3 Years Later and It's Still Good

Reviewed in the United States on November 19, 2023

I purchased this back in 2020 and couldn't be more pleased with my decision. This laptop bag offers a perfect blend of practicality and style. The build quality is exceptional, providing robust protection for my laptop while ensuring easy portability.

The spacious interior comfortably accommodates my 17.3-inch laptop, and the additional pockets are a fantastic feature for organizing accessories such as chargers, cables, and even a few documents. The durable zippers and well-padded compartments inspire confidence that my device is secure and shielded from any potential bumps or scratches.

In terms of value for money, I got this when it was about $19. It makes sense the price increased, but it's not that much of an increase. It delivers functionality, durability, and style without breaking the bank. I highly recommend this laptop bag to anyone in need of a reliable and affordable solution for safeguarding their larger laptops while on the go.

Decent bag for the price but the liner feels more like plastic than nylon.

Reviewed in the United States on April 4, 2024

Decent bag for the price. The smaller front zipper only has one zipper tab that opens from left to right instead of two that meet in the middle like the main compartment, the three pockets inside the front zipper compartment are set high and are not very deep, and the interior liner feels like plastic and crinkles.

I was pleasantly surprised at the build quality of this laptop case. It is lightweight, padded well and very roomy for my 15.6" laptop. Also, it has several pockets for extra stuff you may need to carry. Overall, I am satisfied with this purchase.

Just what the tablet ordered

I was looking for a decent carrier for my (already protected) Samsung Galaxy S9 tablet, something that would include any needed extras (trackball, charger, etc) and ran across the Amazon Basics Shoulder Bag carrying case. The more I looked at it, the more I realized its value and capabilities. Bang for the buck, this unit is unbeatable. The material feels water resistant, very sturdy and should last a long time without getting ratty.

It looks to be quite sturdy, has three pockets in the main compartment with more than enough room to keep my BT keyboard separate from my tablet and any other item of that size handy. The front has two zippered pockets-the front smaller one has enough room for 5"X7" items and has stylish reinforced stitching on both sides to avoid any tears. The larger pocket is absolutely spacious (9"X11") with a couple of straps for pens (or other stylus) and a couple smaller interior pouches that might fit a small BT mouse or other device. The shoulder strap is wide enough and padded so as not to dig into your shoulder and is more than strong enough to carry everything without issue. If just handles are all you need for carrying, these are plenty strong and comfortable and the shoulder strap is easily removed and stored.

I would highly recommend this for anyone who needs a shoulder bag capable of carrying an 11" or possibly even a 12+" tablet or other device of that size. Once again, Amazon Basics strikes the right balance of price and value.

A decent bag for the price; Get a size up from your laptop's size.

Reviewed in the United States on January 26, 2024

Size: 14 InchStyle: 1-packVerified Purchase

The bag is decent enough for the price. It is certainly worth more than what it cost. The material is not the toughest, however it seems it should hold for at least a year, maybe more depending on your usage and how much abuse it receives. There are just enough pockets/compartments and space for your computer a notebook/pad, and just the bare essentials. The padded computer compartment is sufficient for CAREFUL use and carry; probably will not save the computer from damage if the bag were handled too roughly or dropped (especially if your laptop's case is plastic). However, this is all purely speculation and completely subjective, I have not performed any drop tests. Im simply basing that on a comparison to the padding in other bags I've owned or seen (typically of a higher quality and cost). The padding is limited to just the faces (top and bottom of the computer), there is no padding around the sides (outside edges). This leaves the corners of your laptop subject to damage by possibly catching the bag on something while carrying it (Getting a larger bag could reduce risk of damage to the corners). The compartments are pretty tight so dont expect to carry anything bulky. I could get my standard size mouse in there but it was bulging through the bag. I purchased the 14" bag for a 14" computer, and it was very tight; had to force the zipper to get it closed around the laptop. After a few uses, it loosened up a bit, not much but just enough to where I wasnt struggling. Still needed two hands to zip it closed though.

I recommend getting the next size up bag from your laptop size. That will certainly help alleviate that issue. I would also recommend getting a folding mouse, as that will fit a lot nicer and without the bulging.

Overall, it is worth the cost. But just recognize you arent paying for an expensive bag, so set expectations realistically.

Best value ... Lasts longer than bags 2 - 3x the price.

Reviewed in the United States on February 15, 2024

Size: 15.6 InchStyle: 1-packVerified Purchase

The media could not be loaded.

I have bought many laptop bags over the past few years ... and in most cases, $40 - $60 bags have zippers which break after a few months. My last bag was made of thick, ballistic nylon and had multiple pockets and compartments for $58. Sadly, the zipper came off the track after only 5 months. This Amazon basics bag was its replacement. I had one just like it a few years ago, so I bought it again.

The zippers on this will last. My previous Amazon Basics bag I had to throw out ... not because the zippers failed but because the inner compartments started to tear away. It lasted over a year, which for $16 is pretty phenomenal. I use my laptop bag daily at work and at least 10 - 12 business trips involving planes, cars, etc. Simply put ... for the price, this bag will last!

The downside is that there is little/no padding anywhere on this bag. Even the main laptop compartment has a very light padded back. Likely not enough to protect your computer, if dropped from waist height. But enough that if you bang it lightly into a door, it won't crack or break.

The shoulder strap has no padding, which can be uncomfortable and the handles have no padding or velcro. The bag is also not at all waterproof, or even water resistant. If you get caught in a rain storm, everything inside will get wet.

I was surprised at how many compartments there are:
- #1 is a smaller pocket on the front of the bag, good for charging cables, aspirin bottles, etc.

- #2 fits an I-Pad or notebook or reading book. It has 3 small pockets for business cards, battery packs, etc. and 3 loops for pens.

- #3 fits a standard-sized laptop and has 2 other compartments made of a very thin fabric which you can use to store papers, reports, folders, etc.

There is also a back loop, which is great for stacking on luggage because it will slide over a pop up handle, allowing you to pull the stack of luggage easily without it falling off.

I expect that this will last 1 - 2 years of daily use, which for $16 is a good value. Sure, there are better bags out there ... but nothing in this low price range. This will outlast many more expensive bags. If your computer is very expensive, you may want to consider getting a more padded/protective bag. However, for the average user, this will do fine. I am glad I ordered it ... while it looks basic and not fancy, it goes as well with a suit as with casual wear. I hope my video, pictures and honest review after using the product while traveling over the last few weeks was helpful to you.

Amazon Basics 15.6-Inch Laptop Case. Fits our laptop perfectly, and all the accessories. Well padded, lots of pockets. Haven't had it long enough to judge durability, but I'd say it will last as long or longer than any out there. Fast shipping. I'm pleased.

This is all you need if you own an IPAD

This does what it needs to do and then some. The case is made of good material and the stiticng is strong. The 3 pockets are perfect for anything youll need for a light day of work or to just run an errand with some personal stuff in tow. The padding in the main compartment is good enogh to protect a light drop or bang, but you get what you pay for with protection in mind. ( I suggest being careful with any eletronics in any bag unless its a bag created for extreme drops and bangs. )
Yould should get this bag for light work.

Great Commuter Bag!

Reviewed in the United States on April 9, 2024

Size: 15.6 InchStyle: 1-packVerified Purchase

I got this bag mainly because I didn't want to use my backpack just for my laptop, and because of the price. I usually have good luck with Amazon Basics, and boy did this bag live up to my expectations! The main compartment is nice and big and can handle a larger sized laptop. The padding is lacking a little in the bag, but the main compartment is big enough that I just put my laptop sleeve in the bag as an extra measure of protection. The other two pockets are great for storing your phone, wallet, keys, and phone charger and pens. I am very happy with this bag!
