At least they didn’t change the name to “Best Gore”.

That's the best they could come up with? That's seriously horrible. Not at all appealing to the eye.

Why are they just now jumping on the 2010s minimalist trend when it's starting to go out of style lmao

Best Buy is a supremely annoying company anyway. You walk in the place and immediately get attacked by "blue shirts" who incessantly ask "how ya doin?" or "is everything OK?" . ::)
The very last time I went into the local Burst Buy, I was accosted by like 5 or 6 guys. Eventually the manager came around with the requisite "how are YOU doin?". I then told him "I am doing terrible, your annoying salespeople will not leave me alone. Besides if I had a question about the product they likely will not be able to answer it anyway. If one more person comes up to me today and asks how I am doing, I'm walking out the door and never coming back." >:(
About 5 seconds later here comes a "blue shirt" who gives me the standard greeting. I told the manager "I warned you" and I walked out. Never came back. Place went out of business about a year later. ;D

It is in a lot of design circles. Bland flat design à la Windows 10 is has been king for about 8 years now, but good designers get bored of doing the same exact thing over and over again. Emphasis on good because most just follow trends that are a few years old. The mid 2010s was when we first saw any major reaction against flat design (minimalism), with the birth of semi-flat design. In 2017, we saw the emergence of mixed design styles: a contrast between maximalism and minimalism. Vibrant gradients, complex textures, 3D/2D design, and extended typefaces are becoming more popular. Gritty/glitch design is emerging too.

Well I like it better than the old one tbh, the harsh black-bright yellow contrast was just awful to the eyes.

How was the original logo portrayed?

Maybe a better logo would be the words "Best Buy" contained within a hexagon. You see a lo of logos like that lately.

It looks like they're still using the old one in Canada. Even the Canadian website (bestbuy.ca) is using the old one.
