I’m extremely critical when it comes to comfort, so I’m going all out here
Outside
The Front compartment of the backpack is protetected by a very durable shield. It feels a lot like a softer, but still quite hard, cellphone case. On the outside, their are two side pockets which open out to the side of the back. They are slim, but still usable. They fit a normal plastic water bottle fantastic, with a slight bulge visible in the shield. I would plot on using these pockets to hold my graphing calculator, one water bottle, and headphone earbuds.
The zippers all over are made of solid, lightweight, metal, accented with the alienhead logo. They all slide nice and simple. The main compartment zipper goes all away around the bag, nearly 275 degrees around. The bottom has too strong but flexible grips/standy thingers.
The padding that comes into contact with your back could certainly be called orthopedic. minimal near the spine for breathability, and pillowy cushioned around the lowerback, shoulder blade, and hip areas. The straps are lack luster in terms of cushion though. They are not but uncomfortable, just a small thin.
The phone compartment in the front holds an EnV2 and Blackberry Storm snugly.
The handle at the top is quite annoying. If you lean too far forward it bumps into your neck like someone tapping you quite hard to get your attention.
First Compartment
The first compartment is protected by the plastic shield. On that same side their are ten thin compartments meant for holding CD’s. Not many people carry around 10 CD’s barenaked like that though, so I’m going to place a one hundred dollar bill in each of them as placeholders.The top has a keyring.
On the opposite side, there is an MP3 holder, mouse holder, three loops for writing utensils, a backpack-wide mesh compartment at the bottom, and a padded zippered chamber hanging at the top. The MP3 hole is also at the top of this compartment.
Second Compartment
The second compartment is very simple. The side closer to the shield has a space wide enough for two Asus EEpc notebooks, or five college-ruled notepads.
On the otherside of the compartment, there is a mesh pocket wide and tall enough to hold two magazines without bulging.
Main Compartment
The main compartment is HUGE! The size of the entire backpack. It has a single mesh, plastic filmed pocket, that reads: “Checkpoint Friendly”. It’s for frequent flyers whos bags are inspected often, it opens easily. The sides of this pocket are lined with a fleece feeling fabric.

|Solid – fits HP HDX 18 laptops,
This backpack has space for two laptops and provides plenty of cushion. It includes a barrier to prevent cell phones or other wireless devices from transmissions, which can be a plus in certain situations. It also works well with the HP HDX18 laptops. There are better deals out there if you have a smaller laptop, but for larger laptops, I’d say this is the way to go. It’s not excessively large or bulky, which is a plus. Some people might be worried about the gaming logo attracting attention at airports, etc. That might be the main drawback.

|No Other Backpack Like It!,
So far I’ve owned about three different types and styles of laptop bags. I’ve gone through a Targus messenger bag, a Belkin sling backpack, and now this gorgeous piece of craftsmanship and comfort. I do have to admit I was a small skeptical about this bag and because it is a small pricey. I’m glad to say this bag has lived up to all my expectations. I own a Alienware Area-51 7700 which I retired a few years ago but was impressed on just how much room I still had when I place that monster laptop inside this bag. Even though the bag isn’t for the Alienware but for my new HP dv7-2185dx which is not as huge as the Alienware laptop but you will certainly have a lot of room to spare. This bag comes with all the bells and whistles, many pockets for all your needs. This bag is also sturdy and well padded in all the areas to keep your baby nice and comfortable as you travel or go to school. I do agree with one of the previous reviews about the back pack smelling but its not terrible and will go away with use. It smells like its been inside a plastic bag but it will go away. I did look at a lot of different sized bags that would accommodate 17.3″ sized laptops and this one is the only one that had the look and style I was looking for. All the other bags looked cheesy in comparison. After packing this laptop with my laptop, external drives, mouse, power cable, pens, pencils, sunglasses, and sketch pad I still had room enough to place a couple of books inside the bag. If you’re looking for an awesome bag and are willing to spend a small more to get a small more, you should certainly buy this bag. I hope this helps!
