I couldn't ask for a better bag for keeping my laptop safe!
This is the best backpack you will ever come across! I am not paid to say this and I am not biased as I try to be objective about everything I review. This backpack is perfect for keeping your laptop safe, not only while travelling or working, but even when not in use! I store my laptop along with a lap tray, portable monitor, power cords, accessories, cleaning supplies for electronics, little mobile printer, portable scanner, and tons of other stuff. No matter how much I stuff in the backpack, it always seems to stay portable and just the right size! The laptop compartment is well padded and there are tons of places to store stuff like portable monitors, tables, etc. The straps are extremely comfortable on my back. I was in a vehicle accident a few years ago and needed emergency spinal fusion surgery. This backpack is so comfortable on my back, no matter what is in it or what it weighs! I am not positive how Osprey has managed to do this, but the weight is so evenly distributed across my body that the pack feels as if it weighs nothing on my back, even when loaded down. There is an easy way to prove this concept as well. Pick up the pack when loaded by the top handle and feel the weight, then throw if on your back and notice the difference! There are so many compartments, and even a padded and felted compartment for delicate items like cellphones. The mesh pocket in the front is extremely durable as well. Mine was accidentally caught on the frame of the car seat, where the seat moves on the metal rail to go back and forth, and the pocket never stretched or tore once removed.Beyond the perfect functionality, the pack has a really nice design and color choice to it. This has been my baby and my full time backpack for travel, work, school, and anything else! There is a reason why Osprey packs cost what they do (which is still a fair price); you really do get that quality and care put into each bag!

Well built, with best features
This backpack really hits the sweet spot for me. It has all the features I want, and the right implementations. It has the soft glasses pocket. It has the organizer section with multiple little pockets for earbuds, keys, etc. It fits a 16" laptop. It has two water bottle pockets, and they are the stretchy kind that do a great job with various sized bottles. It has the front stuff pocket, which is great for holding a hat, hoodie, or small jacket. It lacks all the straps to buckle the bag tightly to the body, but for me, those get in the way a lot and I rarely use them. So I appreciate how clean and simple the exterior of the back looks.

10/10 highly recommend!!
Purchased for a weekend trip to Nashville. It fit three changes of clothes, a pair of shoes, all my toiletries and my laptop. It was very full but easy to carry on the plane and comfortable to wear. Lightweight and great compartment options. I have since used it many times! Great and versatile product.

Osprey Quality with Everyday Versatility
This pack is the ideal blend of daily utility and comfort. It fits a 15" laptop and portable dual monitors plus an iPad easily, with plenty of room for other stuff as well, and the build quality is top-tier. The back panel and straps are breathable for all-day wear. Great for commuting or travel.

Aspects to consider
The Osprey Flare 27L backpack meets expectations in terms of size and comfort. However, there are at least two aspects to consider.1. The need for a chest belt. This will help ensure comfortable carrying of the backpack in hot, cold, or windy conditions without having to constantly adjust it.2. A waterproof inner lining between the laptop sleeve and the back vent. Additionally, a lining made of a more laptop-friendly fabric.

Great day hike, work, and anything backpack
I've been using this backpack for almost a year now and everything about it is pretty great. The back support is awesome and helps keep the shoulder straps exactly where they need to be. Perfect size and fit for medium to large framed people. It's light and durable, zippers never get stuck and feel robust but small. I've used this for work, day hiking and just all around keep it with my and in my car with me wherever I go.
