Great bag as bags go, but I miss V1

Peak Design does a great job making products that look good and are very functional. This V2 Everyday Backpack is no exception. My only complaints come from being an original "V1" owner. There are several changes to V2 that I don't like compared to V1. Most prominently is side access flaps. On V1 the zippers went so far as to allow the side to swing completely open and stay open. On V2 the zippers do not go as far and the flap must now be held open or it closes. Staying open made the bag great for quick on-the-go access with just one hand. Secondly, on the side flaps, the inside was a fully covered and zippered pocket with smaller pockets within. Now the covering is gone. So the small pockets are just exposed to the inside of the bag. To make that worse, items are only held in the pocket by loose elastic fabric and a single magnet. So small items easily fall into the main compartment when the bag is moved around. Speaking of the loose elastic fabric.. my third complaint is the elastic fabric is thinner and weaker than fabric used in V1. I'm not sure of this was an economic choice or environmental, but it just feels bad compared to V1 and it's used throughout. V1 had a "secret" pocket just behind the latch on the main compartment that as well blended. Now its the loose elastic fabric and doesn't hide thing.
On the positive side, the magnets to hold the straps are welcome addition. As well as the extra pockets in the laptop compartment.

Best backpack I've ever owned

This backpack is hands down most comfy and best designed pack I've had. Only request would be making the bottle holders on the side 1" bigger, I had to get a new h20 bottle to fit (worth it though)

Smartest purchase I've made

I needed a bag that I could use to commute to work, but also comfortably and safely carry my camera and some extra gear. This bag is comfortable and doesn't feel bulky. I normally wouldn't spend this much money on a bag, but this was a no brainer and I had been wanting it for a while.

This is the bag that I should have bought long ago

I only have this back (midnight 30L V2) for a few weeks, but it is really good. When these came out a few years ago, the higher price put me off a bit and I bought something cheaper that in the end just annoyed me daily. So glad that I bought this now and it has changed my travel and daily office commute. I travel to customer sites every other week usually, so airports, taxis, hotel, offices are my routine. Having to dig out something from the bottom of a bag constantly was always a pain. The side access to this bag along with the 'Tech Pouch' for organising (additional purchase), is such a game changer. The internal origami style dividers provide so much flexibility and organisation as well. As mentioned, I don't have this bag that long, but i can see the advantages right away.

Literally an Everyday Backpack

I've had this backpack (20L size) for over a year now and it still looks and functions as if I just bought it. I initially bought this backpack for the photography aspect but it has become my go to backpack for work (I am a nurse) and for travel. My favorite aspect is the side access. I utilize this function so much, especially for travel. And I love the luggage pass through feature. It makes travelling so much smoother. This back pack is so comfortable to wear and I love the sleek design. I've actually thought about getting another colour in the 30L size to make it my permanent travel backpack!
