Review on Kensington Contour Computer Backpack K62238B: Stylish and Functional Laptop Bag for Professionals by David Robinson

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Some nice features, but overall a disappointment.

I bought the Mobile Edge Express here at Revain a few years ago; and i really love it. However, I recently decided that I wanted a slightly larger one. So I ordered the Kensington 62238 Contour Backpack. I can already say that I won't like it. He is more; but surprisingly I don't find that I fit in anymore. Do not get me wrong; It has some neat organizational features. I particularly like the dedicated key ring, which the Mobile Edge Express doesn't have. Otherwise, while there are a few extra pockets, some of them are impractical; and now that I've done the male equivalent of cleaning out my purse, I'm fine without her. Also, it's just not comfortable for me. It has a rigid mechanism that sits closer to the back and is meant to provide extra support. To me it's just a hard piece of plastic on the back. It is also not comfortable to feel it on the shoulder and arm. In comparison, there was nothing on the Mobile Edge Express. This device has one of these waist belts; and the Mobile Edge Express doesn't seem to need either as it stays close to my body and fits me well without the extra waist belt. I went to work this morning with the Kensington 62238 Contour backpack. I can tell you with absolute certainty that as soon as I get home this afternoon I'll give my Mobile Edge Express a thorough cleaning to keep it tidy; Wear is not visible at all. Then I give everything back and will never give this brand back.

Pros
  • Consistent test results
Cons
  • Out of style
