A 15.6-inch laptop backpack may seem easy to choose at first glance. However, models can vary considerably in fit, compartment layout, fastening and protection against rain. A bag may look spacious in product photos, but prove awkward in practice if the laptop sleeve is too tight or the main compartment lacks structure.
For students, school pupils, professionals and travellers, three pitfalls are particularly important:
The 15.6-inch designation refers to the screen diagonal, not the overall dimensions of your laptop. Measure your laptop’s width, depth and thickness, including any protective sleeve.
A suitable laptop compartment should:
Do you carry a tablet, books or a lunchbox alongside your laptop? Look for a spacious laptop backpack with a separate main compartment. A business backpack with only a slim laptop compartment is often less practical for everyday use.
Pay attention to the difference between:
Many models only mention “water repellent” or “water resistant” in the product name. This does not guarantee that the contents will stay dry during a prolonged downpour. Also check the zips, seams and bottom of the bag. A water-repellent laptop backpack is suitable for everyday commuting in light rain, but a rain cover can provide additional protection.
A commuting backpack is often worn for several hours at a time. Look for adjustable shoulder straps, a padded back panel and a handle that feels comfortable in your hand. A broad, sturdy base also helps prevent the bag from constantly tipping over.
The following compartments are useful for everyday use:
A rolltop laptop backpack generally offers flexibility in height. A flip-top model may provide quicker access. For short business trips, an expandable laptop backpack can be useful because you can adjust the capacity to suit the amount of clothing or documents you are carrying.

No. The screen size does not tell you everything about the external dimensions. Measure your laptop and compare its dimensions with those of the laptop compartment. Also allow for a separate sleeve or protective case.
Its lifespan depends on the material, zips, seams, load and frequency of use. Do not overfill the bag, avoid forcing zips open under tension and follow the care instructions. Water-repellent fabric may become less effective through wear or frequent washing. Consider using a rain cover during prolonged rain.
It can be, but pay attention to the capacity and carrying method. A trolley strap is practical for train journeys. For flights, check the dimensions and any hand-luggage rules set by the airline. A travel laptop backpack with an expandable main compartment is useful when you want to carry clothing or documents alongside your laptop. For everyday cycling or walking, a stable fit, padded shoulder straps and a secure fastening are more important than having a large number of compartments.
