Quick answer

The Tech Folio Tank Backpack fits up to an 18-inch laptop, a tablet, and a full folio of accessories. Use the dedicated padded pockets and see-through zippered organizers to keep everything secure and easy to find.

Why size and layout matter

This is the largest laptop backpack Waterfield makes, so it suits power users with big machines or multiple devices. The trade-off is that it’s bulkier than a slim commuter pack—ideal when you need to carry a 17- or 18-inch laptop plus a tablet and a full accessory kit, but overkill if you only carry a small ultrabook.

The separate folio section with see-through zippered pockets is a standout feature: it keeps cables, chargers, and small gadgets visible and accessible without digging through the main compartment.

How to pack your Tech Folio Tank Backpack

  1. 1. Load the laptop and tablet pockets first: Slide your laptop into the larger padded pocket and your tablet into the second padded pocket. Both are padded and separate, so devices won’t scratch each other. Common mistake: trying to cram both devices into one pocket—use both dedicated slots.
  2. 2. Organize accessories in the folio section: Place cables, chargers, power banks, and small gadgets into the see-through zippered pockets. Group similar items together so you can grab what you need at a glance. Checkpoint: avoid overstuffing a single pocket; distribute weight evenly to keep the folio flat.
  3. 3. Use the main compartment for bulkier items: After the folio is closed, the remaining main compartment space is for a jacket, lunch bag, or notebook. Keep heavier items closer to your back for better balance. Common mistake: filling the main compartment first, which makes the folio hard to access—pack folio items before adding bulk.
  4. 4. Secure loose items in the front pocket: Use the front zippered pocket for items you need quickly: phone, keys, wallet, or a small notebook. This pocket is shallow, so don’t overfill it. Checkpoint: if the front pocket bulges, redistribute items to the folio or main compartment.
