    The batteries work pretty well. They don't last too long. But they were a good help for when I needed them

    These are ok for basic batteries, but not long lasting for heavy usage items. They are fine in a pinch.

    These batteries are okay for devices that dont require much juice. Seem less dependable for tougher assignments.

    I bought these batteries just to have some handy at home and the price wasn’t too bad. Since I work from home I use my wireless mouse quite a bit and AA batteries are a must. Well these do not last long at all compared to the name brand batteries. I would say they lasted about a month! I will not be repurchasing these batteries.

    Disappointed in the life of these batteries. Previously I have used Duracell our wildlife camera and did not expect Best Buy Essential batteries to live up to a major name brand. Our Garde-Pro camera uses 8 AA batteries. The Duracells last about a month, the first batch of Best Buy Essentials last 7 days. Same settings, like for like comparison. Will not buy again.

    I brought these batteries thinking I would get a better deal due to the batteries being a best buy brand, I was truly wrong. I can only listen to a cd player at work and these batteries barely gives me a listening time of 2 days. I have gone thru this pack of batteries in less than a month time, Needless to say I will not be purchasing this band ever again.
