Where most third party grips have a lock feature to lock the buttons on the grip this one has another on/off switch that over rides the camera body. It is very annoying and is easily bumped which will turn off the camera. You will also often hit buttons on the grip inadvertently because of the lack of a lock feature. Very poor design. Battery compartment Feels less sturdy than other third party grips.

Had no issues with it. For the price it’s very good. You can’t tell the difference between Sony and this!!

Not as good a fit as the Sony but literally less than 1/4 the price! So far, it works perfect with the Sony Z and RAVPower Savior series (RP-BC018) batts. If you're super OCD, the slight difference in color and fit may bother you. Other than that it performs like a champ! No complaints so far.

TODO...los controles y botones están hechos de plástico de muy buena calidad y no añade demasiado pesoEl mando a distancia no es infrarrojo y no es necesario estar muy cerca de la cámara para accionarla

If this did work with my camera, I'm sure I would have loved it. The build quality is pretty close to Sony's. Every time I tried to use this, it gave me an incompatibility battery error and I couldn't use even get into the menu system. After I went to Meike's website, I noticed it didn't list the A7IV.

I've owned another one of the Meike battery grips for an earlier version of the Sony Alpha 7 camera. It was considerably cheaper feeling than the Sony version, but workable. Batteries were a bit loose-fit but worked OK, so I gave this one a try for the A7R IV.It was dead on arrival -- verified fully charged batteries that work in the camera body, and tried many combinations of the 6 charged batteries that I have, nothing worked to get the battery grip to supply power to the camera.Aside from not working, this version of the Meike feels quite a bit less sturdy/quality than even the Meike that I was using for the earlier Sony A7 camera. The on/off switch seems *really* flimsy and almost a bit loose. The option buttons feel quite cheap, and the navigation joystick is also cheap feeling, and seems a bit like it is mounted a bit off-center. The battery sockets were also fairly loose.Overall, I'd say avoid, if you can get a working version. I'm personally not opposed to using a cheaper feeling alternative for this kind of functionality, but the quality seems much lower than it was in the past for very similar equipment by the same company.

Unreliable makes camera crash, stops video recording mid recording or phantom presses buttons. Very unreliable.

For the money, this cannot be matched. the price of the Sony grip is...obscene. The grip seems well made and even matches the texture feel of my Sony A7RIV. The only difference is the switch that powers off the unit. It's not a lockout function like the Sony...but so what. When you start...you turn it on. When you are done shooting...you turn it off. I can't think of any reason to spend more on the Sony version. I love this thing!

I see no reason to buy OEM in this case. The grip works perfectly with the A7rIV and costs hundreds less. The remote works fine as well. I do not removing the battery door of my camera to install it, but that is the case with the OEM grip so that is not a negative for this product.

I was unsure about this product almost spent the extra money on the Sony, I am glad I didn’t. This thing has been rock solid! Nice feel, very responsive, overall the quality is great! 10/10 would recommend!
