    I bought it for my son to use in school. These Targus bags are strong and comfortable. The previous one had a zipper malfunction after several months of usage (reason for 4 star). Just bought this one so not sure how if performs in the long run as compared to the previous one. This color might seem prone to dirt but turned out well with my previous buy and buying the same color again. With the discount it is a great deal.

    Targus Octave III Backpack: Perfect for Work

    Targus Octave III Backpack: Perfect for Work on the Go As a music video director, I’m constantly on the move—from sets to editing sessions and client meetings. The Targus Octave III Backpack has quickly become an essential part of my gear. The backpack’s main compartment fits my 15.6” laptop perfectly, with extra padding that gives me peace of mind when I’m traveling. It’s spacious enough to carry my laptop, hard drives, headphones, and even some of my smaller filming accessories like cables and adapters. Comfort is another big win. The adjustable shoulder straps and padded back panel make it easy to carry even when it’s fully loaded. Long days lugging gear around don’t leave me with sore shoulders, which I really appreciate. I also love the design—it’s sleek and professional without being flashy, which is great for client-facing situations. The extra pockets are well-placed and practical, helping me stay organized with things like my phone, chargers, and notebooks. One of the standout features is the durable material. It feels tough enough to handle daily wear and tear, and it’s water-resistant, so I don’t have to panic if I get caught in light rain while heading to a shoot. For anyone who needs a reliable, stylish, and functional laptop backpack, the Targus Octave III is a great choice. It’s versatile enough for creative professionals like me while offering the protection and storage space every commuter needs.

    talk about some value here! This backpack has been great! A lot of storage opportunities and protects my laptop and work items greatly. I searched for backpacks at all of the other local retails and they were expensive and built poorly. This checks off all of the boxes. And I love the color!

    9.99 for a backpack

    I purchased this product on a Total membership sale. The total went down to 9.99. This bag is a steal at that sale price. I doubt I would spend more than 20 on it however. Seems great for infrequent use but for heavy/rough usage I would say another bag will last longer. Lots of pockets and places to store items safely. If you just need to get your stuff from place to place every now and then it is perfect. That or if you are gentler with your things than me or my family.
