OspreyNebula Commuter Backpack, BlackBluesignBluesignBluesign

Best backpack I've ever owned. Very intuitive design. I use this for a 16" laptop and supplies to travel for a few days at a time. It's mostly comfortable, objectively better than most and it breathes well.The laptop sleeve/compartment is rigid and protective, the laptop itself is suspended above the bottom of the bag so if you were to drop it onto its bottom, theoretically, it will not damage the laptop. There are some other zippered sleeves/pockets within the laptop compartment but it gets tight so other than a few small papers and the laptop itself, you probably won't get much out of it. But remember, I'm using a big and heavy 16" gaming laptop so it may be more useful if you have a small laptop.I also love the outermost cinchedown compartment. Super convenient for items you want to grab quickly without dealing with zippers and fumbling through other items inside the bag. Can be loose enough to roll up a hoodie or tightened down as securely as you need.Only downsides are that the sunglasses compartment could be softer, and the waist strap is basically useless. The chest strap is great though!

I looked online and in-person for the biggest possible "personal item" and every day backpack for walking around the city with heavy stuff on my back. I have shoulder problems and city packs are usually great for pockets and items but they aren't so great for your body and back. This pack has it all.I read some reviews about this pack that honestly didn't make any sense, so that's why I'm leaving a review. By the way, I bought two bags so I can say they both are exactly the same.1. The back opens into a clam and it's super easy to deal with.2. The shoulder straps are so comfortable and the additional TWO support chest and waist straps really take the brunt of pain off of you. That alone is worth the price of this bag.3. This bag can be small or huge. That was the main reason I picked this bag. You can stuff it under a seat IF, NOT IF, it's not stuffed to the guild. No one would think it was anything other than a normal backpack. If you want to use it as a personal item, just don't stuff it. That said, when you're ready or you can stuff it for a carry on item (not a personal), this thing can REALLY fill out. It's more than an overnight pack. You can get days worth of stuff in there. I got to 20kg and it still had room and space.4. It's really logical for being on the go in the city. Don't get me wrong, it could do great for a hiking pack as well, but this is the city persons hiking bag all the way. Little pockets, water bottles on the side, jack/front pouch for whatever. It just works and it feels like an accessory to yourself.Hands down, best backpack I've every owned.

Although this Backpack is not cheap, it is of great quality, and I trust all of my devices inside of it. The one thing I am not a huge fan of is that the laptop compartment will open all the way flat, as this is a commuter bag, this is expected, just not my cup of tea as I use it as a school bag for college. The laptop compartment is fairly sizable, It fit my 2013 15" MacBook with a little bit extra room. The laptop compartment being elevated from the bottom of the bag is helpful to not sustain any damages from setting the bag on the ground.As far as storage goes this bag can hold quite a bit of stuff. I carry around 2 3-subject notebooks and a single subject notebook as well as a small tool pouch with 2 screwdrivers and a bit pack in the middle compartment.In the 2nd smallest compartment I have my pen case, pencil pouch, and calculator, as well as cables and a power bank in the small zip up compartment inside of there.In the very small zippered pouch on the outside I keep my external SSD, cables for that, and a couple snacks (protein/granola bars).The water bottle holders on the side are fairly sizable, they aren't quite big enough to fit my 42oz Cirkul water bottle, but they are pretty close. The elastic part is also fairly tall on those compartments, but there is also plastic buckles that hold things in there really well ( I could even fit a small umbrella in there).Overall this backpack is made of really nice materials, and seems like it would stand up to time pretty well. (Plus even if it doesn't, Osprey has a good warranty)

This is my 3 month review. I love this pack. I’m an ER specialist and go between 14 ERs and 11 freestanding treatment centers in Florida, educating nurses and keeping our ERs up to speed. Lots of travel involved where I’m throwing my pack across to the passenger seat in my car daily, multiple times. This pack easily holds an electronic bag with cables, chargers etc, computer, 2 phones, wallet, keys, water bottles, jacket, leather folder, pens, glasses, snacks and other personal items. I have no complaints, material has zero wear, zippers holding strong and it’s comfortable to wear and looks professional. The multiple pockets/pouches allow for me to separate items for use. I abuse this bag daily and it stands up to this abuse. Highly recommend.

The size is good for minimal trips. It’s lightweight and padded, the style is unique and cool and it’s easy to get on and off. It’s been great for commuting to school and back when I have classes that don’t require me to lug around large textbooks. It’s quite simplistic and perfect for my needs!

This nicely combines a real backpack with commuter features (laptop sleeve & organization). It's suitable for commuting, travel, or hikes. The laptop sleeve easily fits my 17" laptop but I had to deduct one star because the sleeve provides absolutely no padding or protection along the sides; just elastic material. I am using a slim laptop case because I can't risk damaging my high-end laptop. I might actually cut out the stock laptop sleeve to remove some bulk.
