Great features and price.
This case had all the features I was looking for. There were no others like it in the same price range.

Bad Design - Poor Quality
Strap always twists and slip. Location of the strap hooks is wrongly placed resulting in an unbalanced position; tilts forwards. Handles poorly sewn; they detached in the first 3 months. Would not recommend this product. Zero Stars

Perfect Work Accessory
It’s roomy enough to put my laptop, iPad, and all accessories in without being too heavy.

Very Underwhelmed...
Very little protective padding and the sling system doesn't look very convincing.
Capacity and pockets are sufficient.

Response from Staples :
The SafePort Sling is part of our drop protection system. This system works by suspending the laptop inside the case so that it does not come in contact with the bottom of the case. This helps protect the laptop from drops by absorbing and then dispersing the energy of impacts. For a little video on this system please go to this link https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=2ahUKEwiH6-vxiIH6AhVBBTQIHYJUBwoQwqsBegQIBBAB&url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.youtube.com%2Fwatch%3Fv%3DN_Da-mIssWI&usg=AOvVaw31sNDpeQ6XyGbVHQF3obMQ

Perfect for my laptop!
My 15” laptop fit perfectly in this bag. It seems very padded so that I feel that my laptop is going to be safe in it when I go back and forth from my home and the office. I can also put more stuff in it because it has a lot of space and pockets! I love how organized I feel with all the stuff I can put in the bag. I feel like I can even throw it around and my laptop wil...

Well designed
This handy travel case is really well thought out. There are ample pockets for laptop, document folders, travel documents, power cords, and anything else you may want to keep hand. The bag itself is slim and lightweight, and it can be carried by the handles on top or the shoulder strap which has a little padded section to fit your shoulder. This case really does make ...

Great Briefcase!
My husband recently started his own business and was using a bulky backpack for all his items. We switched him to a Targus Mobile Elite Briefcase after hearing of the brand from my Uncle who is a businessman. Hubby is SO happy! It's stylish and he's not embarassed to carry it. Has plenty of room for his laptop, tablet, business cards and more. The fabric also seems...

Awesome for travel
This laptop case is going to be awesome to travel with. The compartment that holds the laptop unzips completely while leaving the laptop in a sleeve so it doesn't go flying out. This will make checkpoints much faster. There is a strap on the back of it to put it over your suitcase handle, and it also comes with a detachable shoulder strap. There is plenty of pockets for...

Beautiful bag!
I got this for my daughter to use for work. She loves the bag. She said it has lots of room in it to carry everything she needs along with her computer. It is quality construction and should hold up very well for a long time.

The bag is spacious with two large zippered compartments and one smaller space for accessories. One of the larger compartments is perfectly designed for travel check-in; I can open it for inspection without even having to remove my electronics from the bag. The...

Great for flying
So many compartments! This is perfect for me because i travel more often then I’d like, and bring my lab top (plus tons of other things of course!) I love that it has a removable shoulder strap. It even has a strap to attach it to your suitcase for ease in travel. Material is durable. Fits my MacBook perfectly. Classic black design… could be used for men or women.
