Whether walking across campus to the library or walking cross country on a hiking trip, laptop backpacks are coming into their own as comfortable ways to both transport a laptop and keep it safe from damage at the same time.
Laptop backpacks differ from a traditional school book bags or other laptop cases in that they provide special padded compartments to provide extra protection from minor drops or other impacts. Sizes and features vary between backpack manufacturers, making it possible to find one that exactly fits the lifestyle of the user. This article examines some of the most popular and highly rated laptop backpacks available on the market today.
Laptop Backpacks For the College Student
From a company named Tibuk2 comes a line of laptop backpacks known as the Hacker Daypack. These simple, lightweight backpacks are not intended for roughing it in the woods, but feel right at home in class or being carried around campus.
The Hacker line has several different fabric choices from the environmentally friendly hemp to the more sleek and stylish faux mink fabrics. One nice touch on the Hacker backpack line is that the arm straps convert the backpack to a standard single sling shoulder bag. Be aware however that other brands such as the Samsonite Urbanite line also have received excellent user reviews yet sell for less than half of the price of the Hacker Daypacks.
TSA Friendly Laptop Backpack For the Traveler
For travelers that fly a lot the new MobileEdge ScanFast Laptop Backpack will deserve some close attention. The ScanFast is one of the first laptop backpacks to come out that has the official Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) seal of approval on it.
This means that users of this laptop backpack will not have to remove their computer from the bag during the airport security screening process. TheScanFast bags use a special design that allows security operators to X-Ray the computer and other contents while still in the bag. The bag is not incredibly roomy, but for travelers who want convenience and less hassle at the airport, the MobileEdge ScanFast is a top contender.
A Leather Laptop Backpack For the Businessman
The big problem with most laptop backpacks is that they look like... Backpacks! For a business professional most backpacks do not present the image that they wish to convey to potential clients. Clava's leather laptop backpack line is the exception to this rule. Looking more like a fine leather briefcase than a backpack, the Clava Excel Leather Laptop Backpack provides adequate space for almost any 17 inch laptop while having the ability to remove and store the straps to convert this backpack into a shoulder bag upon arriving at the office.
Choosing the perfect laptop backpack for a gift or for personal use is not necessarily a difficult task. Still, buyers should always remember that different users may have very different needs when it comes to the features, capacity, and style.
