I carry a lot of stuff to my school, and this backpack was able to not only carry that, but more! Great quality for the price, and i been using it for a while without any problem, a lot of space too, THIS BACKPACK WAS TRULY WORTH EVERY DOLLAR!!!

This is a very light and comfortable backpack with lots of room and compartments! It does not have the cords pass through since that was the description for, I believe, Octave II, but who cares. I guess they just forgot to correct the description. I got a couple of these in different colors for myself and also bought more as gifts as it is a quality easy carry backpack. It is very good for everyday and for travel since it is so light and roomy. It is also very easy to be organized with this backpack. You can take your laptop in it too. I love traveling with it since it's so light and comfortable. It has a lining on the inside and is well made too. I am trusting this brand especially since they even have a lifetime warranty on it. :) [I don't care about the sweepstakes although looks like I'm getting a free entry in it for writing this review. I just wanted to write this review. Didn't know it enters me anywhere. ha ha]

I've been using Targus laptop bags for years for work and before that, school. This one replaced an older one and it's everything the older one was with the addition of the smaller front pocket which is great. The padded straps, padded laptop compartment, and several front pockets make it great to carry my laptop to work - plus my work phone, pens, iPad, AirPods, and miscellaneous items.
I've been using this one for a few weeks and durability so far has been just fine. I don't expect any issues there since I typically use my backpacks for 2-3 years and my previous Targus laptop bags had no issues.

This bag has a padded labtop pocket, addition device pocket and the middle section had organized sectioned pockets for phones or small notepads. The smaller pocket still had plenty of storage room and the handles are very cushioned and sturdy! My only complaint that it didn’t come in additional colors, I would buy again if ever my current one fails me.

This bag has so many spaces for storage that I almost get lost in it! And that’s the best part. I can organize my cables, work devices, gaming devices and more with plenty of space.

Great backpack! Perfect for my small laptop. Fits great "under the seat in front of you" on the plane.

I love this backpack — it's very quickly become my go-to bag for every day travel. There's A LOT of room and I really like the fact that each pocket has its own space to actually put stuff in, rather than it already feeling full if I only have one pocket filled. Super stylish color too.

I absolutely love this and bought two. The straps are padded so it puts no discomfort whatsoever across your shoulders. Lot's of well made interior compartments too. Great for mt weekend getaways.

Strap broke within 20 days of purchase. Bestbuy won't accept the return as it is outside the return window and Targus warranty claim requires me to send the bag back to them.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Great value under twenty dollars. I use this daily to tote my laptop, tablet, folders, notebooks, etc. Perfect size and right amount of compartments. Second time purchasing. 1st one lasted 5 years before zipper issues. Happy camper.
