Laptop Backpack Review 2012

The Targus Zip-Through Backpack for 15.8 inch backpack for notebook computers does 2 things well: It protects your laptop and it allows you to pass through airport security quickly.

It does so by opening down the center. This separates the laptop from the accessories, which allows for X-ray or manual security screening. For your X-ray screening: put just the laptop in it's inner compartment; unzip it to "split" the backpack; lay it flat, lengthways, on the conveyor belt; retrieve and re-zip following screening.

For convenience, there are multiple pouches and pockets to keep computer - and other - accessories organized. One inner pocket that is missing is one for holding pens, you will find in most of the other backpacks.

There are more long lasting backpacks, but not very many match the adaptability of the Zip-Through by Targus.

The Belkin notebook Sling Bag is a side-sling bag that will carry a 15.4 inch laptop, its charger in a single pouch, as well as the other equipment in other pockets.

You can fit a folder and some other items in the backpack, but nothing bulky.

The main idea with the belkin is comfort and ease. The bag hugs the body and it possesses a well-padded strap. The back panel is made from a material that breathes.

I love the Belkin's sleek look.

Ideal for larger notebooks, Laurex's decorated backpack can carry a seventeen inch laptop.

You will find enough pouches, compartments, and pockets to store all the laptop accessories, personal electronics, pens, and binders that one could want (or lift) - you can also fit a water bottle into this backpack.

The straps on the Laurex are well-padded and comfortable. The backpack also has a handle, so you can use it like a briefcase.

Flaps, zippers, as well as other aspects are tough and well-constructed.

As the name implies, this backpack from Case Logic can carry up to a 15.4 inch laptop computer. Besides the obvious equipment, it can also carry personal electronics (cell phone) in two interior pouches.

There's a basic easy-access zippered pocket on the flap.

The shoulder straps are padded and contoured for comfort and ease.

The felt-lined inner surface deserves to be acknowledged, for protecting items that might well be scraped by harsher backpack interiors.

This Lowepro backpack can hold most 15.4 inch laptops, easily and in an "urban messenger" style.

There are adequate compartments, pockets and slots for accessories, personal electronics, books, and a water bottle.

The external material is water-resistant, and the laptop compartment is reinforced for extra security.

The shoulder harness is a breathable mesh fabric, and gets high marks for being wide and thick enough to prevent sore shoulders - even with a full load.
