Review on Everki Advance Laptop Bag EKB407NCH17 by Chris Smotherman

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Well built and suitable as a large laptop/desktop replacement

Please note I have only had the bag for a week and will be adding more updates. Looking for a large carrying case for my Acer Helios. 500 (16.9 x 1.5 x 11.7 inches, almost 9 pounds) eventually led me to two options: a backpack and this. The first day of school was excluded. The pockets are big enough and there is still some space in the main compartment for my computer. I can also mount the power supply, mouse and game controller with no protrusion issues. side or additional zip pocket. While I don't have big, oversized headphones, I think they fit easily. One criticism is that the pockets for pens, small items and USB sticks are made of very thin nylon material and the quality doesn't seem to be as good as the rest of the bag. I can see that the stitching in this area unravel very easily after prolonged use. I like the Velcro pocket on the front of the bag. The bag itself is as big as the bag's front flap, giving quick access to everything you need in a hurry, like your phone, wallet, or maybe even your tablet. The padding is excellent, although given the size and weight of the computer I have, I doubt the case will protect it from drops. However, in the event of an accidental light knock on a table or door frame, the case should be able to easily protect the computer. The handle is well stitched and there are no obvious signs of wear yet. The latches are lower quality metal and I see them failing over time (due to the weight of my particular laptop mentioned above) but for now the job is done. All in all, the case is worth the money and should fit most large laptops. /Replacement of desktop computers. I hope it lives up to my original rating in the long run. other items listed above). I know these probably aren't the biggest headphones out there, so other people might have a hard time finding a place to put all their stuff. This is not a downgrade of my rating, just a feature of my particular setup. A pair of smaller earbuds or earbuds will still fit easily.
