15.6 inches is the most common laptop size, so it has the widest choice of bags. A backpack for a 15.6-inch laptop needs a padded compartment rated up to 15.6 or 16 inches, and a capacity that matches your day: from 10 liters in a compact bag like the Intima Pro, through 20 to 25 liters for a workday, up to 35 liters for travel, like the SmartPack DLX with its external USB port. Many models have a USB port, a hidden back pocket and water-repellent fabric.
15.6 or 16 inches: which compartment to choose
A 15.6-inch laptop fits a compartment rated up to 15.6 inches, and also one rated up to 16 inches. A 16-inch laptop needs a compartment of at least 16 inches. This page has both: the Optimus Pro, The Reel and Roxy are built for 15.6 inches, and the Blanco Pro, Hoot Pro 25L and ActiveMax 2.0 Edge for 16 inches. Choose a compartment close to your laptop's size so it doesn't shift inside.
Slim for every day or large for travel
For a day at work or school, 15 to 22 liters is enough, like the slim The Royal 15L or the 22-liter Roxy. For a trip with a laptop and clothes, the 30-liter Optimus Pro and the 35-liter SmartPack DLX and Canberra 35L fit the bill. The Urbanism Deluxe offers 36 to 57 liters with 4 separate compartments.
Extras worth checking
An external USB port, like on the Optimus Pro, The Xavier Pro and Ochocinco Pro 25L, connects to a power bank inside the bag (the power bank is not included). The Xavier Pro and The Coach Pro also come with a rain cover, and the Epic Deluxe Commute has a combination lock and a luggage strap. The Mulhens, in genuine leather, adds a Type-C charging port as well.
