Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

The AI used to provide these results are constantly improving. These results might change.

Pros

It's definitely a little pricier as it is a branded sony product, but absolutely worth the investment! The battery is far cheaper here than on the sony site. Very satisfied with the service and recommend buying from that company.

Sony nex-5n loves batteries, it drains them pretty fast. Sony * is a big battery hog and drains the original battery after about 250shots.

Works perfectly! Works as advertised and gets between 350 and 500 shots for me. Looks legit to me. The instructions even note that it could take a few tries.

Cons

This is the worst battery i've purchased in all my years as a photographer. Maybe this is a faulty battery. After charging it in an official sony charger it only charges to 70%.

Highlights

Quality

They work reliably and charge at a decent speed.

Previously i purchased "off brand" batteries and they lost their ability to hold a charge after several uses.

Seriously, the risks with lithium-ion batteries make it unwise to buy knock-offs.

My original battery was the sony and that seemed to last much longer so i am back to sony.

Price

If i have learned anything in my years, don't buy cheap stuff.

It is a lot of money for a single battery.

It cost 2-3 times what the other batteries cost.

Shipping

Came on time, and give u at least 2 hours and a half with 4k 30fps recording .
