The tech pouch is perfect.

I was able to take two or three pouches that I usually use into this thing, while keeping it more organized and more contained in my daily carry. It's very robust construction and solid feeling. Easy to open quickly, find the item and throw back in the bag. Couldn't improve it at all.
I have a ton of adaptors, cables, chargers for phone, iPad, laptop and Apple Watch with me - this pouch safely stores all of it. Perfect companion for me - it fits much more than I thought.
It's a great pouch if you have a ton of cables and a ton of room in your bag. If you are doing a short trip, it is overkill. It could use two zippers. It could use a handle on top instead of two handles on the bottom. I'd like to see a few extra zippered pouches inside and some more depth on the outside zippered pocket. The zipper path is sometimes blocked by the inner material. What I'd really like to see is it made longer and thinner. I don't usually travel with two water bottles, so it would be if you could stash the tech pouch or the wash pouch in one of the side water bottle pockets. Unfortunately, the pouches are both too fat.
I'm surprised there aren't more reviews (so far just 8) for the Tech Pouch. During the Kickstarter this seemed to be one of the most talked about items in the kit. By the time I got mine, yeah, it definitely met all my lofty expectations!
This wee little bag has been a great addition to my overall kit. For travel, I loved when I got on a flight I could throw my main pack up in the overhead bin and then just keeping the Tech Pouch under the seat in front of me. Everything I wanted for the flight was there-- cables to charge things, AirPods, Kindle, and even my Nintendo Switch. I could fit the Switch screen in the middle of the Tech Pouch perfectly and the Joy Cons tucked away nicely. I was even able to put a slim Mophie charger in the outside pocket just in case the flight didn't have any charger ports-- which traveling around Latin America, yeah they didn't.
As for my everyday carry, I started bringing it with me in my 20L Everyday Backpack as well. I can keep many of the accessories within the 20L ED backpack side pockets but I still like pulling out all my little accessories when I need to. I just leave it on my desk at work and grab what I want out of it.
The handles are great and I like that I can stick a PD strap on it as well. It's a very versatile carry. I can't imagine any future trip without the Tech Pouch. I've tried every option out there to keep my myriad of accessories in a manageable space-- Tom Bihn, ThinkTank, REI, etc-- but the Tech Pouch wins.
This bag has changed the way I work and commute. Especially as someone with a lot of Apple products and the attendant dongles and cords that they require, I've found the Tech Pouch to be the perfect companion. And as long as I put a sleeve on my laptop, I can now pack for any trip in any bag while staying entirely organized. I think some version of this bag will be ubiquitous in 5 years.
Great material and great internal design. Overall satisfied with this bag and not regretting the purchase at all. For something I wish it had, like some of the other reviews mentioned already, it would be nice to have a carrying strap on the top.
This is a beautiful pouch with great organization design. I replace my field pouch with this and it's awesome. The small secondary pocket where you can place your phone and charge via a hole connect your usb and powerbank at main component, the pocket are small, not fit for larger phone nowadays. Even if you may, the cable really being twisted and it would damage the cable. Thus I rate 4 stars rather than 5, still. One of most beautiful tech pouch in the market with great features.
