Review on Travel With Ease: Brenthaven Metrolite Backpack For 15.6 Inch Devices, Perfect Plane Carry On Bag With Rugged Protection In Black by Gregory Shorunov

Excellent quality backpack from Brenthaven. Looks and feels professional and you will not feel self-conscious carrying this pack into a meeting in the office. This is a pack that is perfect for both men and women.I spent quite some time researching commuter backpacks before finally settling on the MetroLite.I had previously ordered the Osprey Pixel Daypack, which in itself is another excellent bag, but found it too long, and did not have enough pockets for my needs, so I returned it and went with the Brenthaven MetroLite.It is large enough to fit a 15" laptop without any issues, along with a tablet and maybe a couple of books. The straps are thick and the pack is very comfortable to wear.It has a zipper in the center that allows you to open the bag in a butterfly fashion so that you do not have to remove your laptop when going through security at the airport. The bag also fits under the seat on a commuter plane. I also like the fact that The back slip pocket unzips allowing you to slip it over the handle of a roller type suit case.The dedicated AC adapter pocket on the bottom is somewhat limited in size, measuring in size of 1-1/2 inches deep, 11" wide, 3-1/2" tall. So if you have one of the old big brick power adapters, it's not going to fit. With that being said, I use a newer Lenovo at work, which has a fairly small power supply so that's not a problem for me. I normally carry an iPhone and Android phone charger in that pocket.The front organizer panel opens up nicely and has lots of room. I carry an iPhone 5C and a Samsung S3 phone, which fit in the pockets fine, and leaves another pocket open for a portable hard drive, or back up charger.It has another large pocket behind that, and a nice mesh pocket on the inside part of the flap itself. The key holder is of nice quality and seems durable. The pack also can sit straight up when set down without any issue.The pack is very well padded and I feel confident that if I drop it, my equipment will be perfectly fine.As far as the size goes, for me it's the perfect size, not too big, but not too small.As far as traveling goes, you should be able to pack a laptop, tablet, some notebooks and such, and maybe a shirt or two, but that's about it.All in all, this is an excellent product, it’s very well made, and I have no doubts that it’ll last me a long time. Highly recommended.
