Best Laptop Backpacks for Remote Workers

Worker working with a Kensington Laptop Backpack

Since 2005, working from home and remote locations has grown 159%. If you are part of the increasing number of remote workers, you need portable solutions to safely transport your office equipment when you are on the move. In this case, you know that a standard briefcase will not make the cut to comfortably carry your work items. In fact, most standard briefcases aren't even adequate. What you need is a laptop backpack. 

Laptop backpacks are designed specifically as a place to store those essential items and transport them to wherever you need them to be on a workday, home or office or anywhere between. Security features are essential. Extra compartments are a must. 

What else do you think your perfect bag should feature? Here are some tips for finding the best laptop backpack for today's remote and hybrid workers.

Tips for Getting the Best Laptop Backpack for You

Do you remember picking out a backpack for the first day of school? You probably prioritized how it looked and not how practical it was.

In college, you learned function mattered more than fashion. You probably bought the cheapest bag you could find to fit all your books and your laptop (if you were lucky).

Today, as a business professional, you know it's worth the investment in a laptop backpack that is stylish, comfortable, and secure.

Every backpack has a set of prerequisites that determine whether it is a good bag or one that will go unused, tucked away in the bottom of your closet. Backpacks must:

  • Protect all your devices
  • Keep contents secure
  • Fit comfortably
  • Carry everything you need (conveniently)
  • Keep you organized
  • Be easy to carry
  • Balance weight
  • Be stylish

Other essential elements to consider include quality, the number of compartments inside, internal space, overall size and durability. Make sure your laptop bag comes with a warranty. Even the highest quality bag could have flaws. 

To get the right laptop backpack, you'll need to know exactly what to look for in a laptop bag to meet your precise needs. What size laptop will you be carrying? Do you also need space for portable monitors? A wireless keyboard or mouse? 

Or perhaps you carry more paperwork than electronics. Whatever your requirements, look for a bag that prioritizes all your work essentials.

Top 3 Backpacks for Laptops

Globally, employees on business trips account for 75% of travelers. Laptop backpacks are compact but hold a surprising amount of tech gear, office supplies, and file folders (crammed with paper). 

Over half (66%) of employees work remotely at least part-time. If you are one of these remote workers, you want a laptop bag that will keep you organized while also keeping everything conveniently within reach.

Whichever category you fall into, Kensington has a long line of laptop bags, backpacks, and cases that are perfect for anyone working outside the office.
