    I am loving it so far. The backpack has a very high quality and very sturdy. This can also store quite many things including a notebook, pens, and other accessories for your laptop. I would highly recommend it!

    Stylish yet functional

    After having to upgrade to new 15.6" laptop for work, I discovered that I needed a new laptop bag to accommodate this larger computer. But because I wanted more of an attache/briefcase type of bag as opposed to the typical techie backpack computer bag commonly available, I felt that I was out of luck in finding a laptop attache that I could transport both my paper files and my laptop in while not looking like I was still in school. I have been a user of the Solo brand of computer bags for years, so finding this bag at Best Buy with the mature, i.e., business appropriate design and style was quite fortuitous. While the loading capacity of this bag is limited as far as packing papers, tablet, and laptop with accessories goes, this bag is more that able to carry a reasonable sized load. I can easily load my work laptop, two reasonably sized legal sized file folders and the charging brick for my laptop in this bag with no problems. Let's face facts, the bulk of your work product is going to be on your laptop anyway, so needing to have the capacity to carry a huge number of physical documents is not a priority. That having been said, I would refrain from carrying in this bag both your tablet and laptop with a substantial number of physical documents ( for example two or more books or really massive amounts of paper files) in order to avoid risking damage to the screens of your electronics. I have been able to use one of the exterior pockets to store my 8" Verizon Ellipsis tablet in its Zagg bluetooth keyboard case while carrying my 7" Samsung Barnes and Noble Nook eReader inside the designated slot on the inside of this bag and a reasonable amount of physical documents. Obviously when transporting my laptop I leave the Ellipsis at the office and place the eReader in the aforementioned exterior pocket. While this bag does not claim to be waterproof, it is durable and because it can be converted to a backpack, I have found it to be perfect for use when traveling by rail or air. Best of all, the sleek lines and minimalist exterior of this bag whisper "cool" as opposed to shouting "student/techie" when you walk into a business meeting. When carrying your laptop computer in this bag I recommend that you use a neoprene laptop sleeve for additional protection as the bag lacks a significant amount of padding inside and outside to protect against a dropped bag. I find this bag to be both stylish yet functional. Hip looking but with a measure of maturity thrown in.

    I swapped this bag out for my daily backpack. As a teacher, I haul papers, peripherals, and a MacBook Air daily to and from work. This bag has the ability to convert to a backpack, briefcase, and messenger bag. I mostly use the backpack mode while on my bike on on the way up, the messenger bag configuration when overloaded with papers, and the briefcase option between classes. Excellent build quality!

    I travel often in business and have been looking for a a "backpack" style computer tote that is smaller than a traditional backpack. Always annoyed by the travelers that get on the airplane with a backpack that protrudes out 2 feet! This backpack is versatile where you can carry like a briefcase, on your shoulder, or as a backpack. I LOVE IT and would highly recommend!

    I like the versatility of this bag: 1. It has padded slots for both a full-sized laptop and a tablet/ereader. I've used both, and they work quite well. 2. It has outside pockets that are well-sized for accessories such as power supplies, mice/trackballs, and so forth. 3. It can be used as a backpack or as a conventional laptop case, and it's comfortable either way. Overall, it's very solidly built, usable, and comfortable case.

    Great bag. The size is perfect for me, packing one iPad, a few supplies and lunch. The ipad pocket is too small for my iPad Pro 12.9, so I use the padded laptop pocket. My iPad air or older iPad do fit nicely in there… the bag’s material and craftsmanship are holding up well.
