total, definitely worth the $60 per battery.

    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

    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.

    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.

    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.

    The price is a bit steep considering you might need to purchase many of these. However, it does hold a good charge in most cases and it's easy to pack into the camera bag.
