    I love this bag, it is durable, simple, and has a very pretty color, if I could buy this bag again I definitely would, it can fit all of my stuff in it, and it has many compartments, I love this bag and it is one of the best bags I have ever bought it is even better than a bag like North Face. I would definitely get this bag again if I had the chance to.

    Lightweight but very strong, it has enough pockets to carry a laptop and charger, a water bottle, and all other necessary items for an office-goer or on a day trip. I have been using this for the past month and have carried it to so many cities. I found it useful and sufficient for my needs. The best part is the price. Its's so affordable.

    This is a very light and comfortable backpack with lots of room and compartments! It does not have the cords pass through since that was the description for, I believe, Octave II, but who cares. I guess they just forgot to correct the description. I got a couple of these in different colors for myself and also bought more as gifts as it is a quality easy carry backpack. It is very good for everyday and for travel since it is so light and roomy. It is also very easy to be organized with this backpack. You can take your laptop in it too. I love traveling with it since it's so light and comfortable. It has a lining on the inside and is well made too. I am trusting this brand especially since they even have a lifetime warranty on it. :) [I don't care about the sweepstakes although looks like I'm getting a free entry in it for writing this review. I just wanted to write this review. Didn't know it enters me anywhere. ha ha]

    ​The Targus Octave III Backpack is exactly what I needed. It fits my 15.6" laptop perfectly in the padded compartment, and there is still plenty of room for books, cables, and accessories without feeling bulky. The black color is sleek and professional, making it suitable for both work and travel. The material feels durable, and the straps are comfortable even when the bag is fully loaded. Highly recommend this for anyone needing a reliable, well-designed laptop backpack!

    I've been using Targus laptop bags for years for work and before that, school. This one replaced an older one and it's everything the older one was with the addition of the smaller front pocket which is great. The padded straps, padded laptop compartment, and several front pockets make it great to carry my laptop to work - plus my work phone, pens, iPad, AirPods, and miscellaneous items. I've been using this one for a few weeks and durability so far has been just fine. I don't expect any issues there since I typically use my backpacks for 2-3 years and my previous Targus laptop bags had no issues.

    I love this backpack — it's very quickly become my go-to bag for every day travel. There's A LOT of room and I really like the fact that each pocket has its own space to actually put stuff in, rather than it already feeling full if I only have one pocket filled. Super stylish color too.

    This bag has so many spaces for storage that I almost get lost in it! And that’s the best part. I can organize my cables, work devices, gaming devices and more with plenty of space.

    I use this for work to carry my electronics and chargers or when going out of town. It’s held up surprisingly well after months of use. The straps are starting to flatten out at the shoulder but still doing good
