Perfect, small carrying bag, with plenty of pocket

Verified Purchase:Yes
After purchasing my Surface Pro 3, I looked at the bag I was using for it. A big, targus 17" laptop bag. Which works great as it holds both my 17" laptop and my surface pro, plus any/all accessories I need. But I don't always need 'all' that, and wanted something small and easy to carry to complement my surface pro which is also small and easy to carry.
There are hundreds of 12-13" bags available. But all of which normally have just a little sleeve for the laptop/tablet, and maybe best case cinereo a second small pocket for an accessories.
Found this one at best buy. Not only does it have a large main compartment which will hold my surface pro and my MacBook pro retina 13, as well as room for a book or folders as well. But theres another pocket with slots for pens, and two pouches which hold my WD passport and my batterypack/wireless sd card/HHD reader. There are also two smaller zipper 'pouches' on the very front, which one slightly larger than the other, holds the power supply for either wall adapter (surface pro or MacBook), and the other pocket yet smaller, fits my Bluetooth mouse as well. By the front handle there is also a type of secret zippered compartment which goes pretty deep and holds my USB thumb drives, wallet. The front two zippered pockets could hold a wall adapter a piece, and then this secret zipper could also hold my Bluetooth mouse for long weekends when I know ill need them. On the back that would be brushing up against you is another Velcro pocket, which is most suitable for a folder, notepad, or papers.
The handles themselves are comfortable, and well constructed. And then theres a strap to go around your shoulders, which can also be removed easily if needed.
Overall, this was the bag of my dreams. Holds everything I would ever need short of my 17" laptop. Its small, compact, and a great companion. My wife calls it my 'purse' that I carry with me everywhere.
Only negative is the price. At $79.99 normal price, its not cheap. But if you look at similar 15/17 inch backpacks, you can easily spend over $100 and sometimes closer to $200.
I got it on sale the week after I saw it, for $59.99. And have had no regrets since. Other than the surface pro itself, this is probably my most life impacting important buy of this year for me. Which says a lot if you know me.
