Sony VGC3EM Vertical Grip for α9
Features Equal vertical and horizontal operation VG-C3EM body design makes it almost equally as easy to control the camera in vertical and horizontal positions, thanks to keys and controls that are nearly the same as those on the back of the camera body. For example, the vertical grip provides a Multi Selector for fast selection of an AF point.
Grip shape for assured hold VG-C3EM provides a grip shape, allowing you to get an enhanced hold for confident shooting in vertical position that is virtually the same as that in horizontal position.
Highly rigid magnesium exterior Made of magnesium alloy, the same as α9, this grip is highly rigid and lightweight.
USB power charging via camera body You can charge batteries loaded in the vertical grip using the camera’s USB port without detaching the grip from the camera body.

Quality is great, materials and fit top-notch.
Since I make a good part of my living with the camera now, I decided not to mess around with the cheaper units.
I still have just one battery and that's not a problem (the camera & grip sense which of the two slots is loaded). A second cell will double the already ample battery life.
I did deduct one star for value as the OEM unit is not exactly a bargain. I also deducted one star for durability for the relative fragility of the thin plastic battery tray. I left both at 4 stars as the build seems otherwise decent and the the money does seem to get you a smooth & flawless integration.
The only reason why I'm really sticking with this is because of my desire to keep my camera "all Sony". Other than that, I'd highly recommend a knock off brand.
Watch out for knockoffs if buying used...another vendor sent me a fake!
