Expensive
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.It's been a long time since I purchased a camera battery. I was surprised at how expensive they've become! Still had to purchase though. Would have preferred a much less expensive alternative and am happy I don't have to do this very often.

Low battery life
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I was aware that this was an issue, but needed extra batteries for traveling out of the country. Not pleased with the limited battery life, so I carry 3 extra batteries. Would not recommend the Sony mirror less a6000 as a result.

Necessity
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Affordable spare battery for my sony a7ii. The battery life doesn't last long, especially shooting video so having a spare or two is a necessity.

Goes quick
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Make sure to always recharge your battery after shooting, even if it is not dead. The battery does not last as long as I'd hoped, but I always carry a spare, just in case.

I will Never buy OPEN BOX again!
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This battery was supposed to be exactly the same as a new one, it was open boxed. I was told the customer likely bought the wrong size. But it was grimy in feel, and instead of coming with 70% or more power, it was totally drained. So I had to spend hours charging it before using it. Obviously someone returned a used battery instead of a new one.

Didn't hold a charge
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Fully charged the battery before use. Used the camera for 54 jpeg shots and the battery was dead. Re-charged and had the same experience. Perhaps just a faulty battery but be sure to check them out fully so their is time to return it if necessary.
