I have one of these laptop backpacks. Actually the reviews here sound like we are talking about two different models that are very similar. Mine matches the pictures exactly, although it was purchased at a brick-and-mortar store.
This bag fits my 17" laptop easily. It is nice that it has a separate laptop section. The laptop goes in the back pocket, closest to your back. The next pocket is actually a huge storage compartment that will easily hold 2" binders. I can fit another laptop (15") and a small printer in this compartment. Of course, I don't usually carry around two laptops on my back, but when traveling by car I let this be my "computer suitcase".
The backpack I have has the internal wiring and the headphone jack on one of the straps -- not a headphone slot-thru like some have described. I do not use the headphone wiring so cannot comment on it.
The water bottle pockets on the sides are a great feature. They hold the big water bottles (1 liter) and are sturdy. There is also a cinch strap that I use to secure the water bottles in place. It works great with the shaped water bottles.
The back and shoulder straps are well-padded. This is a comfy bag to carry, even though it is so huge it is easy to pack it really heavy.
This bag seems to wear very well. I have been using mine for two years and it is not showing any signs of wear so far.
One thing I have noticed is that the zippers aren't the smoothest zipping ones - of course, that might be because they are very heavy duty zippers and have large teeth. I haven't ever had trouble with them, just noticed they aren't super-smooth.

I have had this backpack for 3 months now and I absolutley love it. It has plenty of room for my 15.4inch screened Dell laptop. It has tons of space and I mean tons, the thing has room enough for shoes if you need. The side pockets are nice for your brick laptop charger and it even has a cup holder on the side that comes in handy for a water battle holder. So far the only drawbacks I have had is it doesent offer best in class protection for your laptop in a severe drop situation and it may be too big for some people. I have gotten many compliments on it, a friend bought the same one and it has room enough for his 17 inch Toshiba laptop. He also uses it for a travel carry on and diaper bag! I would recomend this backpack to anyone.

I've owned a number of bags, and this is more than a laptop backpack. Nice weight,strong construction, and lots of different size compartments add to the versatility. This is a longtime keeper.

I was looking for a bag to carry my lap top,but my son asked what I really wanted and told me I should look at the back packs. I saw this and thought it would be what I needed, so I bought it and I think I made a good choice. I like all the pockets and places to carry other stuff.

I looked everywhere for a professional-looking laptop backpack, and was initially thrilled to find this one. It seemed perfect...until I got it and realized it's far too large for me. Don't get me wrong, this is a great bag: professional, nice construction, great compartments, nice laptop protection, and very comfortable with the padded straps and back. However, I didn't realize just how big this bag was until I saw it in person. I am 5'3" and this bag made me look like I'd topple over (my husband thought it was hilarious), not to mention that I only need a bag big enough to carry my laptop with power cord, a couple notebooks, a bunch of papers, and some personal belongings. Sad this one didn't work out, but I think it would be a great choice for someone with lots of stuff to carry around on a regular basis.
