jrbaytown Posted October 10, 2013 Share Posted October 10, 2013 Thread is a bit old but I'll post my recommendation for others. I've found the Swiss Army backpacks to have great quality. A simple sleeve or thin tote wouldn't work for me...my backpack is basically a man purse. But the reason I recommend them is they are durable, last a long time and have lots of storage pockets. They also have a lot of styles on their website or you can go to Best Buy and choose from their stock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MisterV Posted December 4, 2013 Share Posted December 4, 2013 I have an ASUS G750JX and carry it around with the ROG backpack it came with, but the laptop is heavy (10 lbs) so I don't travel with it much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

katmai7 Posted December 8, 2013 Share Posted December 8, 2013 For my Dell Precision M6600 17" I am using Targus TCB001EU backpack. It's really solid and nice finish.

koichichu Posted December 10, 2013 Share Posted December 10, 2013 for a while i used a messenger bag, then i switched to a nice leather laptop case but i found it didn't have enough room for a charger and any extras i wanted to bring with me. now i use a swiss backpack with a laptop pouch inside it fits all my stuff comfortably and it has room for anything else i need and if i'm worried about bumps and dings along the way i can always toss a few t-shirts in there for extra padding.

Uberperson Posted December 13, 2013 Author Share Posted December 13, 2013 Well I started this thread and finally found my favorite case. I ended up finding it buried in the back of the church I work at. It looks like it was made for laptops. Not sure what brand it is but it works well. Here are some pics It was a bit beat up when I found it but I am also a bit rough with my cases so works for me. Still have no idea how to change the locking combination, didn't see any mechanism on the back of the locks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goodman Posted December 15, 2013 Share Posted December 15, 2013 I generaly use a large and heavy case to transport my gaming laptop, it has enough room for my computer and cooler in the laptop spot. The is a side strap that I squeeze my mouse into. My power adapter/ headphones/etc. go in the outer pouch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CptOopS Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 I carry my Lenovo Y500 and all of its accessories in a Swissgear computer backpack. It has a 15.6" screen and fits just right. I've never had an issue.However, I must warn you. If you're a pet owner, make sure there is NO HAIR in or around your enclosed machine. I've gotten some nasty scratches from packing it away dirty and on days with a lot of walking. (I only warn b/c I wish someone had told me that brushed aluminum can be mutilated by animal dander.) Good luck finding what works good for you.This is the backpack: http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0019M7WFE/ref=oh_details_o02_s00_i00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nanobullet Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 I use an Asus Rog Shutle for my Clevo P170SM. Its excellent for carrying around the laptop and all the gear, headphones, mouse, and for protection it's one of the best in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XUNB1 Posted December 28, 2013 Share Posted December 28, 2013 I use a sleeve with handles and put it in my swiss gear school bag. I can fit all my peripherals in it too along with school books and binders. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ratdude747 Posted January 27, 2014 Share Posted January 27, 2014 Backpack with a hefty laptop sleeve built in. Mainly because I have books for class, papers, and a bevy of accessories/tech toys tossed inside. Heavy as lead, but it's a good workout... The only issue with this is at least for me, the backpack is unstable... it falls over without warning... may be my load configuration, but something to be wary of. I've frequently had it fall off tables an the like (hence they hefty sleeve choice). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
babalouj Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 I am a backpack fan. I travel a lot and the comfort that a backpack gives in an airport or just around town on travel is unbeatable. I wear through my backpacks pretty fast but I tend to stick with Caselogic backpacks with a nice built in laptop sleeve for protection. Their backpacks have a nice shoulder cushioning system.

Sen7inel Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I travel quite a bit for work and over time found backpacks with a dedicated, cushioned notebook pocket travel better than cases nor shoulder bags. Sleeves are nice... when you bring your computer to your friends house, not protective or durable enough for frequent traveling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starmania100 Posted February 21, 2014 Share Posted February 21, 2014 I use a messenger bag with padded cushions to support my laptop. When I'm carrying more things, I opt for a backpack.(Targus). Dropped the bag several times by accident when I was using my old laptop, and it never gave me any problems! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zstrike Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 Sony TT user here. I'm a big proponent of pockets, and actually have modified several jackets to that my TT will fit in the interior breast pocket (right side). Notepad and pens goes in other breast pocket (left side), another pocket holds the AC adapters for both my phone and laptop (also right side), wallet in left pants pocket, phone in right, keys in front left jacket pocket. Right front jacket pocket reserved for misc. use. It sounds bulkier than it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jezz3r Posted March 12, 2014 Share Posted March 12, 2014 I use tragus backpack (im a backpack man, mostly because of freedom of movement with the backpack) for my MSI GT70. Since the laptop is not to slim it barely fits in, but because of that it sits there tightly and secure. Cant really say if its safe enuf since i try to be extremely cautios with such expensive gear, but given that back one side of the unit is protected by my back and the other by thick layers of the backpack i would say that bottom side is the weak spot, as there is close to no protection. I havent experienced any problems with water resistance, and i have to mention that the backpack (loaded) have seen a few Down poustawial Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uzu309 Posted March 19, 2014 Share Posted March 19, 2014 For me it's a backpack that just happens to have a laptop / notebook sleeve, seems to get the job done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
