Double Protection - The Laptop Sleeves Buying Guide


Category: Laptop cases Buying Guides

Laptop sleeves, also called slip cases, protect your priced laptop from bumps and other kinds of physical damage.
These well-padded cases help make traveling with your mobile gear a breeze. Offering an added sense of protection, laptop sleeves are great for your expensive possession.

Many notebook carrying bags on the market come with built-in laptop sleeves, and you can also find separate laptop sleeves. If you already have some sort of bags you want to put your laptop in, you can simply buy a custom sleeve and slip it into your bag. In this way, you'll turn a normal messenger or backpack into a laptop case. You'll avoid attracting the attention of thieves, and spend less than buying the bag with an already attached sleeve.

When shopping for a laptop sleeve, size usually tops the concerns. Today's laptop sleeves are designed to accommodate a wide range of laptops with different screen sizes, from 12" all the way up to 17". And many manufacturers offer you customized sizes and embroidery. It is important to choose the right size for your computer so that the sleeve can fit it and protect it from daily wear like a second skin.

Your laptop sleeve should have adequate padding to protect the laptop inside. Dense foam padding (usually made of durable neoprene) should be all around and the edges should be reinforced for added protection. Another detail to look for is a flap under the zipper, since it helps keep your laptop from being scratched by the zipper teeth. And it will be better if the sleeve is made of weather resistant materials like nylon or leatherette.

Many laptop sleeves come with top-loading design for easy access. Others may have zippers that go half way or all the way down the sides. No matter which design you prefer, make sure the zippers are of high quality. Choose zippers with large teeth that are made of durable materials because cheap, shabby zippers will break down after just several slides, leaving the whole laptop sleeve useless.

Most laptop sleeves don't allow for additional storage, but some models come with convenient external pockets to store CD-ROMs and other small objects. From some other reviews, we've noticed the customers think it is inconvenient that these sleeves can't really be carried around by themselves, so you may want to choose a model with a built-in handle. In fact, many companies have started adding hooks to the sleeves and selling shoulder straps for easy transport.
