freebs Posted March 29, 2014 Share Posted March 29, 2014 Most of the gaming laptops give you free backpack as a bonus, i liked my rog backpack alot it's padded and comfy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruggb Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 My 11" I carry in a sleeve type case, as it is used for day trips mostly and battery life is 10 hrs so I only need my mouse.My 15" has a full soft case with pockets for charger, scanner, mouse, and various cables. A "test" drop on a corner from 2-3' produced no damage.Well, it was an unplanned "test".A hard case is a matter of preference, but IMHO they r breakable/bendable and not as "flexible" - carry wise or storage wise.

ambroseg1 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 I use a laptop backpack. Not the best one around as it doesn't have lots of cushioning, but I am super careful when transporting my laptop in it. No issues yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pan0phobik Posted April 28, 2014 Share Posted April 28, 2014 I splurged and bought the Alienware Briefcase that was made for my AW18. Didn't want to take any chances and it gives me another reason to hold Dell liable in the worst case scenario. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
i23mix Posted May 6, 2014 Share Posted May 6, 2014 I have a laptop backpack and it works well for my on-the-go needs. I have a Timbuk2 for my laptop or tablet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kvl5057 Posted May 21, 2014 Share Posted May 21, 2014 My laptop backpack came included with my lenovo y570 purchase from newegg a while back. Nice and padded, and extra slots for books/material. Same black/orange color scheme as the laptop also! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
l0rd Posted May 23, 2014 Share Posted May 23, 2014 With the smaller ones (11") I tend to go minimal / sleeve only, since I use them mainly while moving and don't want to carry a lot.The bigger ones (15" & 17") are carried in a backpack with a padded laptop pocket.

UnderdogRally Posted May 30, 2014 Share Posted May 30, 2014 I'm having trouble finding something reasonably professional that matches the mountain equipment co-op backup I've been using for a decade. Professional laptop/messenger bags just don't seem to have much space. I'm looking for suggestions, or experience if anyone uses timbuktu and/or crumplers.For non-work travel, I much prefer a hiking daypack. Well made, large, flexible pockets make a lot of difference. Good materials ensure that the empty pack is still light. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamdark24 Posted May 31, 2014 Share Posted May 31, 2014 I pop my laptop into a 16 inch Targus sleeve then place it into my padded Targus backpack. I haven't had a single issue and I have dropped the backpack a couple of times forgetting the laptop was in there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

golfguy251 Posted June 5, 2014 Share Posted June 5, 2014 I have a 15-inch and have been using a padded Targus carry bag since 2010.

Snide86 Posted June 8, 2014 Share Posted June 8, 2014 I really like this laptop bag, but sadly my Y500 doesn't fit in it, works well for my smaller work laptop though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erichmeyn Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I bought a 1495 Pelican Case and decorated it, I could throw this out of my 2nd story window with little worry about the condition of its contents. It is a bit heavy, but it's the price I'll pay for my gears safety. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moonshadow Posted June 10, 2014 Share Posted June 10, 2014 I have a Y510p and put it in a Wenger sleeve and then in a Wenger laptop carrying case for a 17". I've dropped it twice with no damage (yes, I'm a klutz). I carry a power supply, Razer mouse and pad, long Ethernet cable and a bunch of screen wipes.

Dacien Posted June 11, 2014 Share Posted June 11, 2014 I use a low-profile Targus backpack. I like the comfort of a backpack, without anything too flashy. Ideally, no one would even know I have laptop inside. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zanna Posted June 14, 2014 Share Posted June 14, 2014 Well, seeing as how my Y500 is a borderline DTR notebook I prefer carrying it in a high quality backpack - usually I'm also bring my charger and mouse along so a smaller carrier just doesn't have the capacity to fit everything comfortably. If you need to bring your workhorse into a conservative professional setting, though, it'll still be best to stick with the old fashioned messenger bag/briefcase.

stark1885 Posted June 20, 2014 Share Posted June 20, 2014 I like my book bag because it can hold my cooling pad, mouse, mouse pad, power cord, and any other toys i decide to bring along. I still seem to be running low on space. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hyperboost671 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I traveled from South Dakota to Colorado, Colorado to Japan, then my final destination Guam. Using the Slappa M.A.S.K. Jedi Mind Trix. Notebook on hand was the Sager 9570/ Clevo P570WM with two Power Bricks, Astro A50's, PS Vita and Logitech G700 S Was quite a work out lugging 20+ Lbs but everything fit securely. Airport screening was a breeze due to the TSA approved lay flat notebook sleeve. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uraz Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I have a bag that fits my 15.6" notebook really well. It has a sling so I can carry it around with me. However it's not waterproof so whenever it all suddenly rains I must find shelter ASAP Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
