Bought for charging a spare battery and provide meanwhile use the device It's shabby from Sony not to provide this accessory to 5.95 euros I love the side of the standard micro USB plug, I have only one cable for my Handheld GPS, GPS my bike, my Sony RX100 M3, this Sony my charger, my Samsung phone ... short of that standard I can plug anywhere (auto, wall, computer) to charge. Only subtlety, the battery is placed "backwards" in the visible face black and green cad face down box ... but that's a detail
