The Amazon Basics backpack’s adjustable, heavily padded, shoulder straps make the backpack comfortable to wear even when loaded with all your gear. Ideal for students, freelancers, travelers, or commuters, the laptop backpack offers a puncture-resistant construction that protects your devices. The backpack’s padded interior features a separate space for holding up to 17-inch laptops and notebooks, as well as a smaller pouch for tablets. A mesh compartment on the left strap provides a quick-access space for cell phones, water bottles, or other small items.

This is a solid backpack with lots of room and compartments. The first compartment has several little dividers to hold your pens, post-it notes, business cards, phone, external drives, power cords, etc. The second compartment is not as deep or wide as the other pockets but goes down the whole length of the backpack.

The third compartment is deep and wide and about 3-4″ at the bottom and will hold a books, folders, and notebooks. The rear compartment has a padded area for the laptop, a shallow pocket and another huge area that’s as big as the 3rd compartment.

In between the 3rd and 4th compartments is a mini-pocket that can hold a phone, iPod, ear buds, and other small items. This thing can hold a lot! On each side of the backpack is a mesh pocket with elastic top. It will hold a 20 oz. bottle of water. Drink containers larger than a 20 oz. water bottle will probably not fit. Now, let’s talk about padding. The front compartment is padded, the handle is padded, the shoulder straps are very well padded and the areas that will be pressing against your shoulder blades and lower back are thickly padded, too.
