Does what it says on the box.
Great item which serves its purpose and no worrying about battery life, adds a bit of extra weight to the camera, but hey, horses for courses

A9 Battery Grip
Purchased a couple of weeks ago to add the second battery to my A9 as well as the grip.

Completely rectifies any ergonomic issues.
Some people were never keen on the “cramped” ergonomics of the A7III, A9 and A7R III with the smaller grip. Your pinky finger awkwardly dangled off the end and big lenses made the cameras feel very front heavy and didn’t handle great. That said, I love how those cameras are almost pocketable. The vertical battery grip completely resolves most ergonomic issues with that generation of cameras. The camera is beautifully balanced with heavy lenses, your pinky finger sits perfectly in a smooth groove, and it just transforms how the camera handles. The extra lower grip is also excellent to hold with your other hand to steady the camera to ensure sharp images at lower shutter speeds. Made from mostly magnesium with plastic ends, it feels very well made, solid, good in the hand and looks great on the camera with seamless integration. For me, a grip is an essential accessory for these small cameras and gives incredible versatility to transform a very compact body into a solid camera for use with big lenses.

Does the job
The main advantage of this grip is obviously better purchase on the body if you have bigger hands, or are using bigger high quality lenses,to help balance out the camera, ability to comfortably use the camera in portrait orientation, and of course have incredible battery duration for a shoot. The grip feels high quality with plenty of duplicate buttons from the main body. The only downside is of course, losing the small compact nature of the Sony Alpha bodies and increased weight.

Functional add on
Purchased to help balance when using 70-200mm GM lens and increase power availability. Does the job well. Con- a bit expensive!

Great accessory!
I bought this mainly for the extra battery power which is excellent, and the ease of taking photos in portrait position. Only downside is that it adds extra weight.

Better handling
Great for a better grip for your camera. Easy to attach and it gives you two batteries instead of one.

Nice grip, wish it had more buttons
Nice grip to get a bit better grip on the camera, but I wish it was more like the a77ii/a99ii grip. I miss a few buttons every once in a while
