Works great on both my R5 and R6 Mark II
I have 2 of these grips, as the same model is used on both my R5 and R6 Mark II. They are great with no issues with performance or fit on either body. I like the battery holder design where the batteries are held in with a locking tab on the side of the battery tray for each battery location vice friction fit like in the grip for my 6D Mark II.I'd like to point out to the reviewer who made an issue about the battery electrical contact not making contact the spring in the battery tray at each battery location (with a series of 3 photos to emphasize this fact) that this spring is NOT an electrical contact, but rather an 'ejection' spring to help remove the battery from the tray when the small lever on the side is actuated. It isn't supposed to contact the battery electrically.This grip is hefty but not heavy, provides a full-size grip, especially on my R6 Mark II where without the grip, I could almost hold the plain grip end of the camera in the palm of my hand and my hands are not huge but large. Without the grip, I had nothing to put my little finger or ring finger on to hold to.The connections from the grip to the body are much better in my opinion than I've seen on older grips for other bodies. The battery connection at the top of the grip insert is exactly like the LP-E6xxx format rather than a bunch of metal prongs sticking up and making contact. Also, the switch connection is made through a medium sized plug on the side of the grip insert into a socket in the battery compartment, again not through a bunch of metal prongs. All in all, a more robust design, I feel. The grip copies all the standard switches and control wheels as on the camera, so muscle memory is almost duplicated in the placement of the controls for those shooters who use back button focus like I do. There is a slight difference in the exact positions by the overall pattern is duplicated sufficiently enough to make it workable, in my opinion.All in all, I feel this grip is a suitable replacement for the very expensive Canon model. So far, neither body has complained or failed to work with it.

Works great, really happy with it. Perfect to pair with heavy lenses.
Wow, third party grips have really come a long way. I haven't had a battery grip on my camera since the 5D Mark II, and back then the quality of third party grips was pretty suspicious. Canon recently had a killer sale on their refurbished RF 28-70 F2 lens, but sadly that lens is extremely unbalanced on the R6mkII if you don't have a grip on it, thus why this one was purchased.This Neewer replica of the BG-R10 really surprised me with how nice it is. It pretty much feels like the R6mkII texture wise, and it fits without a hitch. I have a wrist strapped attached to it for security and have controlled it both normally and vertically and haven't had any issues with either orientation. The battery tray is interesting in that the batteries aren't on the same level, but it looks like that's the design of the BG-R10 in general and not unique to the Neewer.Overall at about 40% the price of the OEM BG-R10 this grip has been an incredible value. It feels like a legitimate OEM copy and hasn't given me any issues yet. The Canon RF 28-70 is a lot easier to handle with this on it.

Buy This and Save $$$
Took a trip to Antarctica with this. Worked VERY well. No issues. Happy I didn't spend $300 for the Canon branded battery grip. Would definitely purchase this again.

Used this on a hollywood production!
Makes shooting and handling so much faster and comfortable, I was holding out on a battery grip for a decade, i was in the dark! Get one, epsecially if you do a lot of portraits, its a must because of the 2nd trigger

GETS STUCK EASILY
I had this for about 2 weeks and the lever that opens and closes the battery slot got stuck and wouldn’t open at all. I had to pry it open with a screwdriver to rescue my batteries inside and one of them was damaged from having to force open it. The battery holder itself is very flimsy and hard to make the batteries stay in place so they probably got loose easily and that’s what made it lock up.

Perfect Budget alternative to the $300 Canon
There were mixed reviews on this. From the battery tray design, to the texture different and even jog dial quality.For the price I paid and 3 weeks of hard use, I don’t have any complaints. Yes, there is a texture difference. Very slightly. Yes, the color is slightly off compared to my 1 year old R6ii. Yes, the shutter button and dials feel different. Yes, I saved $250.It does the job. I shoot lots of basketball and needed a bit more ergonomic help when shooting portrait orientation. The ease of swapping between portrait and landscape without contorting my already arthritic wrists, make it comforting. Note: I’m no pro photographer, just an athletic booster club parent volunteer for my sons high school.Pros:CostQuality compared to costCons:And this is a minor con, the battery tray latch, feels a bit too flimsy. Any extra effort to turn the locking dial, could result in having the batteries trapped. Just be careful when turning and you’re fine.

A must have if your in the field
This has a dual function where it is a vertical grip and it is a great for extending the life of the battery. It holds two batteries so you’re getting twice the battery life, which allows good flow if you’re shooting in the field or if you have a longer shoot that you’re working on. I think some people might not like the fact that it is pretty thick and it does add some weight to the camera but the benefit far out ways the drawback.
