Synergy Laptop Backpack

I bought this backpack in February 2007 when I was in school doing my Masters. I needed a bag which can hold my 15.4" Vaio with extended battery (total weight ~ 6 lb), 1-2 textbooks and 1-2 notebooks. And also some stationary and all stuff. I did not have any other gadgets at that time. :( First Impression: - When I received this backpack I was completely amazed by the build quality. There are gazillion pockets and each of them are designed and placed very thoughtfully. - Separate compartment for laptops has sturdy pocket to protect the laptop and there is a small pocket to hold all the power cables of the laptop. The strap on the laptop pocket holds laptop securely in place. - The back side of the backpack is designed very well for the air ventilation when you are carrying it. The cushions on the back are so comforting and will never make you feel like you are carrying so much of weight. - The shoulder straps are fully adjustable and also has cushion on them. - The main compartment can hold a big (really big!!) book (or 2 medium books). It has a pocket to hold some loose papers or notebooks. - Then there are on big, one medium and one small compartment for stationary and stuff. In the medium compartment there are again a few pockets and compartments to keep things organized. - There are two side pockets to hold water bottles, coffee cups, etc. - Right beneath the handle of the bag there is one compartment for MP3 player or smartphone. You can leave your phone, player inside and run the headphones through the designated headphone hole. It was amazing thing in 2007 :) How I used it for over 5 years: - I was doing my masters when I bought this and my primary use of this was to carry books and laptop. - As I started using it, I realized how much this backpack can hold. After a few months I saw myself stuffing it with all kinds of things. On a typical school day you would find: Textbooks, laptop, a notebook, a lot of stationary (around 25 pens and pencils ;) ), 2 flash drives, a diary, a water bottle, a soda bottle, some snack (chips or something), hot chocolate powder and few other things. I can say this: If I were to lost in a jungle, I would easily survive few days there. You get the point. - My current use excludes some food items and textbooks but includes few other gadgets like tablet, hard drive, headphones, etc. - Overall after 5 years it's still going solid. This backpack is the sturdiest from every angle and at every inch of it. The zippers are same as they were in 2007. Not a single thread or anything has come off of the backpack. It looks as if I have just bought it. (Well I take care of my stuff pretty well so that counts too) Only thing I wish I could change: - The only thing I wish I could change is the look when I am carrying it. Because it's able to hold these many things, the backpack has a wide base. So that it stands on its base. So when I am carrying it, it won't look too cool like some other backpacks. It's simply designed that way so that one can stuff whatever is needed. So unless you are looking for a cool looking backpack this is the BESTEST backpack you will ever buy. Price: - When I was thinking of buying a good backpack I researched for 1-2 months and decided to buy this backpack. Then I watched its price for another 2 months and it never fluctuated a bit. I bought it for 60 bucks in 2007 and I was watching the price even all these years. It is always varying between 50 - 60. So trust me on this one. Price is not going to go down dramatically one morning even if it has a newer model. Conclusion: - If you are like me who needs a backpack which is solid in design, holds a small studio inside and lasts forever in commute, I have two words for you: BUY IT!!

It stores my laptop and all of my accessories, with room to spare! It's well made, and rugged. I purchased one of these several years ago, and was impressed. So, when I needed another one, I hoped I could find another one; and when I found it, I gladly purchased it. I am glad I did.

I was looking for a backpack to carry around my 17" laptop for a 2 week trip to Brazil, where my usual laptop carrying case would have screamed "Please mug me, I have a laptop!" It was great for that purpose, and now that I'm back home I find myself using this backpack more and more, as it is simply an awesome bag. First, it does as advertised: it fits my 17" laptop perfectly and although I haven't thrown the bag around to test its padding, it seems more than adequate for normal use. My guess is that your laptop would likely survive a decent fall in this backpack; certainly much better than if you just dropped it in a bag without any padding. But what really makes this a great bag is that it does more than just this. First, it is extremely comfortable, even with large amounts of weight in the backpack (sometimes when I take it off and lift it by the handle I realize it's much heavier than it feels when carrying it on your back!). The padding on the back is also designed to keep the weight of the backpack from sitting squarely on your back (allowing you to more easily avoid that uncomfortable and unattractive "sweaty backpack back" syndrome). It also can carry a lot in its multiple pockets and pouches. I can easily fit my laptop and accessories, camera and accessories, books, papers, folders, etc., etc. with room to spare, making it handy for work and travel (I actually see a good number of people in business suits toting these around airports, which looks a bit silly but speaks volumes about its comfort and utility!). And even when carrying quite a bit, the backpack doesn't look as huge and grossly overstuffed as some backpacks can when you're carrying a lot. I love the sturdy, reinforced handle (a feature I enjoy since the handle of my last "regular" backpack quickly became frayed and anytime anyone went near my backpack I had to reflexively shout "don't-lift-it-by-the-handle!!!" to avoid disaster). It looks nice but also doesn't scream "there's a laptop inside!". The bigger issue is that it's become so popular that many people (i.e. thieves) probably know that it does likely have a laptop inside. I could go on and on, but would only be repeating what others have said. Just get this bag!

Great work backpack for my husband as he travels and needs to carry the paperwork, laptop and iPad with him. He has plenty of room to add his Bluetooth mouse and his external keyboard for the iPad as well. They are several pockets to store items as well. The straps make this a very comfortable bag to carry. We loved it so much that we bought another one just like it for our son who was traveling for work as well!

What a great backpack. Very heavy duty and lots of pockets and storage. Great quality as well.

Estuve mirando varias mochilas antes de decidirme por esta, necesitaba una mochila espaciosa para usar a diario y llevar libros, el portátil, la comida y a veces las cosas del gimnasio, pero también necesitaba que fuera suficientemente grande para usarla en viajes cortos. Tuve bastantes dudas y estuve viendo vídeos en youtube de varias mochilas para hacerme una idea más "real" de como era cada una. El problema que veía en todas ellas era el hueco para el portátil, mi portátil es un hp de 17,3 pulgadas y las mochilas que estaba mirando eran todas para ordenadores de 17 pulgadas. leí los comentarios pero tampoco me quedó muy claro si mi ordenador entraría o no. Finalmente me arriesgué y decidí coger esta mochila y el resultado ha sido mejor de lo esperado. El portátil entra perfectamente, si es verdad que los bordes se marcan un poco en la mochila debido a su tamaño, pero ésta no solo cierra perfectamente si no que además puedo meter mi portátil en una funda de neopreno y, esta vez sí un poco más justa, la mochila sigue cerrando. Además de poder transportar mi ordenador, la mochila es suficientemente amplia como para llevar todos los trastos que tengo que llevar cada día, y aunque aún no la he usado en ningún viaje, he hecho alguna escapadita de fin de semana y tenia espacio de sobra. En algún comentario leí que entraba agua por los agujeros de la parte delantera, yo la he usado en dos ocasiones en las que llovía y no he tenido ese problema. En todo caso si entrase agua no pasaría del primer bolsillo. Los materiales y los acabados de la mochila son muy buenos y gracias a los tirantes reforzados la mochila no pesa tanto o al menos a mí los hombros no me duelen, cosa que con la anterior mochila que tuve era imposible. En cuanto al tamaño, solo puedo decir que es muy majo. La mochila es bastante amplia pero no tiene un tamaño exageradamente grande, es perfecto. Desde luego recomiendo esta mochila a todo aquel que esté buscando una para usar a diario y para llevársela de viaje. La calidad es muy buena y puede que parezca un poco cara, pero si realmente vas a usar la mochila a diario tienes que procurar mirar por tu salud y, sin ninguna duda, la calidad se paga. Yo uso mochila prácticamente todos los días, por eso no me importa pagar un poco más si cuando llego a mi casa por la noche no me duelen ni los hombros ni la espalda. Espero que esta opinión sea de ayuda.

Mochila fantástica, el portátil (Msi de 15") va perfecto, y muy protegido por el acolchado. La calidad de la mochila es soberbia, tanto en remates como en el tejido. Tiene un montón de compartimentos para guardar todo, puedes poner dos botellas de agua en los laterales, e incluso tiene un compartimento específico para navajas Victorinox de 91mm y 111mm. La mochila es muy cómoda de llevar y las sujeciones están muy alcolchadas así como la parte que esta en contacto con la espalda, si acaso lo único que se echa de menos es que se pudiera atar a la cintura para que no se moviera, pero tampoco es tan necesario. Yo la compré a 64€ y de las mejores compras que he hecho en amazon, la recomiendo al 100% y aún mas si sois fans de la marca Wenger-Victorinox.

Esta mochila ha mejorado mucho la comodidad con la que almaceno mis cosas, la calidad se nota y se siente que va a durar. La volvería a comprar si alguna vez quiero otra mochila más.

For the price it is a very stable and a feeling of good quality when carrying this backpack. The size is good enough for me to store needed accessories but I wish it would be more compartments on the side of the backpack
