Case Logic AUA-314BLK 14.1-Inch Laptop/ MacBook Air / Pro Retina Display and iPad Slim Case (Black)

Many thanks to the person or persons who designed this case for 17.3" laptops plus tablets. Job well done!After the excitement of purchasing my new HP Envy 17.3" Notebook began to fade, I realized I needed a nicely padded, sturdy case to carry said notebook, plus various assorted accoutrements, including, but not limited to: a folding tabletop notebook stand, USB hub, discs, manuals, and paperwork, power cords, wireless mouse and mousepad, external hard drive, etc. And, believe it or not, I was able to finagle room for almost everything.The case is well padded with good support, a neccessity with this heavy monster. A 17.3" screen is awesome, but it isn't lightweight.The handles of the case are sturdy and securely attached to the body of the case, and the shoulder strap is comfortable and well-padded. Due to other reviewers qualms about the flimsiness of the strap connectors, I may replace those soon, before any accidents occur. A quick trip to a sewing goods store should do the trick, even though to date, I haven't had any issues with the connectors or the strap.The outside material of the case is black, which resists dirt, and is made of a durable nylon fiber. The inside and inner pockets are gray, and lined with a soft, non-abrasive fabric.There are several storage pockets, including the large outside pocket that is divided and slotted, and useful for storing power cords and larger items. A large zippered pocket located inside that same outside pocket stores paperwork easily and discreetly. The tablet storage pocket, located inside the main area, works as designed, although I'm not able to use it for my tablet at this time due to battery issues. Instead I'm using it for storing DVD's and other like-sized items. The small outside zippered pocket is perfect for my phone, keys, and other small items when I don't want to carry a purse. And, the luggage strap is handy for attaching the case to pull-along luggage. Plus, the extra outside quilted padding ensures more protection for the notebook and adds a nice design element.I'm definately happy with my case, especially since cases for larger notebooks aren't that easy to find. And, the price was right in line with my budget - very affordable.

i picked up this case to go with my new Acer C720 Chromebook, 11.6-Inch. i opted for the slightly larger case over the 11.6" size because i wanted to also have the option of carrying full-page paperwork and a few other items if necessary, without having to cram everything into the case. turns out that was a good decision!the chromebook fits into the laptop compartment with a bit of extra wiggle room, but it's not flopping about inside the case. the other main compartment is large enough for 8.5x11 paper or notebooks, manila folders, etc etc. this is handy because i bought the chromebook to use as a work machine at the bar, and the checkbook, bills, and other paperwork fits right in there alongside the chromebook.the front compartments are also very handy. i put the chromebook charger, a couple connecting cables, spare batteries, and office supplies in there without causing any bulge or having to cram anything in place. there are three compartments sewn into the side to hold everything neatly where i want it. i can see the front zipper for cell phones being very useful, but i keep my phone in my pocket and have yet to store anything in there.over all i'm very happy with this case from case logic. it feels like it is very sturdy, yet super lightweight. it's nothing to toss this over your shoulder fully-packed, and barely notice it due to its small size and thin profile. even though it's slightly larger than my chromebook requires, it's the perfect size for my needs.

I ordered this for my slimline Toshiba 15.6" laptop. The laptop is an odd size, long and narrow, none of my other laptop sleeves would work properly. Even bags sized for my laptop were not wide enough to also allow me to store the charger for the laptop, my iPad, and my phone. So, I ordered this 17.3 sized bag, and I am able to fit everything into this one bag, PLUS all of the necessary chargers and cables.The bag is attractive, black material with red piping", there is an outside zippered pouch with internal storage areas for pens, pencils, and enough room for my iPad and it's cable and charger. On the other side, there is an outside zippered pouch which fits my iPhone with room to spare, there is certainly enough space for a much larger Android or other type of cell phone. The inner area is just the right size for my laptop, there is a bit of space at each end which makes it easy to insert and remove the laptop. There is also an inner storage zippered compartment, just the right size for the cables and the charger for the laptop. With all 3 items packed inside of this bag, it still does not bulge out, or make it difficult to remove whichever item you need.The padding of this sleeve with handles is thick enough to provide adequate protection from bumps, and from being packed inside of a carry-on bag. The padding is not thick enough to save your laptop from a fall from height. But, it is not marketed as such, for ultra protection buy a much more expensive hard-sided laptop carrying case. The handles are well-padded and extremely convenient. My past laptop sleeves had no handles, and also no room for cables, chargers, tablets, and phones.This is a lot of carrier bag for a low price, the quality is much higher than the price would seem to indicate. As mentioned, I DID order one size up, had I ordered the recommended size for my laptop, there would not have been enough space for the tablet, phone, and all of the chargers. I recommend this carrying sleeve/case as a good quality, low-priced, and convenient carrier for all of your various phone and computer items and accessories. The outer cover is attractive, tough, and does the job.
