> 3 dayI acquired this tomtoc Premium sleeve for use with my 2017 12 MacBook and my preferred working accessories, currently consisting of the OEM 30w power brick, a Magic Mouse 2, EarPods, a 3rd-party USB-C hub w/Ethernet, and a small variety of USB cables. It replaced the tomtoc basic sleeve ( https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B01HCF0VRC/ ) that I had bought earlier and returned a couple of days after receipt. It needs to be mentioned that the tomtoc basic sleeve that I returned is well-constructed and a great value. Its protective-but-slim-profile would be ideal for a student to slip into a non-laptop-specific book-bag, sandwiched between their load of binders and textbooks. In this use-case, accessories would reside elsewhere in the book-bag. But Im not a student, and havent carried a book-bag in decades. What *I* actually do is to pack my laptop and its accessories into one container/bag/sleeve to place into a carry-on personal-item-bag. Or place into a large road-trip duffel. Or just hand-carry into work/cafe/somewhere. In short, in the absence of an over-bag equipped with a padded, specific provision for a laptop (for which I would then opt for a stylish, minimalist leather sleeve)... I would prefer my accessories to be contained with the laptop in a single unit. This tomtoc Premium sleeve fulfills the role. The primary difference between the tomtoc basic sleeve and the Premium sleeve is the construction of its accessory pocket. The one on the basic sleeve is simply another piece of fabric over the face of the sleeve. Flat item(s) that are hard to damage (eg. a paper notepad) will do well in it. However, items with more depth than that (eg. the OEM power brick) will tent the pocket and press into the side of the laptop through the padding. At the same time, the outside face of the accessory pocket is unpadded, providing little protection to the accessories within. OTOH, the Premium sleeve is constructed with a more fully-furnished accessory pocket. Its built with more vertical space to better accommodate non-flat accessories, is segregated into a few stretch and zippered compartments, and padded... not as much as the main laptop pocket, but padded nevertheless. The tomtoc basic sleeve is truly that: a sleeve for just the laptop. The tomtoc Premium sleeve is more of full-featured system carrier. As said before, the tomtoc basic sleeve is a terrific value for the money. Aside from the more-intricate construction, the tomtoc Premium sleeve tries to justify its price with better materials (Cordura). That said, it does not quite approach the value of the basic sleeve at twice the price. But thats okay... its still very affordable, esp. relative to the equipment its containing/protecting. Nitpick: the only colorway available for the 2017 12 Macbook is Sage Green. This is actually gray with a tinge of green, with pastel turquoise accents. This is honestly an odd color choice. If you were to produce only one colorway for a product, black is always the best choice for not clashing with anything else the consumer wishes to use the product with.

> 3 dayThis is a good laptop bag. It fits my 16” MacBook with an incase shell. The pocket for your charger and other items is also a good size for your mouse, external drive etc. I would definitely recommend this bag. The interior is solid and gives the computer a good amount of protection.

> 3 dayThis surprisingly fits a lot! I love everything about this case. I can fit my Dell XPS, iPad and writing utensils and other small accessories in this quite well. I wish it had an additional handle on the side to carry briefcase style but otherwise its perfect. The quality is exceptional. Ive had mine for three years now and it has not fallen apart at all. There are just a few pen marks on it just from being jostled around in my backpack but they are easy to clean. Highly recommend!

> 3 dayI bought this bag for my MBP 2021 16, and my MBP just fits in, the corner protection is good. I can also put a 12.9 iPad Pro with Magic Keyboard and Apple Pencil in the front bag.

> 3 dayNice and compact. anything that can make toting around my laptop easier is a good thing. This bag is light and compact, not a ton of structure but it protects my laptop. Seems well made, fabrics feel nice and durable and well put together. I am happy with my purchase and if I lost it I would probably buy this again.

> 3 day... got it right! I like this laptop case very much! This is the first case in which my HP Spectre X360 16 fit perfectly. However, the 16 Spectre has weight to it, and the handles on the tomtoc are a bit too fragile and short for the length of the case. The shoulder strap is sturdy though. I would like tomtoc to consider making the handle as sturdy as the shoulder strap. I will keep the tomtoc case. As of this review, I dont see any other product that is better than this one to carry my 16 Spectre HP. meanjean 04.14.23

> 3 dayI was looking for a well-padded case that would have enough room for my work laptop, charger, mouse, and cell phone. The price of this case was a little more than I had hoped to spend (and my job didn’t cover it... smh thanks job lol), but the quality is worth it. It’s very well made with lots of padding, so I know my devices will be safe. This also had the extra storage space I needed. It’s an easy grab and go to put this in whatever purse or messenger bag I’m using for the day.

> 3 dayGreat little case for MacBook Pro 13”. I didn’t want the computer loose in my daughter’s backpack and this case is perfect since it is vertical because she can slide the computer in and out without taking the case out. It is a little more snug with the protective shell on the computer but still fits nicely. So she can zip it shut and not worry about dust and possible misc crud getting into the computer. The handle on it is super sturdy so when she doesn’t take the case out it feels very sturdy and she dropped it on a tile floor with no damage at all to the computer. It is an expensive computer maybe for a teenager but she is on it constantly for school and is a very serious student. There is enough stress with so much homework we didn’t want any technology stress on top of it. Gear like this helps her keep the investment safe.
