if the battery says it is a sony product, I presume it is made by sony.i have bought these batteries and they work fine, one warning however. they only charge up to 90%, but im ok with that.

The battery that I received was junk. It took one charge and would not work anymore. Stay away from this junk.

The one I ordered and received from MLC Distribution, Inc. was a genuine Sony battery, and the only steps involved were powering down the computer, removing the old one, popping the new one into place, and powering back up. It's the off-brand ones that require the BIOS patches, if I understand correctly. It seems as though some sellers are claiming to sell the genuine Sony product, but are shipping out third-party batteries of dubious quality. As I said, the one I ordered from MLC Distribution, Inc. was genuine and was identical to the battery my computer originally shipped with. However, check the back of the battery when it arrives. If you don't see it say SONY somewhere on it, I would advise sending it back and getting a full refund.

Yes, they both use the Sony NP-BG1 battery. (Or equivalent generic battery. I have had very good results with the Wasabi Power version of the battery, available on Amazon.com with an external charger for a very reasonable price.)

Yes, It is but I would not waste your time with this battery as they are cheap Chinese knockoffs and last about an hour.

It is a replacement battery for my sony vizio laptop. It is not made by Sony. Made by someone in China. I'm not looking at it at the moment. Seems to be working/charging fine after a month. Can't say I would recommend it or not though. Haven't had it long enough.

The battery is not an original Sony but Works good with my Sony A300 câmera. I do not know it it fits your câmera. Please check with the seller.

Sorry, but I do not know. I searched using our camera's maker and model, and found it on this vendor's list as being a replacement for the original Sony battery. If you don't see your camera on the list, you might try contacting the vendor directly to verify if this would fit, and if not, to see if they might carry the one that you need.

They do make an 18650 battery. Here is their data sheet: http://www.sony.com.cn/products/ed/battery/download.pdf

No, its an internal battery, which can be replaced by Sony or a qualified technician.

The battery I bought was shown with Nikon packaging and logos. It appears to be Nikon made and no problems.

You don't. My package has has a part number B0076HQW4S New. It says it is an original Sony VGP - BPS22 Bat Extended Capacity. It lasts for less than one year. It is no longer holding much charge. I gave up on Sony products because quality is no longer any good.

It is apparently a genuine Sony battery, and I have checked it very carefully and cannot find any reason to suspect a fake. Do note, however, that my RX-10 camera came with a version of this battery that is made in Japan, whereas this Sony battery is made in China. No big deal. I suspect Sony does that intentionally, sourcing replacement batteries from a different factory than the ones they ship with a camera. The ampere-hour ratings for typical usage are the same though.

It defines it as such on the face of the battery. I would recommend a Sony InfoLithium battery.

The battery that I purchased from GizGalaxy is counterfeit. The package, and battery say Sony, but pay close attention to the battery. The one I received says "SONY COPP." instead of "SONY CORP.", like the original battery that I purchased back in 2000. Sony does not make mistakes like this on their products. This is most likely a Chinese knockoff being sold as a genuine product.

I don't know the exact answer to your question, but when I purchased these on Amazon in Dec. 2012 (from "Best Deal Supply"), the listing said "use by 2021." However, the batteries that were delivered were all stamped "use by 2022" and appear to be genuine Sony batteries. I will have used them up long before 2021, so I don't know if Sony is being unrealistic in their date.

It's my understanding that the battery is proprietary to Sony, but once it is purchased from them, it is easy to install. No problem whatsoever.

It's an additional battery, however, I was disappointed when I realized that the battery is their brand "focus," not a Sony brand battery as pictured. The Sony camera case is not what I would describe as semi-hard and it's also not as pictured.
