Great backpack with lots of storage and pockets!

Very roomy and easy to fit. It’s also designed to be super ergonomic which makes it good for carrying in airports. I love the trolly strap as well. The only thing I would change on this bag is to add a dedicated mesh pocket for a water bottle. The current pocket that is supposed to serve as the area for a water bottle is too small for most water bottles and the zipper is a pain since my water bottle falls out easily.
I would recommend this to a friend!

Love the pockets and room. It could use a chest strap to keep from sliding off shoulders

I have to say I'm very surprise with this backpack. As a traveler, I have probably around 5-6 backpacks from all the principal brands ( Tumi, Ebags, Samsonite, OGIO). This backpack space distribution and organization is perfect! Is TSA compliant that you can open the computer compartment. I have to say has been the best space distribution design of all my existing backpacks. I'm looking forward to use this backpack a lot and probably will sell a couple of my existing backpacks. Cons: Not ballistic nylon construction. The top handle doesn't seem very sturdy, hopefully will last a long time. Would have loved a better method for inserting the backpack in top of my luggage. It is just a strap crossing the backpack. The location is not in the middle, so will not distribute the backpack weight in a good way, so if you put a lot of stuff in the backpack probably the backpack will try to move forward... Samsonite: Do this in Ballistic Nylon, Improve the sturdiness of the top handle and use another method to put the backpack in the luggage that will be firmer and you will have the PERFECT BACKPACK... Have to say, Samsonite missed the opportunity to make this design one of the premium backpacks
Pros: Easy To Access Items, Good Capacity, Stylish

As someone who frequently travels for work, I looked at a number of laptop backpacks (Tumi, Ogio, TravelPro, etc.) before ultimately deciding to purchase this one. After owning the backpack for over a month, here are my observations thus far. Pros: - Has a sleek, modern look, but is also comfortable to wear, functional and built for every day use. - The backpack is made with high quality materials, has great construction and feels like it will last for a long time. - The zippers are durable and have a smooth feel to them when opening and closing compartments. - The padded laptop compartment easily holds my 15" MacBook Pro. - The various compartments include lots of functional storage and easily hold multiple notebooks, tablets, charging cords, books, pens, snacks or anything else you might want to take with you on a trip, including a jacket. - The backpack is large, yet fits easily underneath an airplane seat in front of you. - One of my favorite features is how the backpack stands upright on the ground without tipping over, allowing you to add or remove items with ease. - The shoulder straps are gel-padded and the back padding is a mesh/foam, which is comfortable to wear. Cons: - There are two side compartments (one on each side of the bag) that close with zippers. The larger compartment can hold up to a 16.9 oz water bottle and still close. My personal preference would be to have the compartment made out of an open, elastic/mesh material that doesn't have a zipper and restricts the container size that you're carrying. - On the side of the backpack there is also a zippered compartment that houses a USB cable that can be used for charging (doesn't include a battery). Although this may be a nice option for some, I don't use it and would rather have the space to hold an umbrella or have a different functional use. Overall, I love this backpack and would highly recommend it for other business travelers! #sweepstakes

Normally it is good. But it is not as thick as the tectonic 2.
