  • Top-Tier Protection: Each backpack features advanced, rigorously tested protection systems. Our high-quality foam padding and patented technologies ensure your devices are secure. Many include advanced protection systems like our SafePort® Sling that suspends your laptop to prevent drop damage, or our DOME Protection that disperses impact shock.

  • Built to Last: We stand by our craftsmanship with a limited lifetime warranty on most of our laptop backpacks, ensuring durability for the long haul.

Laptop Backpacks FAQs

Which Laptop Backpack Is Best for Commuting To Work?

Thanks to the quality and durability of our backpacks, many are made to tackle the weekly workday commute. Some of our top picks for daily dashes include the Drifter collection, thanks to its rugged design. For lengthier commutes, the Voyager EXP Travel Backpack is a top pick for its expandable capacity, lockable zippers, premium SafePort Sling® protection, and more.

How Can I Carry My Laptop While Traveling?

To carry and keep your laptop safe while traveling, you’ll need a backpack with a dedicated, padded laptop compartment to protect your device from bumps and scratches. All Targus laptop bags are designed to deliver the ultimate in laptop protection – and many include our patented SafePort Sling® or DOME Protection®, all while maintaining a sleek, lightweight design that you can carry comfortably.

What is a TSA friendly laptop bag?

A TSA or checkpoint-friendly laptop backpack is perfect for easy travel and laptop protection on the go. Our Mobile Elite Checkpoint-Friendly backpack is an unbeatable option for travelers. It unzips flat so there's no need to remove your device at security, features easy-access compartments, and keeps your laptop protected — even if you’re jogging to your gate.

What Size Backpack Do I Need for My Laptop?

Choosing the right-sized backpack for your laptop is essential for both protection and comfort. To ensure the best fit, always check your laptop's exact screen size and dimensions, then compare them to the backpack's laptop compartment. A snug, well padded compartment prevents your device from shifting during travel, reducing the risk of damage while improving overall ergonomics.

Targus Laptop Backpacks are designed to accommodate a variety of laptop sizes, including:

  • 15-16" laptops
  • 17" laptops

Many Targus backpacks also include a built in tablet pocket, making it easy to carry multiple devices securely.
