Rated 5 out of 5 by from A good bag. Trim, well designed and economical. Purchased to carry T480 and M14. Plenty of compartments for accessories. Had to modify one pocket so as to accommodate the external DVD player.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Not bad. Soft, sorta thin to my liking. If you’re using it to travel in a car from place to place it’s not so bad. But real life commute from planes, trains, buses. Personally I feel it’s not strong enough. Has enough pockets to carry your personal load with your laptop.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from This is a pretty good case. This topload case is a bit bigger than I was expecting after I saw the size of the Yoga gen 5 laptop. Also, I’m not a fan of the laptop slot. Typically, I feel they are pretty fitted to hold the laptop in place. I’m not even sure which side I’m supposed to put the laptop in because it’s floppy both ways. Other than that, there’s a ton of pockets. I kept thinking there couldn’t be anymore and I would find another one. That is really nice. Overall, it does work well. It just wasn’t quite what I was expecting.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from A nice, But not great side pack. There isn't much to say about this. I bought it with the purchase of a laptop just to have a convenient way of transporting it around. I looks decently made, not super cheap, but certainly not more then the asking price. I've used it once or twice. It's made for purpose, and doesn't really go much beyond that.

I wanted something that could hold my new lenovo laptop and also hold some notebooks comfortably without having to cram them in. I'm a college student so this case has been just what I've needed to fit everything i need. I don't even have to carry a backpack, so that's definitely a plus.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Nice case I have used a Timbuk 2 Messenger case for the past 2 years. I was looking for something less bulky for my Carbon X1. This bag is light and small enough for plane travel. The only issue I have is that it has minimal padding. Nevertheless, it works well for me.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Great bag for a great price I was looking for a GOOD QUALITY laptop bag with a separated pocket to carry my laptop and charger around so it wouldn't scratch. I looked at other bags that seemed lesser quality - I didn't care about the brand name, and I had expected something name brand to be more expensive - I was wrong! This bag has been perfect for everything. I carry a notepad and some papers behind my laptop as well as the charger, wireless mouse, a couple of pens, etc and everything FITS and I have extra room. Plus the bag is very durable and padded.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Slim and Snug This is not a bag you purchase with the intent of putting many accompanying items along with your laptop. If you want something that is light and meant for a laptop and maybe a notebook and some pencils, this is the bag for you. If you need a text book bag too - go for a backpack or something with more space. The quality of this product is great and was just what I was looking for. It is a good strong material and it has a smooth interior that won’t scratch your laptop. I bought this for my Lenovo Yoga 730 and it fits snug especially when I use my Lenovo 15 sleeve with it for extra protection. Because this bag is narrow I highly recommend getting a thick sleeve for some cushion. I like it because it is light weight and I am a short person with a short spine and long legs - it’s hard finding a book bag my knees don’t come into contact with let alone a back back that doesn’t sit on my butt even at its tightest setting - and this product is adjustable to the point of a perfect length for my comfort.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Good build I bought my laptop a little over a month ago. I'm not super computer savvy, however I built it for speed and power. In that aspect I have not been let down, but after yesterday I was less into my build after being transferred over the phone several times to talk with someone about an issue. When I built my computer I added Microsoft 365 and Norton antivirus. While discovering all my computer had to offer I noticed the antivirus was not included. I saved a copy of my order for weeks while I waited for my computer to be shipped, and the day it arrived I erased it. When I finally got through to the right division ( my third call) I was provided with what they say was my original recipt via email and of course the antivirus wasn't on the detailed invoice and I KNOW I included it. Long story short... they didn't seem to care and after spending 1200$ on a laptop they want to deny me a 40$ program... thanks lenovo!

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Excellent Choice for High Performance Purchased the Lenovo IdeaPad with i7 processor, 12 GB memory, and 256 GB SSD running Windows 10 and Office365. The boot up speed performance is amazing (around 12 seconds) compared to previous laptop experience with traditional HDDs (over a minute). The IdeaPad with 15.6 inch matte display is brilliant, lightweight, easily portable, with excellent battery performance. My wife is the primary user and has been extremely happy with her Lenovo laptop.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Fair Price It's a pretty basic and effective bag. Plenty of pockets for the shoulder strap, power cord, etc. There's a slight lack of padding and structure but it by no means feels throwaway cheap. Looks decent enough and so far holds up well. I appreciate the handles come free of an annoying velcro loop. It fits my T480 fine with a little wiggle room but it's secure. Budget bag, I suppose, but decent.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Perfect for my T-480 An attractive well-made case with plenty of room for my laptop, the brick, and any other accessories I need while traveling. The main compartment has a separate padded space for the laptop and another for file folders or documents. The two additional zippered compartments are more than enough to hold my phone, pens, wallet, etc. The case is light weight but sturdy and comes with a shoulder strap that I will probably never use but is good to have.

The materials that the bag is made from don't feel premium, but at this price point I don't think that should've been expected. I like the bag overall and am happy with my purchase. It provides adequate protection/padding, so if i dropped it, I wouldn't automatically think my laptop was destroyed. I would purchase this laptop bag again.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Awesome computer case I received a new Lenova ThinkPad from my employer for work but no case to carry it. A coworker had the same computer with this Lenova case. I googled the case and found the exact same one for my computer on the Lenova site. I love this case. It is so lightweight and has the perfect amount of pockets for storage so you do not ‘over pack’ and make your bag a nuisance to carry. This is he issue I had with my last computer and bag. I would definitely recommend this case and the ThinkPad they are both awesome.

Rated 5 out of 5 by from Lenovo Bag is the only bag I use. The quality of this bag is great and I know it will withstand some heavy use. Ive used Lenovo bags for 10 years now and don't plan on going with anyone else. I use them for both Personal and my Business.
