10 Best Travel Backpacks for Women With Laptop Compartments in 2026

Customer Review: “I was looking for a backpack that wouldn’t break the bank, but would still be of decent quality and have lots of organization and good padding, especially on the straps and the back. Now to be honest I know the saying you get what you pay for. To a point that can be true because I purchased two backpacks that cost around 25.00 for one and the other was thirty give or take. They were both horrible. One of them ripped inside on the seam the first week and the other was too flimsy and felt cheap. Now getting to the point…I read the other reviews about this backpack and honestly was surprised that most of them for the price point were good. So I bought one in black, the smaller one that is 25 liters. It is of very good quality and the padding is very good! The straps are wide and comfortable and the back padding is distributed very well. There are many pockets with well thought out organization. I pack the bag very full mainly using it for work. Surprisingly when it is fully packed it feels light on my back. I would definitely recommend this bag to everyone that is not a label whore!”

Customer Review: “Amazing backpack, since I’m always on the move, I bring various things with the backpack. It is able to fit my 16-inch laptop, while also being able to fit a PS5 as well. There is a back pocket near the bottom, hidden yet easily accessible for keys and other necessities. As well as a pocket inside one of the main ones that has a zipper, where you can stash your wallet and other important items. It is very comfortable, even with all my items in it, and it won’t hang low, so it won’t cause any pain. The weight is perfect for a travel backpack, as I was able to walk around various places in the Philippines in it. I recommend this backpack for people who care about a sleek look, but also being able to carry many things inside it.”

Customer Review: “I’ve had this backpack for a couple years now and I could not be happier with it. I’ve had lots of comments on how cute it is and several other women have asked me where I got it. I’ve pointed them all right to this exact backpack. The size is perfect to qualify for your personal item when flying or traveling by train. I’m able to put a small to medium-sized Michael Kors purse in the bottom and then a folded hoodie on top of that in the main compartment. The front pockets hold my sunglasses, snacks and a few other items. In the side pockets I can put a bottle of water and wand and the other one is great for my hand sanitizer. It holds quite a bit and I feel like my laptop is very secure with the padding around it. The zippers have held up well. The straps are comfortable and adjustable. The fabric wipes clean. If anything gets on it. It’s very stylish too and looks more expensive than it is.”

Customer Review: “This laptop backpack is larger that I was expecting. My picture is showing it next to my sewing bag that has my full sized sewing machine inside of it.The quality is fine. You can tell it’s not a luxury bag, but the metrical seems sturdy and the functional pieces like zippers and clips work well. There are three zipper pouches on at the front of the bag of varying sizes and one small one at the back. There is a mesh cup holder on one side of the bag and a padded handle on the other so that you can carry the bag horizontally. There are two compartments, a large one and then one for your laptop. The large compartment is large enough to be an overnight bag (or a Weekender if you pack smart). You can unzip this part all the way so that you can open it up like a suitcase (see photo). There were also three small travel bags inside of this compartment. The inside of the larger compartment has two zip pouches, one that is plastic and one that is mesh. On the opposite side of the zipper pouches is and elastic strap and clip to hold your items in place. There is a USB cord inside and the portable charger on the outside of the bag. The laptop compartment has multiple slip pockets and a padded computer pocket. The backpack straps and top handle are padded. It’s not heavy, but of course the final weight depends what you add to it.I originally gave this 4 stars because I felt like the fabric could be a nicer quality, but it’s fitting for the price point. I’ve also changed my review to five stars because of the sheer functionality of the bag. I thought I was just buying a laptop backpack for work travel, but this is straight up a piece of compact luggage that happens to function as laptop bag. This would also be a great bag if you travel with kids. You can store their electronics, recharge them 🙄, and also pack a lot of activities or snacks. Overall, it’s a great travel bag and worth the price.”

Customer Review: “PERFECT bag for commuting to work — fits my 16 inch MacBook and everything else I need for the day. I love the wide opening at the top and all the different compartments to keep things organized. The water bottle holders on the outside stretch to fit a variety of container sizes. There are quality zippers at all the openings and the backpack straps are comfortable.”

Customer Review: “Really good quality material. Has several pockets -good storage capacity. Looks nice. I like that it has the technology plug so that you could have a laptop in the bag and charge your phone with it. I use this in place of the teacher bag. Carried my laptop, along with a lot of other materials or papers. It holds a good amount of weight. I also liked that it was a perfect travel size on an airplane to be able to carry on and put under the seat in front of me. The red wine color was very pretty. Great purchase.”

Customer Review: “This backpack was the perfect size for travel, I packed my laptop, headphones and other items. Fit perfectly under the airplane seat and still had room for more. Great quality for an amazing price. Well worth it and I love the design and option to loop the bag on your carryon handle while walking through the airport. Very convenient style, versatile and looks very stylish. Highly recommended for your next trip!”

Customer Review: “Excellent backpack, is my 2nd one of the brand. The first one was the black one, I only bought a new one, because I change my laptop to a 17.3 inches one and the previous backpack was too small for it. This one, like the previous is sturdy, compact, but can carry a lot, has compartiments for everything, so you can still be organized and had a ton of things. I use it for traveling from city to city to work. The color is perfect for everyday and traveling, caramel/light brown is very forgiving with normal dirt. I love the security pocket on the side, is a nice update on older version that have the the back and is a little more uncomfortable to reach when you’re carry the bag.”

Customer Review: “Very stylish and versatile bag. My laptop fits comfortably in the large padded pocket. There is plenty of room for other items like books, pens and wallets. The outside pockets are great as well.”

Customer Review: “I absolutely love this bag — the size, the storage, and the look are all perfect. Everything has its place, so nothing gets lost at the bottom like in other bags. It makes staying organized so easy.I love it so much I have it in two different colors for two separate jobs. Stylish, functional, and holds everything I need. Highly recommend!”

Customer Review: “This bag is the bag I’ve been searching for. I needed a functional bag, even that meant spending a couple hundred dollars just to get one that worked for me. Luckily I didn’t have to, as I much prefer to have a bag that doesn’t break the bank; yet is a well-made and stylish backpack (aka: extra spacious purse). I love that it has so much room in it yet from the outside it looks smaller than most backpacks. And it’s pretty. I love that it stands up on its own, I don’t have to worry about setting it down and then whoops… another spill in my bag or things falling out.It’s spacious spacious spacious; when I opened it I can actually see what’s in it, things don’t get lost in the great abyss of my every day purses. The main feature that I bought it for was the water bottles holders, it has two on the outside and one on the inside, although I must say if you have two on the outside the one on the inside is a little tight so I usually carry one on the outside one on the inside. I’m pretty sure this is the first bag/backpack that I’ve ever owned that I have carried my coffee in in which I did not spell it… Or at least not yet and I am fairly confident I can keep that up.”

Customer Review: “Very stylish bag and get compliments on it daily. Love the space inside and all the pickets are very nice. I love the way it opens up allowing for more space for my things. Material is soft and not too stiff, the zippers are plastic with metal travelers. The size is nice and seems to be pretty durable as well.”

Customer Review: “This is the perfect travel backpack!!! There’s plenty of pockets and space for everything you need on hand, and still small enough to take as a carry on! I was able to stuff it until it was full, and the zippers NEVER once looked like they were gonna break. The waterproof compartment really came in handy, so that’s a bonus! The shoe compartment is also very spacious. I didn’t use the charging port since I don’t have a power bank anyway, but I’m sure it’d be useful!The only thing I’d change about it is the side pocket, as it was too small to fit my water bottle. Luckily, I was able to hook it to the side clips anyway, so no big deal!For the price, I was NOT expecting to receive something this high quality. If you’re thinking about getting this bag, I cannot recommend it enough!”

Customer Review: “THIS BAG DOES EVERYTHING! FITS UNDER PLANE SEATS and HOLDS A TON! I relied on previous positive reviews before purchasing this backpack, and waited until I just finished my own 2-week international travel to write this review. There are compartments everywhere, including one at the low back that perfectly securely and safely fits your passports and travel docs, one underneath for shoes or wet items, 3 large sections [with smaller additional storage compartments inside] that I used for laptops/iPads, large makeup bags, and a change of clothes, plus a small outside zippered compartment for those small items you want to reach quickly [ie: hand sanitizer medicine, etc]. The straps are comfortable and I walked through numerous airports, hotels, train stations, and more without any pressure on my shoulders or back.”

Customer Review: “I absolutely love this brand and own several of their bags – backpacks, tote bags, laptop bags, and even a hobo purse. They consistently offer incredible value for the quality. Honestly, most of the time their products look just as good (if not better) than some designer bags, while being sturdier and holding up longer. I’ve had one of my backpacks from them for YEARS, and it’s still going strong.This 16 inch Nude Backpack is no exception. The color is spot on and looks exactly as pictured. It’s neutral, stylish, and works for everyday use or travel. I love all the pockets, they make organization so easy. There’s a place for everything, which is a must for me.The luggage strap is a huge bonus since I travel fairly often. Being able to slide it over my suitcase handle makes airport trips so much easier. I’m also really happy they’ve updated the cup holders with the elastic clasps that secure handled cups. That’s one feature I always wished my older backpack had. It’s such a smart improvement.”

Customer Review: “I have ordered 2 other/different LOVEVOOK backpacks recently, prior to this one. All 3 of them are absolute winners. The folks at LOVEVOOK know backpacks and know what people need, pockets and spaces to conveniently store stuff. This smaller 15.6 inch backpack with 6 compartments and 16 pockets is well thought out, while avoiding being cumbersome or bulky. Fits both in the overhead bin and under the seat in front of you. The stitching is spot on and the zippers always glide effortlessly. There’s a convenient strap across the back to slide down onto your luggage handle. It also has a rather large cup holder on the side, with the listing boasting that it holds up to 40oz cups, securely. LOVELOOK thinks of everything from pen holders to slots for 2 phones, a laptop section with strap to secure and even a tablet pocket. I especially appreciate the 3 easy access zippered sections on the front side. Don’t miss the somewhat hidden zipper on the back side. Great smaller sized backpack, but available in several other sizes to suit everyone’s needs. Don’t skip over the LOVELOOK name just because it’s not a well-known pricier backpack maker, these are fantastic backpacks for a fraction of the cost.”

Customer Review: “I absolutely love this bag! I purchased it so I could get rid of all backpacks and duffels that I don’t use. It’s about the size of a standard suitcase and you can fit quite a bit in it. There are also packing cubes which helped me organize everything really well. It’s super sturdy and the zippers can hold their own. The bag has side buckles for additional security and tightness, which is also nice. There’s a pocket for my phone, laptop, and anything else I need, so it’s definitely going to be a go-to. Mine doesn’t have the charging port, which I’m perfectly okay with. Definitely worth the price.”

Customer Review: “Love the color. I’ve received many compliments on the bag. I love that it fits under the seat on the plane. I’m able to pack a lot in this bag. There are many different compartments which keeps things organized. It’s a good quality and very durable. Easy to travel with it in my back.”

Customer Review: “I just took it on its maiden voyage, and so far I absolutely love it! I searched far and wide for a backpack with several interior zipping pockets and this fits the bill. So far I would say it’s:Well madeGood metal zippersThoughtful designedSeemingly sturdy materialsHas useful and convenient featuresA funny thing – material is designed to be water resistant both inside and out. Consequently, the exterior is a slick material. On my flight I stored it under the seat in front of me. When we took off the pack slid out from under the seat to my feet. LOL – I wasn’t expecting that, and it cracked me up! A minor repositioning insured it stayed under the seat.My caveat for this review is that I’ve only traveled with it once. I don’t know how true these statements will be in the long run, but I hope they ring true. I have scoured Amazon for the features I wanted in a pack, basic conveniences like a charging port, zippered interior pockets, anti-theft pocket, water resistant material, roomy interior, external easy access pockets, hanging loop and padded straps. It hit all marks.! Bonus is the availability of multiple color combinations so it’s easily recognizable. The only “wish” it didn’t fulfill is an exterior sunglasses hook.I recommend the pack to anyone looking for these attributes in an attractive package!!”

Customer Review: “Absolutely love this bag! It is super spacious with tons of little compartments for everything! It safely holds my Mac book and my iPad in the back and even has a strap to keep them from moving. It’s so cute on the outside and is perfect for traveling to and from work each day!”
