    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.

    Perfect companion for the Alienware 17 R4

    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.

    Great backpack for 17” R4

    I was looking for a backpack that would fit my Alienware 17” R4. After a great deal of searching, this was the only one that would fit my laptop. It isn’t really my style, but it works. My biggest complaint is the lack of a decent water bottle storage area. The net that comes out of the bag is extremely tight, even for small bottles. There is not a great deal of space, but it is designed well. The quality is tremendous. Despite not being my style, I am quite happy with my purchase.

    This is an amazing bag. Huge but it does what it needs to do. It fits my 17R4. There are a ton of pockets and sections for storage, and the cool little pouch that's included is perfect for the charging cable, mouse, etc. It has padding in the bottom of the bag so that when you set it down you don't have to worry about it being hurt or dented and which I really like about this backpack. I highly recommend this to anyone that is looking for a good long lasting bag.

    That’s the only backpack I found in the store which fits 17’ Alienware. It’s well made with durable fabric, strong enough to hold both my 15’ MacBook and the 17’ Alienware.

    There is a reason why Alienware is known as a top quality brand and why people think it is over priced. You get what you pay for and this is probably the best laptop bag I have ever owned. I can hold my R2 17 inch laptop, head phones, power brick, and mouse with extra room for my iPad Pro 10.5 inch. I also have room for pens, paper notebooks, USB sticks, and my laptop air flow fan if I needed. The bottom is leather and the straps look very sturdy, I do not foresee the straps being torn anytime soon with this backpack. The Alienware symbol makes it look cool too and the hard layer is even more protection. Everyone will know you are carrying an Alienware laptop inside.

    Seems to be the only bag that contains my aw17r4 at this price. Generally a very well made bag, looks pretty cool as well. With the laptop, I can also carry a keyboard, a cooling pad and mouse. Got price matched to 80. The only problem is that everybody will know you're carrying an Alienware.

    Great backpack for carrying

    This backpack is really well made and beautiful. I always use it to carry my Alienware because all of my others backpacks does not fit my laptop. The only "bad" thing about this backpack is that it can fit a lot of things and the laptop by itself + backpack is already heavy. So, when I get the backpack full, I can't really carry it.

    It is a comfortable backpact that fits this large laptop -- still a little snug but the only case that I found that can carry it. I like the accessory pack for the power supply and you can cram a lot of stuff into the laptop and the straps are pretty comfortable.

    There are 3 sizes of this bag, but I needed the biggest one for my Alienware 17. It is a awesome looking back and the huge laptop fits in it nicely with room for other items besides the power supply. The pockets and materials are really all that amazing to be honest, however if you can get this for a reasonable price or use rewards certs on it, it would go nicely with the gaming laptop. Ultimately I'm a sucker for matching brands and appearances haha!

    I have a G751JY Asus gaming laptop that will not fit in regular laptop backpacks due to its size. I bought this and it fits inside perfectly with room to spare. It has room for everything else you need. The build quality is excellent

    Great quality, and it was on sale. I bought my first gaming laptop and had to have a way to protect it and I wanted a backpack, so when I go places it can come with me. You will not be disappointed if you get one.

    This backpack is comfortable to wear. It holds everything I need to carry, ie. binders etc. along with my computer. I wish it had a little more padding on the bottom to protect the edge of my computer more when I set it down. It has several pockets that seem superfluous because they don't accommodate anything I would carry. But all in all this is a good pack.
