Review on πŸŽ’ Targus CitySmart Backpack 15.6 Inch TSB895: Sleek & Versatile Travel Companion by Shelly Daniel

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Good quality, professional compared to other backpacks but small + a few design cues

Pros: - Good bag in terms of build quality - Looks much more professional than a regular backpack; this is actually the main reason i bought it (i work in finance in NYC and my last backpack was wrinkled/looked out of place) - at first i didn't really like the look of the bag but it (in most ) has grown on me (see below where it doesn't) Cons: - Basically, I just wish it was *bigger*! Partly it's my fault for not paying attention to the size, but it's also partly the design of the case itself, which leads to the second downside: the TSA compartment isn't really usable. TSA agents still ask you to take it out, and even if you didn't, 1) it wouldn't save you much time, and 2) the way it's constructed as a separate but thin compartment just adds adding more unnecessary padding that takes up more space - in an already small bag. If they just removed that feature and made a large main compartment, it would make the bag much bigger and more useful. However, I often need to have a second bag on hand for things like gym clothes etc., which is far from ideal, especially when something can still get lost on the subway. I will continue to use this bag before I get bored of its small size but hopefully Targus will come out with a bigger and better version of this bag because these issues aside I like the look and quality of this bag for work. .

Pros
  • Absolutely amazing!
Cons
  • Style 90
