    It suits my needs for work. If you need a large bag this one isn’t for you. I just needed something light to carry a book binder and laptop. Works perfect and is comfortable! It has a bunch of pockets which were an added bonus! Simple and quality couldn’t beat the Black Friday deal!

    The Targus Octave III Backpack is a generally well-regarded backpack, offering a good balance of features, comfort, and value. Its spacious design and dedicated laptop compartment make it an attractive option for various needs. I use it when I travel and going to work. Also, with the padded shoulder straps and back panel makes this backpack really comfortable. Most of all I am appreciative of the laptop compartment.

    Best Buy Bag Review The Best Buy bag is a practical and functional solution for carrying electronics and other purchases. Here’s what stands out about it: Durability: The bag is made from sturdy materials, designed to hold even heavier tech items like laptops, gaming consoles, or accessories. The handles are reinforced, minimizing the risk of tearing. Design: Its clean, professional look aligns with Best Buy’s branding. The blue and white colors, along with the bold logo, make it easily recognizable and aesthetically pleasing for a shopping bag. Size: The bag comes in various sizes to accommodate items of different dimensions, whether you’re buying a small gadget or a larger home appliance. However, it’s worth noting that the smaller sizes might feel a bit cramped for bulkier items. **Eco-Friendliness

    I like that there are a lot of compartments. What i dislike is that i don’t feel like there is enough padding at the bottom of the bag so i have to be very careful setting my bag down with my laptop in it compared to my last bag. I also liked how afforable it is.

    I just has room for a 15 inch laptop and power brick and some accessories. But it might be too small if you need additional items like legal pads, portable external displays and other stuff for remote work. The padding is very poor which is very surprising because my last bag was also a Targus that had great padding. But this one lacks padding for underneath the laptop. It wouldn't be able to protect a laptop if the bag fell bottom first to the floor. its approximately 20L. It also doesn't have much structure to it. I will be returning it because I need to additional portable monitors and legal pads for writing. I guess that's why it was so cheap.
