StarTech.com Laptop Backpack with Removable Accessory Case

Does exactly what it says and much much more.

I bought this because I loved the concept of the slide out box to put all the chargers etc into as I have a fair few accessories and at the moment they are all in a front pocket and tangled up. The first thing I did when I opened the parcel was to unzip the side opening and take out the box.The box itself is great but it seems to be exactly the same size as the opening, meaning it's not too bad to get out but very hard to get back in, why on earth have the manufacturers done this, a 5mm tolerance all round would have not had any impact on practicality but would make a huge difference to usability.The small top zip pocket is just a flap so you can't get anything of substance in there. In my old Samsonite bag I carried my wallet, a ear buds, glasses, and a few things I needed fast access to, now it's just my glasses. The larger front zip pocket is also a flap but with more capacity. It has a zipped section and elastic straps for pens etc.The centre compartment, zipped from the top, is large with one unzipped pouch and 2 zipped sub pockets. All goodThe rear compartment holds my 14" laptop, iPad Pro 12.9” and A4 notebook perfectly, with space to spare, and has a padded zipped sub pocket.Two very good things; 1) zips open one handed as the bag is a firm shape. My old bag often needed 2 hands to undo a zip, a pain if you were in a situation where the other hand was carrying the bag. 2) the bag stands up when you put it down, my old one fell forward which was very annoying.If the accessories box came out and went in easily this would be a 5 start review, and perhaps over time it might ease but I can't see how.It seems very comfortable and water resistant so I'll see how I get on.

I loved the concept of this rucksac idea but, in my personal opinion it makes the rucksack too bulky and ridged. I therefore returned the item.

Well now I can finally make a review for this item. Yes it’s fancy. Very useful bottom case. Quality I’d say 4 from 5. Very versatile but durability around 1-2 points. (Trouble On the photo.) yes I understand I use it a year but I don’t use it for really heavy stuff. Just MacBook and remarkable plus a few pencils and papers. Seriously I would be really sad if I get this bag-pack for 160eur.
