Great Case for Casual or Business Traveler September 25, 2005 85 out of 86 found this review helpful
When I was shopping for a notebook case that was not too bulky for everyday use. I only needed to bring my notebook and power cord, and an occasional file or two.
This Samsonite L35 laptop carrying case is exactly what I need for both everyday and travel use. I have it for each of my laptops. Not only does it carry all the necessary notebook requirements (power cable, ethernet cable, files, etc.), but everything else such as my wallet, phone, and sometimes a slim external hard drive.
The added padding protected my laptop from its demise after a few accidental mishaps. Thanks, Samsonite!!!
For my personal laptop, I have a Sony VAIO with a 13.3" screen, and it carries all of the necessities, which include a wireless optical mouse.
For my work laptop, I have an HP (Mobile Centrino) with a 15" screen, and it fits it perfectly! I carry more things, which include a wireless optic mouse, a wireless USB network adapter (to supplement/increase the gain of the internal wireless card on my notebook), and a CD wallet case. The other great thing about this case is the "flap" that can fit onto my carry-on luggage pull handle. If one didn't know what this was for, it can be easily mistaken for an external compartment with a "design flaw" of having the bottom of the pocket open. I am a professor at a medical university, and I travel at least once a month to give lectures in Universities and Scientific Conferences, so this is a definitely a big design advantage for travelers.
Conclusion: It is small enough to be conveniently used for everything I need it for, yet big enough to carry everything that I need.
Because the Samsonite L35 is doing its job as a notebook carrying case, I gave it 5 stars. I use the L35 when I just need to carry the notebook and the power cord. I also have the Samsonite XT530, which can hold more things, such as files and cables and peripherals portable drives. The XT530 is what I use when I need to bring more stuff.
Nice Case For The Essentials February 25, 2005 9 out of 9 found this review helpful
Update 7/2006: within a few months the handle rivet gave out. Given the low price I didn't even bother trying to get it repaired. This is a fatal flaw and if I could remove stars I would give it a zero.
------------- The case is well-built and seems rugged. It is all nylon, good-looking and devoid of any leather accents. The shoulder strap is padded and has webbing on one side for slip-resistance; the zippers and handle have a comfortable rubberized feel though I think the handle could be a little stiffer. All the metal parts have a nice satin finish.
My 15" screened HP ze4900 series laptop fits perfectly into the padded pocket in the main compartment. This pocket doesn't allow you to open the laptop while it is inside the case and can impede removal of the computer when the bag is partially unzipped (slightly inconvenient at an airport security station or while on a plane) but it does offer good protection. There is a velcro strap to secure the computer inside the pocket but it is too short to be useful and the case is snug enough that I don't use it at all.
There are two additional pockets in the main compartment for accessories and a larger pocket for files. Filling the accessory pockets with a mouse and charger does create some bulging but I feel this is acceptable when compared to the Kensington case which has a bigger footprint and was too big for this computer. The file pocket can only handle a half-inch worth of papers with the computer and accessories loaded.
The front pocket has space for a PDA or cell phone, pens and business cards, maybe a pair of sunglasses and travel documents.
With regard to the rear pocket, it is really not a pocket but a sleeve that allows the case to be slipped over a rolling suitcase handle. I didn't think much of it until I used it and now I think it is the best feature of this case -- wonderful for travel, looks slick, and is quite secure. And if you are using a black Samsonite suitcase so much the better for overall appearance. This sleeve also has a zippered compartment but I haven't used it because it is small and its contents are subject to bending if you are using the sleeve with a suitcase.
Overall a good case if you like compact size, simplicity, and style over tremendous capacity.

i have a 15.1 in laptop from dell. this fits it perfectly and snugly around it. its also easy to pull out. the pockets fit my needs perfectly. nothing comes close as far as the price goes.
Compact and surprisingly versatile November 8, 2005 9 out of 10 found this review helpful
Bought this for a dell laptop. The side pocket is surprisingly roomy.. The back opening is WONDERFUL for attaching to your wheeled luggage and overall access to pockets and documents is great. Very well built and sturdy, excellent padding to keep my computer safe.
Classy, durable and price-friendly laptop case September 2, 2005 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
Before buying the Samsonite case I shopped at every store and on every website possible. I am very pleased with my purchase and my new 15" Mac Laptop fits perfectly inside. It's a classy, professional looking case. Some users complain about it not having enough compartments to hold things, but I find it just perfect to suit my needs. You can't put something as thick as a binder inside, but it has the compacity and pockets to hold at least 3, 1 subject notebooks, floppy disks and CD's, power chords and the like. It also has pockets to hold cell phones and Ipods. The strap is comfortable and is held on by metal clips that should not break. There is also a handle if you would rather carry it that way. I love this case! Don't be afraid to buy one for your expensive technology investment too.
