Does this hold a charge as well as the OEM battery?

I have not scientifically measured, but they seem to last like the original. So far good. It's a must to have a couple of extra batteries as this camera use a lot of power probably because it has quick recovery; thus, you tend to take more shots.

If not "excatly the same" its very close. And performs well in every other manner.

It works just like the OEM, so it will show the accurate charge. Mine got down to the last bar today while taking a ton of pictures.

I will say the battery works as well if not better than my original Samsung battery that came with my phone and charges quickly. I was only going to use the TrendON battery as a spare but i actually use it often interchanging all the batteries and i read that just helps keep the batteries longer. The length the battery keeps a charge is the same.

I believe it is, mine does. I'm having problems keeping it charged. Doesn't seem to hold it's charge, unfortunately.

I charge my original battery with no issue whatsoever, and no impact on battery performance. This does not charge a battery as fast as the original OEM charger, but you will not be disappointed. I keep 1 battery in the charger at all times, a fully charged spare battery in my bag, and of course, one in the phone. If I end up using my spare while I am out, when I get home I just swap them and have a fully charged battery ready to go.

it will last the same amount as the org. Battery. No problems from this battery

Yes and it works like it's brand spanking new. I should know as I now have 7 batteries, 5 of them OEM and it lasts just as long as the other New OEM I have. :)

So far I have been very happy with this battery. Lasts much longer than the original. My older original battery was about completey dead by the end of a day. I do not use my phone constantly all day, but with this battery I have yet to reach a half charge at the end of a day.

Yes, in fact it works very well. Seems to last longer on a charge that the original battery.

I purchased this a replacement. It holds a longer charge than the regular battery. Not much to say. It was cheaper than the brand name and works great. Normally those are the twos things to look at.

yes. I even got some for this. But I have had my camera up & operating since Dec. and the original battery is still strong!

I have two of these batteries. The OEM battery that came with the camera is four years old and easily lasts five times longer than this battery. The battery is fine and the price is good, but I make sure I have a spare with me at all times, which is something I never had to do with the OEM battery.

I am using this battery as a replcement for the original one. This battery has been great, keeping its charge, unlike the original one. I do not use my camera often so it has been charged only a few times but it has a indicator to help know how much power is remaining. The price I paid, like the others who answered, was a great deal - I would hope to be as successful if I need to purchase one agin in the future.

The battery I bought charges fine. And has been working fine though I do see that the charge is already not lasting as long.

Yes, I believe it is! I had the same question myself after an experience with one that was not genuine ... This battery has charged, held a charge, and functioned in my Sony camera in the exact manner as the original.

My experience with this battery is that it has not held up as good as the one that came with the camera. It doesn't seem to hold a charge nearly as long as the OEM, even when not in the camera. My suggestion would be to purchase a Sony battery.

Same answer as Michael. This battery works (x several months now) and fits (barely; it was slightly larger than the OEM).
