If you’re so used to bringing your laptop everywhere that you practically experience phantom computer syndrome when it’s not near you, you’re not alone. For many of us who have to bring those pricey electronics with us from place to place on a daily or weekly basis, that can often mean shoving them in whatever bag we have handy, whether it’s a travel bag where it rattles around against keys, shoes, and the odd makeup case straggler or a grocery store tote that’s definitely got a loose blueberry at the bottom. And that, my friends, is why you need a good laptop bag.
Gone are the days of boxy, oversized laptop bags that scream, “I’m carrying thousands of dollars’ worth of electronics in here!” In their place are stylish backpacks and streamlined totes that offer space for everything from that essential piece of technology to your gym sneakers to the dry shampoo and makeup products you use on a daily basis. Read on for our picks for the best laptop bags on the market, with an option to fit practically any computer size, aesthetic, and budget, and all designed with thoughtful features that will make transporting that technology less of a schlep.
