Customers enjoy the Vindicator 2.0 Laptop Gaming Backpack's ample size and extensive storage options, praising its high-quality construction and protective features. Many appreciate the comfortable design and substantial padding, although some find the weight to be a minor drawback when fully loaded. The backpack's capacity to hold a laptop and other items is also frequently highlighted.
With an investment in a gaming laptop made I figured it would be a good idea to also invest in a carry bag that offered more than just portability. This bag offers both protection and comfort. There is a super padded compartment for the laptop which eases my mind as well as multiple well designed / layed out compartments to use for all the extras I need to carry with me; external drive, USB cable, power cord and all that jazz. Very happy with this bag.

Pack looks like it is bullet proof. Tons of protection for my HP laptop even without an individual sleeve. Got this backpack on sale and don't think I'll need anything else for years. Plenty of room in every compartment. Can fit monstrous laptops. Fits all my school books, a mouse, controller, headset, and more. Not a scratch on the laptop either.

I purchased this backpack to transport my Alienware 17R4 laptop and the associated gear I carry with it. The backpack is well made and fits very nicely with the laptop for a cohesive aesthetic. There are 3 major compartments within the bag and those are further segregated with pockets and dividers for all of your smaller gear. There is a pouch inside the bag meant to contain your power supply and that works nicely, eliminating that wire clutter. I current have my Alienware 17 R4 laptop and power supply, Razer DeathAdder mouse, and Sennheiser GAME Zero headset case in the bag and it isn't even beginning to fill the available space. I feel I could comfortably carry another sizable laptop, a tablet such as iPad, as well as several more mice and headsets in an organized setup. More reasonably though, you might wish to use some of the extra space to carry a change of clothes and toiletries in the likely event you will gaming at a friends house well into the morning with your complete gaming travel package. I was a bit hesitant at first to buy a Alienware branded bag to house my expensive gaming gear given that it tends to advertise you are hauling some desirable goods. That is a choice you will have to make for yourself when considering where you plan to travel with it. Personally, I am going to friends houses where I don't anticipate being among thieves. Having this tailor made solution for hauling my gaming gear was worth it to me and I really do love the way it looks. It's got function in spades, with a bonus of being very stylish as well. I picked the bag up on sale for around $87 which I think is perfectly fair for what you are getting. The target demographic is very much owners of large Alienware laptops, so it likely won't be for everyone.
