Customer Ratings & Reviews

This backpack is amazing so many different pockets sizes and lightweight really helps. Since my purchase I have used this bag several times I have traveled through the airport with it I've gone on long hikes I've done strolls through the park I love it

I was in the market for a backpack. The one I had did not provide enough padding for my laptop. My co-worker suggested this one and I am very pleased. It's big enough to carry two laptops or tablets. Great cushioning to protect your devices. Additionally it has lots of space for things. Great for weekend trips where you don't want to carry a suitcase. I also found this to be a great value as well. Get this bag, you will not be disappointed

I got this bag for a trip to the middle, and it did exceed my expectations. There was more than enough room for everything I wanted to take with me. The bag is solid and beautiful. I recommend it to anyone looking for a new backpack.

Bought this bag to protect my tech while I work, I work mostly in production plants and build shops where tech this fragile should be held with care. The backpack looks rugged and strong, it feels like it too but with some substantial amount of comfort for your back. The bag is able to hold plenty of tools and keep your stuff safe:)

Great back pack for travel. Fits everything including laptop, iPad, pillow, extra set of clothes and all the odds and ends. Plus water bottle easy access on the outside. Lots of pockets and comfortable.

Good size. Lots of pockets. Great quality. It’s a strong and comfortable one

Needed to replace a Swiss Gear computer backpack that had lasted a long time but needed replacement. Needed a sturdy one with to handle rough treatment and a lot of travel. So far it's been great, I like the reinforced handle, all the pockets although there might be too many. Protects the laptop well. Have taken several trips, comfortable to carry, will recommend to others.

My plunge into the laptop backpack world was in part necessitated by the need for more storage. Yet I did not want to sacrifice protection for my top technology tool, nor wind up carrying a heavy rock that made me look like a hiker or a nerd. The SwissGear Synergy Laptop Backpack covered all of my bases, and has been a joy to carry and use for trips and meetings. This is the one to go with if you want a laptop backpack.

Lots of storage, tough and rugged. The only thing they got wrong is that most of the zippers only open one direction instead of split opening (as in center). If you don't zip securely you could lose your stuff!

The quality on the backpacks is unmatched. Always keeps laptop safe and convenient to carry around. Though very expensive, for the quality its worth it.

Great storage options. Strap on back perfect for use with carry on roller bag. Can even be used to safely carry two laptops based on design.

I upgraded from a thrift store $2 pack. I thought this one was a little expensive, but I really like it. Lots of pockets plus good protection for my laptop make it a really good choice for me. It's barely big enough for my lunch in the main compartment--it's a little small--but it fits. I like the shock-absorbing straps. It seems like really durable pack. Turns out it's very worth the money.

This backpack is very sturdy and spacious. The additional padding is great too.

Bought this to upgrade from an old bag from last school years. Also bough a Surface. This bag feels solid yet relatively lite weight. Can hold my iPad, Surface, associated cables, portable hard drive, mouse, phone, large coiled teacher planner, small planner, textbook for the class I teach, snacks, and a change of clothes with no issue.

Bought this same bag 15 years ago. That one is still being used. This new one works great, perfect compartments, straps, and weight.

What a difference a quality backpack makes!!! My kids’ school has not had lockers available for the past 3 years. The cheap wally ones hurt their back & has just one big space. We tried rolling Backpacks and the other stidents kept tripping over & kicking them. This backpack was on Deal of the Day and looked promising. We went to BB with the kids and they liked it right away. Lots of pockets, organization areas and extra padding. Even though they have to carry everything with them to each class, no more complaining about shoulders and lower back pain anymore. And, the kids said they are a lot more organized for school now. Would definitely recommend!

The size and style are perfect for my needs. The bottom and back of the backpack is made out of heavy duty material that should prolong its life. I use this for work and needed something durable that would hold up to being tossed around and in general take a lot of abuse from me and the environment it's used in. Only time will tell but based on the material I think I will be good with this for a few years

I tried out most of the backpacks in my local Best Buy store and picked out this bag since it seemed the most comfortable. Then I stuffed it full of my laptop, books, files & personal belongings before flying coast-to coast. After carrying on board seven flights, the heavy bag fit easily under the seat in front, fit in the overhead bins and was pretty easy to carry throughout the various airports. Highly recommended.

I bought this bag to replace a Targus brand backpack. All of the zipper handles on my Targus had broken off within a year. So I paid special attention to this when shopping for its replacement. I decided on the Swiss Gear because it has all metal zipper handles. Everything else on the Swiss Gear seems to be of a higher quality, both materials and construction. I think that the price is a little high, but I will be ok with it if the bag lasts.

I needed a new laptop bag and went to Best Buy to see the selection. I found the Swissgear Synergy to be a great selection as it had a many pockets and compartments as well as hold the laptop securely in place protecting it from damage. The backpack style is better for long carries because it evenly distributes the weight across your shoulders instead of hanging off one arm. I recommend this bag for anyone needed a good laptop bag.
