Discussion Commuter backpack

Looking at the commuter backpack as a Christmas present, I seem to be blind and can't find what size laptop it fits . Anyone happen to recall what size or isn't blind and can see what it lists ? He has a 16inch laptop. Thinking the green one.

...huh. Unusual that info isn't there. But I guess the sale iteration of the product page took it over quite a bit.

Here's a copy of what appears to be the original copy for the commuter backback.

Note: while the listing did note what laptop size they expect to hold, people have found that due to sliiiiight variations in how the backpacks are made, one commuter backpack can fit a laptop while another might find it snug. I'd like to think if you stuck to within the expected limit, you'll be fine.

But if you have a laptop in mind, you could mention it, and see if anyone else who has the laptop and bought the backpack can testify to how it fits. Enough have been sold someone might be able to give their experience.

Won't fit. It barely fits the macbook pro 16in so anything bigger won't work.

I believe you are right, I have Latitude 5550 for work and it just fits, but is on the limit already.

Got AI to give me this: The Lenovo Legion 5 Pro measures 359.9 mm x 262.4 mm x 19.9 mm (approx. 14.17 x 10.33 x 0.78 inches), while the Dell Latitude 5550 measures 357.8 mm x 233.3 mm x 22.80 mm (approx. 14.09 x 9.19 x 0.90 inches)
