Alienware Vindicator Gaming Laptop Backpack, 18-Inch, Black/Silver (AWVBP18)

I bought this bookbag for college. I have the Alienware 17 R5 and it fits perfectly in the protective section along with my Mechanical Keyboard. I can carry my entire kit in this bookbag: Laptop, Keyboard, Laptop Charger, Microphone, Mouse, Surge Protector, and Wireless Headphones all in the first 2 sections. However, with the bulkiness of all this, I can only fit like 1 Textbook in the front ( or at least comfortably fit, as I'm scared to stretch it out to far) so for carrying a laptop kit plus a bunch of books, I wouldn't recommend this book bag. But for my purposes, carrying the whole kit plus 1 or 2 books, it works splendidly.Edit: Rarely have I had such praise for such a simple device. This bookbag is perfection. I have carried over 50 pounds of kit in it. I have fit (at one time), a PS5, an Xbox One, and a Laptop in it. I have carried it on hiking trips. This bookbag has been absolutely bombproof. Not only have I never had a single problem with the zippers or pouches. But this thing makes carrying 32 IBs (the usual weight I have in it with my laptop equipment) an absolute breeze. Something about its design, makes the weight of the items less. It's like magic. And it's not a Pseudo-effect either, I have tested putting the same equipment in different book bags, and the weight was significantly increased. I've had other people wear the bookbag, and they too have been thoroughly impressed. When you lift it up to put it on your back, you feel the weight, but once you put your arms through them straps, it just disappears. Did I mention that it's waterproof? Actually, legitimately waterproof. I've carried it on hiking trips, I've carried it through tropical storms, and it has kept my equipment 100% dry. I've never thrown in a pool or anything, but I'm still thoroughly impressed. This is the greatest bookbag that ever existed. Some of the best $100 I've ever spent. And I've sung its praises to multiple people throughout the years. Never did I ever think such a simple product could be worthy of so much praise. But it's worth it. BUY THIS, you won't regret it. Even if you don't need a laptop bookbag, this bookbag is just excellent for everything.

Held together well for years and my laptop survived an end over end flip in a car crash. 10/10 would recommend. It was able to fit my gaming laptop that had great big vents coming out the back. The straps were but I only used it at the time for college. I still have it but now use another bag as normal day to day use and use this for packing computer hardware around.

At the moment of write this review i have exactly a Year with my Backpack Allienware Vindicator of 18". The quality of this product is excellent, the materials, the design complies the highest standars to take care of your equipment. In my case i use this backpack to carry my Desktop PC Allienware X51 R2, and fits without Problem, and enough room for my Wireless Keyboard with touch pad of medium size, four controllers logitech (F series), all the cables(HDMI, Optic, USB's, etc), batteries and adapters (Hubs) that i need for play with my family and friends the weekends. The bag included is perfect for my AC Adapter. The design are fantastic and i wear it with proud. Is comfortable and very resistant. I have to recommend this product without doubt to anyone that wants to protect their Allienware and get out of home with all the neccesary.

With it being an Alienware brand, I knew it would be nice, but this went above and beyond!I was looking for a backpack to store my ASUS ROG G751 laptop, which was an issue because it has a 17-inch screen. This backpack comfortably fits it into one of the softest pockets I have ever felt. It still had much room for camera's, our tablet computer, mouse, school books, paper folders and utensils.I do not recommend putting all of that in however. The backpack can handle it, but your back/sholders will hurt.The best part about this is that it will fit under your seat on an airplane, should you need it to. It is also resilient to some weather, though I haven't been in any bad weather with it. Would definitely recommend!Pro's: Massive storage, nice materials, comfortable shoulder straps, many pockets.Con's: A cellphone pocket on the straps would be kind of nice

I bought a 17" Lenovo "mobile workstation" and needed a pack that would fit the laptop. I read a few reviews that suggested this Alienware pack would work. It does, with room to spare. I've only used it a few times so far but it appears to be sturdy and well made. If all you're carrying is a laptop, mouse, charging cable, phone charger, phone and maybe a few books or journals it'll work well. I don't think there's enough room for the laptop and clothes or other overnight gear, but for a laptop-centric EDC, it'll work well.

Looks much smaller than the dimensions posted to the web site. They were first very scary for me. The way it sits on my back is perfect and I know what I'm talking about after spending a dozen of years in geological and geophysical field trips. Great design. Although the space inside is not well designed for the small every day stuff that I have to carry with me. The surface around laptop could be softer for sure, but it's way better than in the Alienware case sold here. I got both and I'm sure I need to do my homework with a very soft fabrics to protect my laptop from wearing out after carrying it in the case. The backpack, one more time, is better. I think I will keep it. For a 6' man it's really convenient. I almost don't feel my laptop weight.
