Gadgets have become an integral part of the daily life of modern people. Not only smartphones are popular, but also laptops. Today's mobile computers are compact and much lighter than previous generations, making them easier to take with you on the road. Now you can watch a movie, play games, surf the Internet, work with documentation and programs in any convenient place, even if a person is far from home. For easy carrying of the laptop, a special bag is needed to protect the device from shocks and bad weather conditions. Ordinary backpacks and bags will not work, because it is impossible to securely fix a laptop in them, protecting it from mechanical damage. That is why many manufacturers produce products in which, in addition to a laptop, you can place all the accessories necessary for it.

Experts learned the opinion of experts and the preferences of users by selecting the 8 best laptop backpacks that are included in this rating.

How to choose a laptop backpack

1. Manufacturing material. The fabric must be of high quality so that soon after the purchase the backpack does not tear. If you plan to often carry your laptop on the street, then you need to purchase a backpack made of synthetic material with a special waterproof impregnation. This will protect the gadget from water during rain and snow. Remember that moisture is the main enemy of a laptop and can render it inoperative in a short time. Since the backpack will often need to be placed on the floor, the bottom should be strong and easy to clean.
2. Seam quality and protection. Check all seams and harnesses before purchasing. The thread must be strong. This is important to protect your laptop from dust, sand, and other debris that can be found on city streets, especially in the off-season. The ideal option would be additional protection of the seams from dust entering the backpack. If this affects the cost of the product, it will pay off with the long life of the gadget, so you should not save.
3. Protective frame. The backpack must have a protective frame, thanks to which the impact will soften in case of an accidental fall. It can be located both in the walls of the compartment in which the laptop is placed, and in the outer walls of the backpack itself, then not only the gadget, but all accessories will be protected.
4. Backpack size. Before choosing, you need to know the size of the laptop. A device with a diagonal of fifteen or seventeen inches simply will not fit in a backpack for a thirteen-inch laptop. Consider also everything you need that you want to take with you, for this there should also be room in your backpack.
5. Additional compartments. In addition to a laptop, you almost always need to take a charger (power cord), a mouse (sometimes with a rug), disks, if necessary, a USB drive, working documents, and in the case of students, notebooks for lectures, abstracts , books and more. For all this, the backpack has special compartments that allow you to conveniently place things so that they can be easily removed when needed. It is good if the compartments are closed with a zipper. This will save items, especially every little thing, from loss, and you do not have to rummage in your backpack, looking for, for example, a pen or flash drive.
6. Handles and shoulder straps. Although modern laptops are often referred to as ultrabooks, because they weigh less than 2 kg, there are still many devices on the market weighing 2.6 and sometimes 3 kg. Gaming laptops are especially heavy. If we add to this the weight of the portable accessories and other things, then the figure comes out rather big. Therefore, pay special attention to the shoulder straps before purchasing. They should be wide, adjustable and have special pads to relieve pressure from the load. For greater convenience, the backpack should also have a handle that allows you to carry the product in one hand.
