I read a lot of reviews on this and other laptop cases before I made this purchase. A lot of reviews said that this case did not fit 15″ laptops, but it actually fits my 15.4″ Dell Inspiron 1525 (Width: 14.05″/35.7cm,
Height: 1.00″/2.5cm front, 1.48″/3.7cm back, Depth: 10.08″/25.6cm). It’s snug, but it’s not like I want my laptop rattling around in the case. There are two side-by-side front pockets that can fit the power cord as well as a small wireless mouse. There is a flap that covers both the laptop compartment and the two front pockets. It closes w/ an adjustable plastic click closure. Additionally, there’s a pocket w/ a velcro closure in the back of the bag for a few documents, maybe a 1-subject notebook. I don’t like carrying a lot with my laptop, and this is the perfect case for me. This is a minimalist case that doesn’t add much weight to the base weight of the computer, but holds everything that I need. There isn’t a ton of padding, so I wouldn’t recommend it for someone that travels with their computer a lot. However, as someone that brings her laptop between home and work, I think it’s enough to protect the computer, given that you don’t throw it around. The orange lining on the inside is a nice touch, and the adjustable cross-body strap is slim, but comfortable, and securely attaches to the body of the bag.
