Forgery - easily identifiable

It was fairly easy to identify the product delivered as a forgery. Upon delivery, I noticed that the battery enstprach the product image in Amazon. In particular, lacked the Sony hologram, which is applied to the original battery and on the Amazon product photo is clearly visible.

Research on the Sony Web Page on the battery counterfeiting resulted mutatis mutandis:

"How can I tell the difference between fake and original?
Sony batteries carry the Sony logo and a hologram for security against counterfeiting. The Hologram can be found on the battery or on the packaging either "

The supplied battery, the hologram is missing (the original battery and on the Amazon product photo available). On the packaging of the supplied batteries is also not a hologram to find. Instead of a colorless embossing the Sony logo (like the original battery and on the product picture) can be found on top of a gray Aufduck.

According to the description of the Sony Web Page that is a fake.

The significantly lower battery capacity is a clear indication that it can not be a Sony original part. The supplied battery showed already after a few uses a markedly reduced capacity than the original battery. The charging time to 100% is markedly shorter than the original, the battery was exhausted after a full load already after a short use.

I've got me a Sony original battery from your dealer. This product meets the authenticity criteria described by Sony and also has a similar to the original capacity.
