    The zip on the backpack is behind the shoulder straps, super inconvenient. I sold my on marketplace after 1 use.

    • Jamiea on 08/06/2023 - 22:30

        For security reason I believe? Some zippers tend to break open by itself after a few years of intensive use. With this concealed zip design, the person will not longer need to worry about his laptop falling out because the opening is securely attached to his back.

          Backpacks for motorcycles are like this too. There's no chance of losing anything from the main bag compartment as long as you're wearing it.

      I've had the bag for 12 months now. I strangely like the zip on the back. Easy to use, just flip the arm straps out of the way.

      Also the joints holding the straps would give way pretty soon considering that the straps need to be moved aside EVERYTIME the bag needs to be opened

    Anyone used the backpack with 16inch MacBook Pro?

    • CheeryCheapskate on 09/06/2023 - 09:56

      I just got one for my 16-inch Macbook but I'm taking a gamble. In questions, the dimensions are:

      "This bag is made of water-resistant outer material, it fits most laptops with screen sizes up to 15.6" (Max laptop dimension: 380mm x 260mm x 25mm), and the dimension of the backpack is 310mm x 140mm x 430mm (WxDxH)."

    • fastnet on 21/06/2023 - 15:37

      Just got my Essential Backpack 15 and fits the MacBook Pro 16" fits perfectly. The zipper design is strange though as it's behind the straps, didn't expect that. Should've looked at the pics carefully. But can't complain for the price!

  • Techefy on 09/06/2023 - 02:31

    I purchased this back-back earlier. But is is very small and I looks like a tortoise when Im wearing it. If you are around 6 feet or higher reconsider before buying. Just my 2 cents. 🐢🐢🐢

      Haha that's funny, my wife got one from work but she doesn't wear it anymore so now I get to use this back- back (I'm 6.1 feet). It is a bit small and now that you mention it I feel like a tortoise. 🐢🐢

    Sometimes I wonder why would people buy the laptop sleeve, as it does not come with the space to put in accessories like mouse and charger… but, I guess everyone is unique and has their own needs?

    • flagger on 09/06/2023 - 07:14

      I just bought the 15" sleeve because I lug my work laptop between the office and home. I travel on a motorcycle using the dell essentials backup but it's not particularly water resistant. I did get caught out once by a random shower, so having a neoprene sleeve will add an extra layer of protection.

      I also use a dock in the office and the supplied power supply at home so I only need to pack the laptop. Some of the comments say the sleeve is big enough to pack the power brick and a mouse anyway?

      • kaneoriley on 09/06/2023 - 09:54
        +2

        This, we do 2 days at the office, 3 at home, so I have a dock and desk setup at each and have no reason to cart anything besides the MacBook around. I'd say it's a pretty common thing these days.

        • BigLeviathan on 09/06/2023 - 10:01

          Thank you for your responses; that make sense now!

        Fold up a plastic bag and stuff it in the pocket of your backpack. If it looks like rain then wrap your laptop in the plastic bag before putting it in the backpack. I've been riding a motorcycle for close to 20 years now and never had a problem with electronics in my bag getting wet.

      The specs listed on the page state that it will fit a laptop with maximum dimensions of 325mm x 215mm x 20mm.

      Find the dimensions for your MacBook and you should be able to work out if it will fit or not.

  • cookie2 on 09/06/2023 - 12:49

    Anyone able to give any feedback on the 15inch backpack? In particular whether it fits much other stuff besides the laptop. I'm thinking delicious food stuff to get me through the office days, container or large book etc.

    • cookie2 on 09/06/2023 - 13:24

      All good. Bit the bullet. Unfortunately I'll have to just eat out when I'm in the office instead of bringing the whole kitchen. Damn.

      • flagger on 09/06/2023 - 15:20
        +2

        It's bigger than it looks. Can fit a laptop, takeaway containers and a jumper with ease in the main compartment. The front pocket can hold a fair bit too. It's not a rucksack, but the use case is for light travel. The only thing is the drink pocket can only hold slim water bottles.

        • cookie2 on 09/06/2023 - 21:54

          Awesome!, Well that works for me. I like the option of more walking when I feel like it. Single sided options like satchels do nothing for my back and posture. Should be big enough but if not, I'll still make do. Peace.

    • jeffreychow on 09/06/2023 - 18:49

      This Dell Essential backpack is designed for light duty only. Linning inside are not very durable. In my opinion, there is just not enough padding on the bottom of the bag to protect the laptop from being damaged. $16.50 at this quality is not bad but defintely not worth it at RRP.

    Just got the briefcase, probably stating the obvious but you get what you pay for. It's okay but the padding is very minimal, nothing special, it's $10 don't expect more than that!

  • rumblytangara on 17/06/2023 - 16:16

    The backpack is garbage.

    I noticed the other comments saying that it's a bit awkward because the laptop compartment zip is behind the shoulder straps, but thought this was okay for a compartment that isn't accessed frequently (take laptop to work and take it out once, return it once).

    But… it is both the laptop compartment AND the main carrying compartment. Basically you need to access the zip all the time, and to do so you need to flip both shoulder straps around to the front.

    There's a small front pocket zip, but it's not big enough for much beyond a phone and wallet.

    • the discombobulated… on 21/06/2023 - 10:20

      The backpack is garbage.

      Negatory.

      I have this backpack.

      It cops around 10kg worth of shopping per hit without complaint.

      It's fine and the arrangement of straps is just dandy.

      • rumblytangara on 21/06/2023 - 13:25

        What are you shopping for- lead bricks, or just pouring milk into it from cartons? Because it's tiny. No idea how you can get 10kg of normal groceries into it.

        The quality of materials is higher than expected for a $10 backpack, but I will stand by the statement that the design is terrible.

        This was going to be my kid's school bag for when he starts carrying a laptop. It's so constrained in function (quick access to main compartment) that it'll probably get tossed into the nearest donations bin- maybe someone else will find it usable.

        • the discombobulated… on 21/06/2023 - 14:13

          3L milk + 2 x 1.25L bottles (though I have a strong memory that I once got 3 in there).

          Add to that cans, jars and other misc bits.

          The bag is still in one piece and doesn't appear to be used.

          • rumblytangara on 21/06/2023 - 14:19

            @the discombobulated panda: I'm impressed that all fit.

            Just had another look at the pack… it won't work as a kid's laptop bag even if the design was okay for frequent access.

            The sleeve section means that every time you put the bag down, the laptop bumps against the floor. So for a kid, eventually one corner will smash.

            My other laptop packs are designed so that the laptop is held off the floor.

            I guess it was too much to hope for from a $10 or $15 bag. It's going into a charity bin. I really have to learn to stop jumping onto cheap OzBargain deals!

      I wouldn't have paid more, like has been mentioned, the briefcase is only worth about $10, but I got a call on Friday from StarTrack saying they were here (and Aus Post app was showing it was onboard for delivery), so I went downstairs. Waited for a bit while the driver rummaged around in the back of the van only for him to say sorry, I can't find the package, it's saying it's onboard so maybe another driver will deliver it shortly.

      They delivered it on Monday lol. So yay StarTrack!

  • the discombobulated… on 21/06/2023 - 10:41

    It should be noted that Dell appear to be giving a discount of $1 PER ORDER so if ordering multiple things you get them even cheaper if you order them one at a time.

    Thus the backpack becomes $15.50 and the sleeve $10. :)
