Thank you for lighting up the interior. You are the only person who has done that with all of the reviews that I've seen for TomToc bags. Subscribed.

Thanks glad I could help. I think that is one of those things that happens when you actually use the bag over just here it is and here are the features.

Thanks glad to hear that! That is why I’m here.

I picked this bag up when it came out and i like it so far. The only thing i'd add is maybe some inner pockets in the front. Because the material is so soft, everything kind of shifts to the bottom and the top of the bag feels like wasted space.

@mfinresearch6462 Ай бұрын

I agree with you on that. I think that is most evident on the front pocket. A little bit taller and a few pouches could go in there easily. Hope it works out. Did you consider the T24?

I am curious if everything gets jumbled together in the bottom of the pouch and it gets bulky? I used to hate this back in the day when I tried to use fanny packs with the straps cut off in backpacks, top would be skinny and all the packs in the bottom. Great review and video work with the interior of the sling, this one might have dropped off my list.

Thanks for watching!! Since I switch between bags a bit I go for a more modular approach with pouches based on what I need that day. Since the sling is large enough I stand the pouches up and it avoids that problem. The only thing I had to dig for a few times was the light I used in the video. If I remember, you have the T-74, which is the better bag so between the two I would take that one 9/10 unless I buy a larger Macbook one day. After seeing your list (that caused my list to get longer by the way) I am glad to help take an item off.

Hi, I'm lookin to buy a sling bag for travel and EDC, I'm stuck in between the T24 7l or this one. Not sure which to go for especially if I want to carry a fujifilm mini evo camera. Any recommendations between these 2 or perhaps any other 7l-9l bags? Thanks :).

@mfinresearch6462 Ай бұрын

Thanks for watching. Looking at the camera, I think both bags would meet your needs. I'm not sure if you saw it, but I do have a video on the T24. I also decided to compare the two and that video is coming out 5:00 PM Central Friday. I think it will give you a good rundown between the two. After those let me know what you decide. If you have any more questions, I would be more than happy to help.

@@mfinresearch6462 Ah perfect, Yeah I've watched the video before (very thorough review btw) but I'm just indecisive haha. l'll have to check that comparison video out for sure, thanks a lot. You deserve more subs.

Do you think this would fit a T14S Thinkpad that's 12.5"x8.9"? (MBP14 is 12.3"x8.7 I believe) It's a little irregular because it's not a "16:9" aspect ratio like a MBP it's a "16:10". Thanks! Great video!

@mfinresearch6462 Ай бұрын

I wont' say I'm 100% sure but it seems like it might. I tested an old Chromebook that was 12.2x9.7. I had enough space on the sides (with some space to spare) but not at the corners when trying to close the sling. Since you have .8" less to deal with you should be okay.

@@mfinresearch6462 thanks dude! I'm trying to avoid spending over $100 on the aer travel sling 2 because I mostly use it to walk about 10min to a coffee shop or brewery with my laptop and headphones and that travel sling is so dang big for such a simple thing haha. Thanks again!

@mfinresearch6462 Ай бұрын

I think Tomtoc give you a good bit of what Aer give you for a lower price. I do think my Aer bags are a bit nicer, I still think Tomtoc is doing a fantastic job. I just hope their prices don't start to creep too much in the future.

@uhN0id Ай бұрын

@@mfinresearch6462 yeah that's a big reason I'm looking up these videos for tomtoc. My only concern is the strap compared to the Aer bags which seem nicer overall.

@mfinresearch6462 Ай бұрын

Aer is definitely nicer but Tomtoc is a lot of value for the dollar.
