MATEIN 17 Inch Work Laptop Backpack Large College Computer Bookbag with TSA Laptop Compartment Water Resistant Business Travel

This item exceeded my expectations. I wanted a backpack that would contain my laptop securely since I was sick of carrying a backpack and my laptop back. My former backpack was a little larger so I was worried things wouldn't fit in here. But to my surprise, everything fit, including the laptop, WITH ROOM REMAINING. I couldn't be happier with the product and how easy it is to use. There are more dividers and pockets allowing me to keep things separated much better. The price point was great too. It feels of quality as well. The charging USB is a nice touch too. I did spill coffee on it one day, and it wiped right off, so that's great as well! Read more

The bag is really excellent for the price. It easily holds a 17-inch laptop in an isolated and safe compartment, there are lots of organized pockets- for a charger, a mouse, a portable charger, a 1-liter water bottle, a thin jacket, sunglasses, a phone and keys. Looks good, very reasonable quality of materials, strong stitching, very comfortable on the back and also carried by hand. In short, a smart, spacious and organized bag that gives excellent value for money. Highly recommend Read more

this is a great backpack. It's well organized with very deep zippered pockets. It holds a lot. Padded comfy straps. Easy access small pockets, zippered in front and mesh on sides. Clip for keyring right at the top, very convenient. Can charge electronics externally. Zippers have been flawless so far. Read more

This is our third backpack purchase of this brand, over five years of high school. Our child loves them. They’re very supportive and well-made. They have a lot of room and hold space for books, laptop, and other supplies. They love that they have minimal metal zippers, and all the storage makes it easy to pull out materials to be searched through and makes going through the metal detector line daily quick and easy; as the backpack can be easily searched and scanned efficiently! However, both backpacks have ripped at the top strap after 14 to 15 months of use each time. The precious bitty one, last two years before ripping. I know the student does hold A LOT of books and materials and puts extra strain on the backpack, but we had hoped to get at least two years out to this pack. However the price is low and makes it a great backpack thus the four star review. Read more

I bought this bag because I have picked up on my traveling and wanted to get every last inch from that plane that is allowable since all these airlines have to rip all of us off. I did my research to maximize the size of the bag to be in compliance. I saw this bag and a few others. I was going back and fourth between several bags. This one had an advantage of having the charger attached to the back so the battery can remain inside the bag along with a few others that I was looking at. Ok now to the nitty gritty of what you are looking for. This is based on my most recent trip to Cin, OH for a concert on 5/24/2025. Durability: This bag passed with flying colors. When you first pull it out of the packaging, it feels like a regular bagpack you buy at Walmart. Once upon taking a closer look, you can feel and see the great quality in the materials and manufacturing. Size: Size was great. It met all the size specs of the dumb airline rules. They try to make money off of us any way they can so size is very important to have a personal item with you without getting charged for it. Versatility: Well this one is up in the air still. Maybe my trip to Mexico next week might shed better light. It is definitely a bag you can use for the plane but can also use for local trips like hiking or camping. The downfall of this is the straps. The straps could have been a bit more comfy but overall good. The one thing this bag is missing and to me is very important, especially when carrying a bag around all day, is the lower center strap that helps support around your stomach/back area. Pocket area on this bag is crazy. I thought it would have a couple a spots for different items. This has pockets galore. You can find a pocket for just about anything you wan or need (legally of course). Money, money, money.... The value for this bag can not be unbeat. I guess let me explain a bit why I say that. When comparing different bags with similar options and reviews several did stand out. This one made it to my top 3. Bouncing back and fourth all over the place I went back to this bag. Low and behold, ON SALE 50% off. PFT......... Sold! Read more

This is my second Matein backpack. The first one I used for several years including 2 years of daily use for college and subsequent years for travel. It has held up really well and looks good, but I finally needed a new one because one of the zippers came off the track and I needed a bigger size for travel. This backpack has a lot of good pockets, including a hidden one on the back. It fits a laptop and opens fully. I look forward to using it and hopefully it will last many years. Read more

Bigger than a standard daypack with more than ample storage capacity, allowing you to carry a laptop, jacket, and a change of clothes. This is supposed to be okay as a carry-on, but check with the airlines first. I prefer the grey color, as it does not absorb as much sunlight as black material, making it too hot inside the pack. The exterior looks very neat and professional. The padded shoulder straps make the pack easy to carry, as it won't dig into your arms and shoulders. Read more

Perfect for a college kid or someone who has to haul a lot daily! This is my husbands second one because he wears them out. It lasts long, really functional and tons of pockets. It’s easy to stay organized with the backpack. The zippers offer an option to lock it up if you feel the need. Waterproof too! Read more
