I've destroyed my fair share of backpacks over the past couple of decades. I carry a lot of stuff when I leave the house — usually a laptop, the laptop's cord, a bunch of pencils and pens, earbuds, external storage drive, chalk, gum, stickers, and a giant sketchpad. When I go to a tech event (like CES or IFA ) for SlashGear, I exchange the art supplies for a giant DSLR camera and throw in a few more cords for good measure.
I want to be able to access any piece of gear I might need at any given time. I want to be able to walk through a city while it's raining and not worry about my electronics getting wet. I want comfort, but I also want to be able to stuff the bag under an airplane seat.
I need a very good laptop backpack. While I've tried many different kinds of backpacks, I've found that the "laptop backpack" or "gaming backpack" category of bag suits me best. I discovered this in 2015 when I started using a Razer Tactical Bag .
I had a Razer Tactical Bag on my back for nearly a decade before it started to show any significant signs of wear. After testing a variety of bags over the past few months, I landed on a solid replacement from the same brand — Razer. The bag is called the Razer Rogue 16 Backpack V3 — Chromatic.
The Razer Rogue 16 Backpack V3 was sent by Razer for testing, and while it'll still be a while before I've put this bag through all the long-term tests I like to inflict upon it, I believe I've finally found a suitable replacement for my previous favori.
