Guide Review - Kensington Saddle Bag Sport Computer Case
Anyone who has used backpacks for school know how comfortable they are and easy to carry especially when you are walking any great distance. The Kensington Saddle Bag Sport provides a more casual look to carrying your mobile gear, which is an advantage security-wise. It doesn't shout "I'm carrying a computer".
I had plenty of room for accessories and while the file area was a bit tight; you don't really want to be hauling around a great deal of paperwork when traveling. Just more items to possibly lose.
I found the quick access cell phone pocket on the upper shoulder strap was convenient but if you still have an older and larger style cell phone, it won't fit. Having a pocket for both cell phone and PDA was another benefit, no deciding which gadget goes inside.
The backpack did fit me but it was a bit snug at the top of the shoulders. I had my husband try but it was too tight for him to wear comfortably.
It's a sturdily constructed backpack and water-resistant which comes in handy when traveling outdoors in inclement weather. With an laptop that weighs under 5lbs, the Saddle Bag is comfortable to carry for long period of time. With my usual laptop which weighs just over 7lbs, I did have the feeling of the Saddle Bag getting heavier and heavier over time.
For mobile workers looking to a more casual look for carrying their mobile gear and want a durable backpack-style, the Saddle Bag is a good choice.
