    Perfect Minimalist Backpack for Daily Use

    I’m really impressed with this bag. I needed something that could fit my 15.6” laptop without feeling like I was carrying a giant camping pack, and the Octave III hits the sweet spot. The design is sleek and professional enough for work, but it’s sturdy enough for everyday errands too. ​What I love: ​Perfect Fit: My laptop slides in easily and feels secure with the dedicated padding. ​Organization: It has just the right amount of pockets. I can keep my cables and mouse separate from my main stuff so I'm not digging around at the bottom of the bag. ​Comfort: Even when I have it loaded up with my laptop and a few heavy notebooks, the straps are comfortable on my shoulders.

    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'm so glad I bought this bag! It has tons of storage compartments for all my accessories, and the shoulder straps are padded and wide, so it's super comfortable to carry around. The bag is really well made, down to the smallest detail. I highly recommend it. Targus products never disappoint!

    Like all other Targus purchases, this one did not disappoint. The material is sturdy, plenty of room, more than enough room for all my essentials for work, school or travel. Got it at a great price too which was a bonus for me. Would definitely purchase again.

    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.
