Fits Alienware m15 - Five tips tested!

TL;DRWinner = My choice is Tomantek https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073QFMPK1/Full Story: I recently bought an m15 and spent a lot of time on it, after that to look for a case/sleeve for him. Hoping to save time for other m15 owners. I'm having trouble finding one big enough to fit the m15's unusual size, but small enough to fit the dedicated laptop compartment of my Wenger Synergy backpack. Wenger Synergy Backpack, Gray (GA-7305-14F00) https://www.amazon.com/Wenger-Synergy-Backpack-Gray-GA-7305-14F00/ I ended up finding 5 pouches/cases that fit the m15 . but some of them were too wide. for a backpack. And by "wide" I mean it sticks out on a 90 degree turn and I can't zip my pack up. In any case, I will share my findings with other m15 owners. Here are 5 grommets I bought for testing: 1. ZinMark 15.6" Waterproof Case for 15.4" MacBook Pro A1286 / Retina A1398 and Most 15.6" Ultrabook Netbooks, (15.67 x 11.02 inch), dark gray https://www .amazon.com/gp/product/B0733B1FF5/2. Lacdo 15.6" laptop case compatible with Acer Aspire/Predator, Toshiba, Dell Inspiron, ASUS P series, HP Pavilion, Lenovo, MSI GL62M, Chromebook laptop case, waterproof, gray https://www.amazon.com/gp/ product /B01MRYRI9N/3 Evecase Laptop Sleeve 1515.6" Diamond Foam Splash & Shock Resistant Neoprene Universal Zipper Sleeve for Dell HP Gaming Chromebook Ultrabook Laptop - Black https://www.amazon.com/gp/ product/B00LFJ88SQ/4 MOSISO Laptop Case Compatible with 15-15.6" MacBook Pro Ultrabook Tablet Netbook Small Body Shockproof Waterproof Diamond Foam Neoprene Sleeve Black https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/ B071VX1YZM/5. TOMANTEK [Best Comfortable Laptop Bag] TOMANTEK 15-15.6 inch PU Polyester Slow Recovery Sponge Shockproof and Water-Resistant Laptop Bag/Laptop Case Ultrabook Tablet/Leather Case Blackhttps://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B073QFMPK1/ Note. For comparison, my particular m15 laptop weighs exactly 5 pounds 1.0 ounces (2.3 kg). Zinkmark is a beautiful dark gray color with two metal zippers. The hole widens along the long edge. It has a nice fluffy inside and an additional zipped pocket running the full length of the sleeve. I prefer two zippers instead of one because it allows me to zip up with the power supply attached. Plus, if a zipper breaks, you're not screwed. Unfortunately, due to the depth of the m15 (measured from the front to the back of the laptop) there is some resistance to the zipper, so it's a bit narrow and at 16 inches wide doesn't fit in my backpack. Weight = 8.7 oz (246 g) Total weight with m15 laptop = 5 lbs, 9.7 oz (2.54 kg) I like the Lacdo with its extra pockets (two front zippered pockets + one back pocket. You carry your laptop just take with you or have enough room for it in your backpack/briefcase. But at 16.5" wide it doesn't fit in mine. Also, you're really limited to thin items in zippered pockets (pens, notepads, USB drives, etc.). ) A travel mouse would free up a lot of space (unless you have a Microsoft mouse that folds flat - which I use) Those extra pockets add a lot of weight It's the heaviest of all Weight = 11.4 oz ( 324 g) total weight with m15 laptop = 5 lbs 12.6 oz (2.63 kg) Evecase is great if you don't mind neoprene.The pyramid-shaped exterior pattern offers good crush protection, but since only the tips of each pyramid make contact with the have a surface on which to place them d, it slides easily on a car seat, for example. A pointy neoprene, it's fairly thin when empty and fairly thick when storing a laptop. In addition, the "Evecase" logo is embroidered on one side of the soft felt lining. This can cause scratches or scuffs on your laptop over time. Although I like the rubber zip, there is only one zip and I prefer two. Weight = 7.8 ounces (220 g). Total weight with m15 laptop = 5 lbs, 8.9 oz (2.52 kg). MOSISO is identical to the Evecase above, except that it has two metal zippers instead of one rubber zipper. It also comes with a smaller version suitable for a travel mouse, portable hard drive, cables, etc. It's too small for a power supply. Weight (without optional carrying case) = 7.8 oz (220 g). Total weight with Notebook m15 = 5 lbs, 8.9 oz (2.52 kg). Finally, my personal favourite/winner. The Tomantek case has everything I wanted: light weight (it's the lightest of the group), two zippers, nice padding, not flimsy, and it fits in my backpack - barely. It has the most interesting exterior texture and feel. It's grippy so doesn't slide over car seats as easily as others and has a hard/spongy feel. While it doesn't have any extra pockets or pouches, I'm fine with that as the rest of my backpack is for it. The case height is perfect for the m15, and with the laptop inside, the room to maneuver is about 2cm (a finger width) across the width. While the bag can be Β½ narrower for a tighter fit (and fits better in my backpack), inserting and removing a laptop from such a tight-fitting bag can be a little awkward. So I like the fact that there is room for width wobble. I also like that the teeth of the zipper are not visible at all when closed. It is possible that this will prevent the ingress of moisture or splashes. For me it is a guardian. Weight = 7.7 ounces (218 g). Total weight with m15 laptop = 5 lbs, 8.8 oz (2.52 kg)
