Is Best Buy down?
Partially degradedchecked 9 minutes ago
Best Buy is answering our probes, but its API is running at least 3.9x its 7-day median from US-East. Everything else we check answered at its usual speed.
As of Oct 19, 2026, 9:19 PM UTC, RealUptime's checks of Best Buy passed in all 2 regions that returned a reading.
Our checks of Best Buy did not fail from two or more distant regions in the 60 days we have checked it (since Aug 20, 2026). This does not show Best Buy works for users.
This reading is from our two US regions.

Best Buy's online store serves United States and Canadian shoppers, so we check it from our US regions only.
Best Buy publishes no status feed we can read, so the only reading here is our check reading on the left.

Check your own site while you wait on Best Buy
Watching an outage above does not tell you whether your own connection or site is also having a problem. Enter your own URL for one live check, right now, no signup. This checks the site you enter, not Best Buy. It cannot diagnose Best Buy's own systems.
What we measured, function by function
Best Buy answers on more than one surface, and they can fail apart. Each row is one surface, checked from the same regions. The verdict above follows the api row, because that is the surface we treat as this service's own; a failure on any other row is a partial outage, not a full one.

These are unverified reports from people using Best Buy, counted separately from what our own probes measure. Anyone can file one, no account is needed, and the region on a report is chosen by the person filing it. We never open, extend or close an outage in our record based on report volume: only our own measurements do that. We have not received any reports for Best Buy yet, which is not evidence that nothing is wrong.
Recent probe events
No probe events on record yet for Best Buy.
check entries are our own probes' readings; declared entries are the vendor's. How this check works
We have been measuring Best Buy since August 20, 2026. We show nothing from before that date, and we never add an outage we did not observe ourselves, from any source.

How our checks compare with Best Buy's stated SLA
At or above your target
Our checks of Best Buy failed for none over the last 30 days, which is 100% uptime by our checks. A 99.9% target allows 43 minutes over that period.
Our checks show no gap in this period. That does not rule out one you saw.
These figures come from our own checks of one public endpoint per service. They are not the service's real uptime. This is computed from our own checks, not from Best Buy's SLA instrumentation. Their contract is normally measured against their own systems, with their own exclusions and a claim window, so their figure and ours will differ. Use this to start the conversation and ask for their number. It is not legal advice and it is not a determination of what you are owed.
What we check
What our check can and cannot see
A pass means the service's servers answered with the sign-in refusal they give any request that is not signed in. It does not show that sign-in works or that anything behind the sign-in wall responds.
