ALPAKA Elements Tech Case Max X-Pac® VX21 - Keeps You Clutter-Free - Transforms into Sling Bag with Adjustable Strap, Weatherproof Fabric fits iPad Mini 6 and Foldable Headphones

I need to preface my review by saying I'm returning this product. It's extremely well-designed and it's going to carry all of the stuff you need to carry … if all of that stuff will tetris into the volume of a a small lunchbox. Years ago, I actually picked up such a lunchbox to carry essentials into a theme park so I didn't need to lug my backpack around all day long in the heat, and it worked shockingly well, actually, despite the lack of organization present.This … is like that, but better. My phone could go into this thing as well and be protected from other things banging around, for example. I don't have to open it carefully to avoid everything spilling out. And it's made of premium materials, too!I love that there's basically no wrong way to carry this pack. You can rearrange the strap to carry out however you like, and I understand that the stabilizer accessory is pretty nice as well, though I haven't got one of those here.I've got a few other Alpaka products now and I can say if this wears like those have, it's going to last for years, and I even like the colors. I got this in green, and it doesn't look too much like "olive drab" to identify you as "that guy", while being in the same vein if you happen to actually be "that guy". It's understated and urban-friendly while being fairly nondescript both in an urban setting and out in places where cellular isn't the most reliable way to communicate. At the same time, the blood orange interior is pretty high-vis.So, why am I not keeping it? I have medical needs I didn't when I carried that lunchbox. I'm an insulin-using diabetic, and that means in addition to a meter, strips, and lancets that'd totally fit into this bag along with the usual stuff someone like me might carry, I need insulin pens, a spare CGM, pen needles, etc. It's a lot more stuff. I basically need a bigger bag, and it's a little hard to judge the size of these things online.So if you don't need to carry all of that in addition to battery, earbuds, phone, wallet, keys, card readers, a multitool, wallet, and medications for the day (or whatever normal people carry), this bag is going to be a perfectly premium and comfortable carry option for you.If you have a need for a bigger bag, and you want the features of the average Alpaka bag, look at the Go Sling for an 11 tablet sort of version of this pouch, or if you need a bit bigger than that Alpaka's Bravo Max is your ticket. (The latter is out of stock at the time of writing, but there's a chance they'll upgrade the zippers on the next run since they seem to be moving to YKK zippers throughout otherwise. We'll see when they restock!)

Absolutely thrilled with the Alpaka Tech Case Max! This pouch is the epitome of versatility and spaciousness. It has multiple compartments that effortlessly accommodate my MacBook Air, charger, external HDD, and even snacks for those long travel days. The design is sleek and durable, making it perfect for both work and travel. Whether I'm heading to the office or embarking on an adventure, this tech case keeps all my essentials organized and easily accessible. It's truly a game-changer for anyone needing a reliable, stylish, and highly functional tech organizer. Highly recommended!

I love this tech case. It is the perfect size, awesome organization pockets, I feel my items are protected, great quality overall, well made zippers, you name it. I use it when I want to go to a Coffee Shop with my iPad Mini and my Sony WH-1000XM5 and still have room for a battery bank and a few other stuffs and it doesn't feels tight. You can also fit your Nintendo Switch with a Hori Nintendo Controller in a different setup.

It is so compact yet it still manages to hold so much. I am able to fit two handheld gaming devices in it which is insane. Quality is premium. The amount of compartments helps a lot with organization. Waterproof material and zippers makes me feel insured nothing will happen to my electronics if it gets wet for whatever reason. It has a good amount of padding and protection but it fits nicely in my bag so I know it’s secure. Will definitely be picking up another one and I suggest you do to!

Likes: as stated high quality materials, design, and build quality are all nice - albeit slightly premium/expensive price. Design- wise, I like the ability to attach (included) strap to use this as a sling bag; highly useful. The VX nylon makes this a very light bag to carry - easy on the shoulder (until you put lots of heavy stuff in it), also roomy compartments and features like magnetic pocket are useful. However, this is not too bigDislikes: a bit expensive. Practically the only problem I see is that the main zipper is a bit hard to close (easy to open) - (1) being water- tight zipper, but mostly due to (2) zipper tabs have locking loops (can be useful) but the pulling tabs are attached on the outer opening side. Not a serious problem, but will need some getting used to.

This case feels great to hold and use and is made of very high quality materials. One of the things I like best is that it has some extra height compared to many other tech cases. I'm able to fit all of my gear and nothing seems cramped. A big bonus is that it can also be used as a sling bag or waist pack with the included strap.

I love my new murse....uh i mean tech case. :)This fits my ipad mini 7 perfectly, even with the Zugu case. I travel quite a bit for work and I can store all of my cords, chargers, presentation gear, and wallet/passport without issue. I love that it came with a sling and has enough attachments to attach to my Wandrd PRVKE bag.
