Targus CityLite Laptop Briefcase Shoulder Messenger Bag for 15.6-Inch Laptop, Black (TBT053US)

Targus CityLite Laptop Briefcase Shoulder Messenger Bag for 15.6-Inch Laptop, Black (TBT053US)

Q: Will this bag hold a 17.3" hp envy m7 gaming laptop (7 lbs.) and an ipad?

Iqbal,Thanks for your question. The answer to your question, unfortunately, is no. I own one of these laptop cases myself and my 15 inch Dell Inspiron just fits. So I'm sure 17.3 will not fit at all.

Q: How is the bottom corner padding?

The bottom corners have decent padding, but larger laptops will be more exposed. I have a 14" Dell widescreen laptop and it is protected very nicely during daily travel.

Q: Is this case waterproof?

Is this case waterproof? That's a question for the manufacturer. My answer, having owned two of these over the past 17 years, is "I doubt it." Water-repellant? Probably. On my last bus journey, when rain was likely when I might be out in the open, I fashioned a plastic bag, upside down over it, just to make sure nothing inside got damp. It's a VERY GOOD case. But waterproof? Probably not.

Good Quality and Functionality

I carry a laptop back and forth from home to work. I really like this Targus bag. It’s very well made; heavy material with lots of padding. It also has lots of pockets and will hold some files, a full size folio, and some office supplies. I have owned several Targus bags and find them to be well made and an excellent value for what they cost.
