The finest laptop bags for 2021: PC, Mac or Chromebook satchels and shoulder bags

 



(Pocket-lint) - One of the biggest benefits of using a laptop is being able to operate from home or anywhere else. The portability of a MacBook, Chromebook, Windows laptop or whatever you use makes it a perfect solution to get a bit of productivity out of the office.

That said, as you make your way, you probably don't want to be just carting around an unprotected notebook. You may be afraid of losing it, or you may not want someone looking to flash the worth of your belongings.

If you want the back help and space a backpack brings with it, we've already got a great list of the best backpacks for bringing tech around, but maybe you're more into shoulder bags, satchels and more casual choices. If so, just for you, we've assembled another fantastic list, highlighting some of the best laptop bags around.

Our guide to the best laptop bags to buy today


Eastpak Delegate



Eastpak has been making bags for so long that it's pretty apparent that he knows a thing or two. A classic, the Delegate messenger bag has a thick and heavy strap that only gets more comfortable on the shoulder the more you use it, and plenty of pockets for your bits and bobs.

It's also well padded to make sure that when you go, valuables such as laptops are not bashed around too much. The normal construction standard of Eastpak is also present and right, with sturdy zips and powerful parts, ensuring that you won't worry about replacing it any time soon.

Moshi Urbana Laptop Briefcase



Jumping into the world of bags that would be really suitable from the boardroom to the office for business environments, this Moshi briefcase is a really impressive number. Up to 15-inch laptops will easily fit, with loads of space to spare for your charger and other belongings. To ensure nothing gets bashed, there are countless small pockets for safer storage and cushioning inside.

It is really well-made, and allows you to separate different parts according to your preferences, which we really like, such as the shoulder strap and cushioning. Plus good weatherproofing ensures that it is a practical option as well. It really impressively stood up to our use, making it a perfect choice if you're looking for a commuter or work bag, and it's available to suit your style in a variety of colours.

Mobile Edge ECO Laptop Messenger



Mobile Edge's ECO messenger might be a great choice if you are searching for a lighter look than Eastpak's pack, and are also willing to try and reduce your use of man-made materials. The all-cotton canvas is hardy, with plenty of pockets and intelligent dividers, if you want to show it quickly, including a small window for ID.

A dedicated, specially-padded compartment is also available to carry your computer, to give you the peace of mind you want as you walk about.

Targus CityLite Pro Slim Briefcase



However if you look at the more business-like end of the market, you might want something even thinner and more restrained in its presentation. Targus's CityLite Pro Lim is appropriately called, with a super-think interface that is excellent in a technical setting.

It's a great shout for the moving worker, whether you're going to a meeting where you need your computer, or are clearly enough of a digital native that you really just need your laptop in a bag to have a full mobile workstation ready.

AmazonBasics 15.6-Inch Laptop and Tablet Bag



Under the AmazonBasics header, Amazon's line of quick efficient items is one of its hidden weapons; they almost always equal the value of far more costly branded goods. It's no different from this bag. It's not at all flashy, and there's a fair amount of Amazon branding on it but if you're okay with that at a cut-price rate, you get a pretty nice bag.

Specifically made for laptops, it is well padded, and you can also pick it up in a wide range of sizes to ensure it is suitable for your specific needs.

WaterField Executive Leather Messenger



The above bags vary a little in design and price, but they are all fairly inexpensive alternatives. We went to the very luxurious end of the market for our last pick, however to give you a sense of what you might find. In all shapes and sizes, WaterField makes a selection of beautifully made leather and canvas bags, but this classy Executive Leather Messenger is our favourite.

It's a look that can be dressed up or dressed down, handmade from full-grain leather, making it a perfect bag for life, and there are countless lovely style touches, from its distinctive clasp to its handle's careful positioning. Within it, there are several padded pockets to store both your machine and any accessories, and it just oozes performance. Plus, depending on how large your laptop is, you can switch between two sizes.

Peak Design Everyday Messenger



Peak Design produces a number of great bags that are great if you need to pack a wide range of items while you're on the go.

When it comes to laptops, we like the Daily Messenger, which has internal sleeves to make it very convenient to store a 13-inch laptop, tablet or papers. It makes it super simple to pick out your pack, which we really appreciate.

    Night Mode on iPhone: Everything You Need to Know

    Image
    The newest iPhones from Apple, iPhone 11, iPhone 11 Pro, and iPhone 11 Pro Max, are fitted with a new feature called Night mode, designed to take crisp, clear pictures even if lighting conditions, such as at night, are low.   Unfortunately, Night mode is not supported on the   iPhone SE   or   iPhone XR . It remains an exclusive feature for the ‌iPhone 11‌ line of phones. As the name suggests, Night mode allows you to take pictures at night, with lighting that has never been possible on an iPhone before, thanks to new hardware and new machine learning algorithms. Although Night Mode brightens photos, it also preserves the feeling of night time, balancing an image's light and dark elements. For a while now, Android smartphone manufacturers such as Google and Samsung have had unique modes to brighten up evening shots, and Apple is on equal footing with these other smartphone cameras with the 2019 iPhones. What is Night Mode? Night mode is an automatic setting that take...

    Best 2021 Xbox controllers: Get the advantage of these third-party and official pads with these

    Image
      (Pocket-lint) - The Xbox controller has a pretty remarkable lineage already - following the very unusual design embraced by the original console's chunky gamepad, the Xbox 360 introduced a new type that's stood the test of time. It has been updated only marginally over the Xbox One years, and for the Xbox Series X and S as well, it has remained very similar. That's a testament to a great deal of architecture, but it also has some limitations. Picking up a new controller might be a game-changer, because it's not quite the right shape for you, or whether you want some extra buttons and features.
