    Great for video editors that carry hard drives

    It has several pockets and is light weight yet sturdy enough for me to carry my laptop and at least 3-4 hard drives, my charger, headphones, a notebook, snacks and other ends and odds for every day work use and traveling. The only downside is I noticed the strap started to slightly flay after wearing it the first time but it isn't that bothersome - it just looks like little hairs sticking out on the edges. Just more of an aesthetics con but overall love the functionality of it! It's also got a simple style and feels professional. My 16-inch macbook pro fits in it perfectly for those of you who were wondering if your laptop would fit. I also love that the laptop compartment zips all the way down the side on one side if you needed that type of access. Haven't used the backpack straps yet but might on my next international trip. I love that it's secretly hidden in the back zipper compartment. Can't even feel it while you have the shoulder strap on.

    Perfect what I need to carry using a better strap

    My work entails music, & all my music is electronic. I carry multiple devices with me when I have to be prepared for the unexpected - typically 2 laptops, a tablet, & sometimes also a chromebook. The padded divider houses 1 laptop, a neoprene zip pouch (I had for a laptop) houses my tablet & 1 page tuner pedal & protects the other tablet & chromebook set on either side of that pouch. The 2 outer pockets (+ a hidden zip front on 1 of them) give me plenty of room for styli, pen & pencil, spare batteries, another page turning pedal, cords for recharging phone & smart watch, losenges, & more. The only thing of poor design on this is the shoulder strap. (I'm carrying at least 1 guitar & my electronics everywhere I go for music, so the strap is a necessity.) The plastic hooks on the strap gave way once & everything fell onto grass...no damage done. I thought I'd just put the clip on poorly. When it happened again, the clip was broken. I ended up getting a Husky super padded strap from Home Depot which really helps me carry that much weight in comfort & has heavy duty metal clips. I've been using a second bag of the exact same style & color (a pup chewed the first one to pieces) & have gotten about 6 months out of it so far with virtually no wear to show. The full pockets extend a bit & do bump things, so I make sure I don't have anything fragile in them; they do get white marks on them from bumping into white painted surfaces (walls, doors) as I'm exiting or returning, but nothing significant or distracting.

    Great Computer Bag All Around

    This is a great computer bag! It has all the room for my tech and power adapters! It even has plenty of room for my headset that is in a big case itself! I love how this bag has multiple ways to carry and still look fashionable at the same time! I dont review many products but this one I definitely recommend!
