Best Laptop Backpacks on Amazon UK (2026)
A genuinely good laptop backpack earns its keep daily — proper padding, sensible pockets and a shape that survives a packed commute matter more than looks alone. This post contains affiliate links. Here are four picks covering commuting, travel, business and budget needs.
The four picks
Matein Travel Backpack
The commuter favourite: a dedicated USB charging port, anti-theft back pocket and enough compartments to genuinely organise a full workday's kit. Consistently one of Amazon's best-reviewed bags in the category.
Typical price: £29.99
Osprey Daylite Backpack
The outdoor brand's daypack, built with proper hiking-grade materials and comfort even when packed heavy — a favourite for travel as much as commuting.
Typical price: £54.99
Kono Business Backpack
A smarter, more formal look than most laptop bags, with a padded 15.6-inch sleeve and enough structure to look right in a client meeting.
Typical price: £24.99
Targus Laptop Backpack
The reliable budget office pick, from a brand that's made laptop bags for decades — nothing flashy, just consistent protection and organisation at a fair price.
Typical price: £19.99
Which to buy
Daily commute with charging needs: Matein. Travel and outdoor use: Osprey Daylite. Client-facing office role: Kono. Tightest budget: Targus. All four fit most 15–15.6-inch laptops comfortably; measure yours first if it's a larger 17-inch model.
