Bought this for an Alienware 17 R4 it >barely< fits. It's a tight fit but it does fit with a little finagling.

Very nice back pack. Zippers move perfectly and has many compartments.

This bag is awesome! The build quality is top-notch; everything feels very sturdy and comfortable. The main compartment is large enough to hold two 17" laptops with ease, and the zipper opens up so that everything is visible. The middle compartment is also large enough to fit a laptop, so it can easily be used for books or other items. The outer compartment has ample space for all your accessories, and has a convenient pouch for a phone and a slot to feed headphones out. There are also several smaller compartments for you to store smaller items.

Excellent. Will fit an M17 no problem. Good cushion. Opens easy for tsa. I’d buy again.

I've only spent two months since I bought the bag, but I've already run out of shoulder straps. I only put my laptop and battery in my bag. It's incredibly poor quality.

Not going to lie, the only reason I got the bag was I had store credit from my 17"R4 purchase and my old backpack was too small. That said, the laptop fits, but it's a little tight. I can put plenty of extras in there. Overall, not bad. Not sure I'd spend the money on it if it weren't for the credit.

Pro's Lots of pockets for your stuff Lots of room for files even when the PC is in the bag Con's TSA did not think the bag was checkpoint friendly. They thought it was too big to fit in the bins they use. the open bag is too big for the TSA bins.

The back pack is awesome in terms of space and design. The otherwise heavy laptop never feels heavy while in this bag. The only area which the bag could be improved is the bottle holder, which is not comfortable for taking out and putting in bottles is not so easy while wearing the bag.

Was worth the price. I use it for everything, including school and travel. The comfortable padding on the straps and back make it easy to carry the 10 pound labtop and everything I need. The thick pad and harder outside shell make for very good protection during transport.

Pros: Everything fits in this bag CONS: Stitching came off in 3 months of using this bag. Stitches came off around the shoulder strap. Around the first big zipper. The stitching is just horrible. This product is horrible. DO NOT BUY IT AT ALL.

Ordered this bag to fit my new m17x R4, the laptop itself is very heavy, over 4KG. Combined with the beast of the charger that comes with this laptop the bag is very heavy just with the laptop and charger. However, the bag is well made and shows no sign of wear after a weeks use. I would not want the messenger bag with all the weight on one shoulder. The bag is a little larger than expected but that's better than using a 14" screen. The bag has plenty of room, for the laptop, charger, mouse and various other things in the font pouch, this bag even has enough room for a cooling tray in the middle pocket or even another laptop (although i'm not sure how well it will hold up with 10KG+ weight inside it) I contacted customer support to enquire about what 'limited lifetime warranty' means, they said they would contact the manufacturer to find out but I never heard back) so not sure how long the warranty is for. Overall the laptop fits well, is well protected which is expected from a product designed specifically for the laptop. Assuming the lifetime warranty is actually lifetime then this is a great buy (there are other manufacturers offering definite lifetime warranty for a few extra pounds included in the price of the bag.)

As soon as I received my AW M17X R4 I wanted something that I could carry it in. I didnt look any further after finding this backpack in AW accessories. I called to place to my order versus ordering through Dell.com because I had a couple of questions. I.E.- How well would my AW fit? Sales rep was fantastic! The shipping was blazing fast. When I received it I looked at every inch its built very well. Everything right down to zippers are excellent. The amount space that this backpack has is mind blowing! It can fit my laptop with ease, my mouse, my charging brick, mousepad, Along with My phone, mp3 player. and still has plenty of room to pack at least three days of clothes. The carry handle is also convenient if your not wearing it on your back. Pros-EVERYTHING Cons-NONE

Loved the bag so far, have only used it a handful of times, but so far its great. It is just big enough to hold my M17x. Has many pockets and openings and even a hidden water bottle pouch.

I am a Gamer, Programmer, and I just happen to make leather Bags and Pouches as a hobby. I love this bag, it's well thought out all around. Pro's: = The TSA checkpoint friendliness is great = There is a hard shell on the front for style and protection = pockets just behind the shell are perfectly sized for batteries. = there are compartments for papers, SD cards, USB Sticks, USB Cables, and even a hidden drink pouch (a little odd Con's: = I would liked to have a cross strap on mine. My M17x-R4 is a little heavy and if I filled this bag AND had my laptop in it the weight would be significant. I wish it had a cross strap from the right shoulder strap to the left to help take some of the weight off my shoulders. In all if I were to get this bag from Targus or anther brand, though I love Targus's backpacks, it would cost more and probably would fit my laptop so perfectly. This Bag is a great buy and I don't regret it for a moment.

This bag is awesome. There are so many compartments for storing things. The padding makes carrying it very comfortable. I love this bag.

I love my laptop, and it fits great in this bag, but this bag does not fit me. It was clearly made for men with broad shoulders; the straps are so far apart that they barely rest on my shoulders at all. The result? The straps cut into my arms and make it hard to move and once the bag comes off: back and neck pain. However, if you're a dude, you'll be very happy with this bag. I've had a lot of my friends try it on and they say its very comfortable, and it's very well made and spacious. So, ladies, be careful before buying this bag. You might be better off with the over the shoulder bag (I have one too, it's a lot harder to move around with and feels a lot heavier but you won't be in as much pain when the bag comes off)

I received the bag in a very timely manner. This bag has some really cool pockets, even USB slots. It seems really good quality and I am looking forward to taking my first trip with it. Really nice bag!

This backpack has been great so far. I use it to transport my laptop, cooling pad, and charger to work every day of the work week. PROS: This bag is well made and easy to carry around. The straps are heavy duty yet comfortable. It has held together well so far under heavy use. CONS: I wish there was a way to adjust the area for the laptop since I carry my 14" in here. It moves around just a little so I added some extra foam padding in behind it to help stabilize it. Overall this has been a great bag so far and I would definitely recommend it.

I Love It-I Love It-I Love It!!!!!!! Have had this backpack for about a year now, and have used it a lot-airport security-libraries-business meetings etc. I bought it for my M15x, but it died-two of them lol, but the bag still rocks on, and Dell made it right by giving me an M17x R3, and it fit,s even better!!!!!!!! Pros-It works-it really doe's, and looks good doing it. Cons-Wish it had a clasp or clip to secure the front of straps while wearing it, but no biggie-hasn't slipped or fell off...... I am going to get the Messenger Bag also:)!!!!!!!!!!

Our son bought an alienware computer a few months ago and has been packing it around in the box it came in which is big, bulky and can't fit the accessories and his extra odds and ends. He's a writer, gamer amoung other things. We gave this packpack to him for xmas (HE LOVES IT). Pros: Awesome quality, Awesome protection, Plenty of room for his extra things and super comfortable for packing around. No cons in our opinion!!! Highly recommend!!!!

Have only been using the backpack for 3 months and the straps are coming apart. The right strap on the bottom has frayed so badly that within another month it will be completely detached from the body of the backpack. It took over 3 hours on the phone to get any information on getting it repaired. Good luck if you buy one.

Pros My Alienware M17X10 disappears into this backpack with plenty space to spare for accessories and books. Commuting by motorcycle the backpack is perfectly padded and sits comfortably without straining ones back. An absolute pleasure at airport security with the backpack unzipping more than sufficiently, this allows quick and easy access to remove and replace your laptop safely. Overall durable look and feel, highly recommended. Cons Early days as I have not yet experienced any of the cons mentioned in previous reviews.

It's a visually apealing bag. Spacious. After less than a month, the stitching began separating along the front top left hand corner, where the leather facing connects. After about 6 weeks, the stiching on the shoulder straps began separating. CSRs would not replace, even though issues were within 30 and 60 days. Having paid what I have between the laptop and all the accessories I bought, I have to say it left a foul taste in my mouth.
