Is it able to protect a laptop really well? Like from falls and water?

I don't think it is waterproof at all. The pocket for the laptop is a nice solid shell material so it would protect it from a short drop.

This bag has a separate compartment for the laptop on the back with a lot of padding on both sides. I believe that it will protect the laptop as well or better than "standard" bags. the compartment is water resistant but not water proof. It is totally fine for treks in the rain or snow. I really like this bag and think it is a great value. I've recevied compliments on the looks and it holds my MacBook and iPad perfectly.

It's padded enough to protect it from short falls less than 4 feet. If it gets slammed down it won't protect it. I've dropped it form shoulder height and i'm 5'10" there was no damage. As for water I don't know if it was brief, I'd say yes

Yes. It does a good job of protecting the computer however my wife quit using it because of how awkward it is when trying to use her laptop. If u want one, I'll be glad to sell one like new for half the price. jbroome68@gmail.com

It is relatively water resistant. I would guess that if you were in a torrential downpour for 5-8 minutes your laptop would be fine. 20 minutes is a long time to stand in a downpour. You may want a pelican case for your computer is this is a situation you find yourself in often. I absolutely love mine and I have been in the rain with it before and have had no issues what so ever. It is not water proof but is exceptionally resistant to rainfall.

When I first got it I tested the water resistance and yes it worked to keep water out but the problem is it is very fragile so if you drop it once...chances are it won't be water proof anymore

It wont protect against water, but it will protect against dropping within reason. It surrounds all edges of the kindle and if you drop it screen down, the screen wont hIT the ground because the case comes over the edges of the front. I love it! I feel more confident if I drop it.

Although I have not had mine out in the rain, I would suspect that this bag would provide a good amount of protection. It has a quality zipper an nylon which repels water. Overall I wouldnt be afraid of having my tablet or laptop out in the elements with this bag however if it was pouring down I think I would trow in a big ziplock for added protection.

It is merely decorative. It's like a sticker that fits on the laptop. It will certainly not protect it from spills or falls.

Highly unlikely. I have dropped mine twice and it is well protected on the edges. Very high quality case for the money with screen protector compared to what you can purchase elsewhere.

I would answer yes, unless you're concerned about it getting wet. Case seems good for accidental dropping.

It is a plastic case, so it offers some protection but I wouldn't consider it "safe from a fall". The screen sits in a slot provided for it...it can move if jostled.

It is not water proof if you drop it in water, and it becomes completely submerged. It does protect it from rain and splashes.

According to the documentation it is "water proof" up to 30 min fully submerged at 1m. Translation yes unless you are swimming with it, it keep you laptop nice and dry. I love mine and have walked in the ran with it moving from site to site and it kept my laptop dry. Only draw back is weight

It's could block out a few drops bc it has port covers and a screen protector but don't submerge it I'm water

No it doesn't it's primairly to protect from dropping, standing on it, that kind of thing. It's not waterproof or spillproof at all.

I wouldn't even consider it. If the legs were extended high enough to have the laptop be above water, the stand would be way too unstable and send the laptop into the water. If your laptop were waterproof, at least you might not get an electrical shock. However, I have never heard of a totally waterproof laptop.

I checked with my son, and he said it has kept his laptop protected and dry. He said he hasn't really had it in heavy rain though.

Is this water-proof? I mean, can I walk in the rain with it without fearing that my laptop and my books are going to get wet?
