    Great protection for your laptop, I’m using it for a M17 and plenty of storage for headphones, mice, keyboards etc. Well made backpack and worth the price if you’re going to put your $2000+ laptop in something.

    I started to look for a case to put my new Alienware 17" in and found very few choices after I almost purchased one too small several times. This case has room for 2 or 3 laptops that size but I filled mine with all my portable electronic gear. Drone and accessories, gopro/acces.,DJI osmo gimbal, and all the chargers batteries and cords to go with it all. And this pack looks like it will last the rest of my life and I am hard on backpacks. I am glad I got one of these before they disappeared,

    This bag is amazing. Hold my aread 51m r2, 12.9 ipad, external keyboard, mouse and headphones. External HD and other gear without issue. It is made very good (made by mobile edge) and they have been around years and make great bags. Catch it on sale at Best Buy every couple weeks for around $119.

    so.. if you also have the Alienware Area-51m then you know how much of a pain in the rear it is to find a backpack that will fit the very awesome.. but awkwardly size of 17.3 inches and also being twice as thick as most laptops on account of its desktop parts.. but this backpack is the answer! it PERFECTLY fits the Area-51m and then you still have SO much storage space left over!! there are well designed pockets and the materials used are so nice! i just love this backpack! even if you dont have a big laptop and you are looking for a good pack that has a LOT of storage space this is still perfect! i highly reccomend!

    I love this backpack!! It has so many pockets, it has a certain spot where I can put my Alienware laptop, headsets, wires, and chargers. It also has a big pocket where I can put my Xbox in.

    Been using this great backpack every day. Very well designed with secure pockets to hold tablets, a laptop, my CD player, batteries and even my portable printer. The zipper on this Alienware laptop is better than the older Alienware backpacks too. So well done!

    Alienware Backpack/Laptop Bag

    Very roomy. Plenty of pockets to keep things away from the laptop that could scratch it. It is, however, a very big laptop bag/backpack... VERY big. I am only 5'4" so it hangs down very low on me. Regardless, the bag both functions and looks very good. I definitely recommend it to comete your Alienware laptop look if you have the cash. It is over priced by about $50.

    Overall the backpack looks nice, however wears down easily. I was disappointed that it only lasted about 6 months, especially for the price. Now I have to buy another backpack.
