(More customer reviews)Like all extended batteries, you can not expect it to fit the design of your laptop perfectly. I'm happy Sony at least made it extend downwards, keeping the laptop in a downward like angle, as opposed to making extend backwards. I prefer the Vaio P be on a little angle, besides, I think it makes it easier to type, as opposed to having the battery extend backwards and not allowing the Vaio P to fit into one of it's designed cases. ...yes, even with this battery, the Vaio P will fit comfortably into any of the cases Sony has designed for it, even the leather one.
As for performance, and again, like any battery out there, don't expect it to last as long as Sony promises, unless you really dim the screen to like nothing, turn off the wireless, speakers, etc... By dimming the screen to about 3 bars (still comfortable for me, the Vaio P has a SUPER bright LCD) and wireless off, I get about 6 hours, with the same settings plus a Sprint USB Internet Card I get about 5 1/2 hours.
Before I purchased the battery, I Googled images, but found none showing the battery on the laptop, so I'll post images of what that looks like, for future shoppers. ...as well as images of what the laptop will look like while in the leather Sony case with this battery on it.
I was iffy about giving it 5 stars, since the battery is a bit heavy (not SUPER heavy, but I'm sure it could be lighter), but it does it's job pretty well, and it's just a battery (can't believe I'm reviewing a battery LOL).
