this bag can protect my tablet from rain?

A sprinkle here and there.. walking from point to point "Yes". But if your talking about a hard down pour and sitting in the rain.. that's a negative. -hope this helped

This backpack is not impermeable... It will be ok to protect it if starts to rain and you arrive fast to a dry place.

It's made of good quality material and the padded computer space is up against your back underneath the zipper. I used mine in moderate rain without an umbrella with no leakage. Can't say what would happen in a downpour. In the past with other backpacks, I've used a plastic shopping bag and tied the handles underneath the straps and just let it lay over the top of the pack for added protection in heavy rain. Haven't done that with this one yet. I think it's a great pack

It's not waterproof but you'd have to be very unlucky. There is a lot of padding and multiple layers. It'd need a lot of rain to be a problem I think. So much rain I'd be looking for a bloke with an arc full of animals...

Yes, in light rain. I use an umbrella in heavy rain and the contents of the bag stay dry.

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.

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.

Yes. The materials are thick and sturdy, and I have had no problem with rain, even with the top of my laptop being pressed against the zipper. That being said, I would suggest that you have your tablet in a plastic case in case of a deluge. It is entirely possible that water would wick into the bag, especially around the zipper. Of course, this bag isn't really designed for all-weather, like a hiking bag would be, and even those can see some seepage. With basic care, you should be fine.

yes, its water resistant, i had it soaked in the rain and inside was pretty dry. I don't know about submerging the bag though...

If I walk in the rain with the bag for a while, it is not a problem at all. But if you soak it in water, I am sure it will leak somewhere. I am very happy with the bag, good quality.

Based on my experience it will be OK for a while in normal rain, but really would not keep everything dry if exposed to water for long periods of time. The good thing is that the laptop is in a separate case that will add another layer of protection. But if you are looking for 100% rugged take anywhere type of case this is not it.

I have never used it in rain. Would be ok in light rain. I would keep a water proof bag handy inside backpack for camera

Yes, the entire case is water resisted, there is a zipper so some water may get in under very hard rain but so far so good. GREAT BAG

I've ridden in the rain with no problem, but I wouldn't trust my phone in the case without a plastic bag over it.

I would classify this bag as moderately water resistent. It will stand up to a brief rain shower 15 min or so. It is far from being waterproof.Steve

I believe a minipad would fit. I have a Samsung Galaxy notebook with cover and fits fine. I've carriedthis "purse" in the rain and never had a problem with getting wet, so I would say it's rainproof. patty

This bag is sold by Best Buy. Take your tablet to the store and see if it will fit your needs. If it does, buy it from Amazon.

I have just had a good look at my case and I think the case would be OK for gentle rain.The openings are at each side of the case and are small. Of course it would depend on how long the case was exposed to rain as once inside the case it has nowhere to escape.

To be honest, I haven't tested it in the rain. I would hazard a guess and say that it will not be very waterproof. Certainly in the case of the upper compartment. Perhaps the inner area might remain dry in a light drizzle but in a downpour I would think not. As far as I can tell there is no rubber coating on the inner lining and thus in my opinion, this may not provide the protection that you need. I will be using plastic bags to protect my electronics. Having said that, I really like this bag. Hope that this helps.

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.

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?

Yes it should be able too, this bag has been really nice, other than the strap location to be honest. I mostly through it inside another bag to nicely secure my tablet and cushion it from damage of anything else in that bigger bag, and in better weather is nicer to just carry around.

It is not water resistant. I used it on a two week vacation. Used it in light rain the bag was soaked. It's a decent bag but not for rugged use.

yes but I would suggest that you have a little something over it for excessive rain,i have mine and love it.
