Looking for Laptop bag feedback: Booq PowerSleeve L vs. Mamba L

Hi,

I have searched both this forum and Google but have been unable to find reviews on these items. From the images/description on the Booq website they both seem like great choices for the MacBook Prom 15.4" model. Does anyone here have firsthand experience with either of these items? I have a 15.4" MacBook Pro on order and I would like to have a bag in hand by the time it arrives.

Thanks,

Bruno

Hi Guys,

Thanks for taking the time to reply to my post. I'd really like to hear from people that have a 15.4" MacBook Pro and have either a Booq PowerSleeve L or a Booq Mamba L. Both of these seem to to be big sellers, so I know somebody here has to have one.

From the description on the site, both seem great, and I am looking for any info that will help in deciding which one I should get.

Well, I've got a PowerSleeve L and I absolutely love it. It's a perfect fit - nice and slim - but it can still fit the power brick my phone, my iPod, my LifeDrive (a brick-like PalmPilot), and a magazine or two without much fuss. The only real issue I can see with this bag is the fact that there's an inch of open space at the top of the bag where rain/snow can get in (though this hasn't been an issue in my experience - yet).

Overall, I highly recommend this bag - style, functionality, protection for a reasonable price. What's not to like?

Regards,
Adam

Well, I have the Power Sleeve for my 15" MBP, and I got it together with the Python backpack "system". I use the Power Sleeve for taking my MBP everywhere locally. I took it to the Apple Store once carrying the MBP, an external hard drive, and cables, and had no trouble fitting everything. I use it inside the Python, though, when I travel. That combination will hold everything and then some. I love them both.
