Fantastic product for the price!,
I bought this for my new 17.3″ laptop. I read a lot of reviews trying to find a bag that would really fit my new computer, and I was running out of luck. When I found this one I chose I liked the style of it so much I’d take the risk, and it was so worth it.
My 17.3″ laptop fits in the laptop compartment with about a finger’s width leftover. The laptop compartment is well padded on both sides.
In the flip part of the messenger bag is 2 separate compartments, which easily fits my drawing tablet. It’ll probably fit files and documents easily, too. There’s a zipper compartment in the front as well which has a few pockets and pen holders, and other small things. The zip pocket on the outside of the bag isn’t as huge as I thought, but I reckon it’s mostly decoration. It’ll fit a cellphone and a few other small electronics for simple access.
Overall the laptop bag is fantastic. The strap is comfortable. It’s not bulky or awkward. As another reviewer said, the clips for the strap are made of a mix between plastic and metal which could be built better. But unless you’re known to ruin purses or backpacks, then it shouldn’t be a problem.
My only complaint is that the inside of the bag isn’t that pretty baby blue as advertised. It’s more of an aqua green. It’s not a terrible color, but that was part of what sold me on this bag was the blue.

|Decent bag, but too thin,
I like the look of this bag, and use it as my new work bag, taking my laptop to/fro and my daily papers. There isn’t a lot of space in the bag, though — I mean, it’s rather narrow from front to back, so I have difficulty fitting much more than a couple thin books and my laptop in it. For those who were wondering, considering it’s flap front, it is NOT a messenger bag, but rather a honestly stylish, slim, yough’ish looking laptop bag.
Pros:
* It fits all my 3 laptops (13.3″, 15″, 17″) with ease (separately), and with reasonable padding.
* It’s honestly stylish — more on the younger person style than and older more staid person’s.
* Simple access to zippered pockets, including the one on the front which is surprisingly well placed
Cons:
* Too thin from front to back — it’s not very forgiving, and doesn’t fit larger objects with any reasonable width.
* The front flap, after a couple weeks of normal wear, is starting to butterfly out, as if the plastic / cardboard lining is out of whack
* While stylish, it isn’t really “professional” looking enough to use it if you’re going to take your laptop with you on a business trip where you’ll be running into clients (in my opinion).
* I dread the clap which buckles the front flap to the body of the bag will eventually stretch out the nylon belt it grasps on to.
* It’s wide — I’m 6’1″ and a pretty huge guy, and this certainly goes fully across my back. It might be too huge for some people’s preference. IT took a small getting used to in my case.
On the whole, a excellent bag, but given the option again, I reckon I would choose something else.

|Caselogic proves, once again, they know how to design a case!,
I finally got a chance to test out this laptop bag when I traveled last weekend, and I thoroughly liked it. I have a 17-inch laptop that’s plenty heavy, plus I like to take the cords (with their huge power brick) and the mouse, so the fact that the bag added small extra weight was a plus. I was able to pack the computer and all its gear, plus two stacks of CDs, a stout paperback, and a magazine, with room to spare. I’ve always liked Caselogic products, from way back when I’d buy them for the cassettes in my car, and this bag was no exception. It can’t be beat for the price.
