The reviewer found that putting only the laptop into the pack produced a pretty heavy load for carrying. Opening the front flap reveals a clip, two pockets, two pen holders, a mesh pocket, and another large zippered pocket. According to the reviewer, the padded laptop pouch accommodated his huge Dell Inspiron 8000 without difficulty inside the backpack.
The reviewer notes that the laptop pouch is suspended above the bag's bottom and away from the back, helping protect the notebook during impacts or placement. Cinchable sides let the reviewer make the pack thinner and limit item movement, while releasing them creates room for books and papers.
