The Osprey Quantum Pack is a daypack that makes me wonder if Osprey has some sort of pocket engineer sitting around thinking of awesome and functional pockets to add to their packs. Maybe engineer isn't the right word. Pocket Jedi Master might be more appropriate. This backpack features a laptop pocket, an internal document sleeve, an MP3 pocket, a front pocket with a mini-organizer, a front stretch mesh pocket, and plenty of extra room in the bag to spare. Everything has a spot without having excessive pockets: it's a flawless balance of pockets that only the most advanced Pocket Jedi Master could create but is for everyone to appreciate. Ideal for trekking across campus or for a quick overnight or daytrip, this bag is always ready to go and looks great carrying anything. And don't worry about being delicate with your daypack: use it and abuse it without worries thanks to it's durable ripstop nylon construction.

At 98 mm underfoot, the HardSide is the narrowest ski built with the Hybritech sidewall construction. A few short years ago, it would have been considered a powder ski, and it certainly won’t disappoint on the deep days. However, it’s designed for skiers who’s off piste playgrounds consist more of cut up crud and firm snow than bottomless powder, so we gave it slight shovel rocker for versatility, and a powerful metal laminate construction for race room precision, stability and edge hold.

Quality Pack
First, I was expecting the mango color to be brighter. It is definitely much more of a muddy gold than the picture lets on (at least on my computer), but it is striking nonetheless and a nice change from your standard black and navy blue backpack.
Second, the adjustable strap cords are very long on this pack. Makes for infinite adjustment possibilities I suppose, but even with a full pack I still feel like I am trailing ribbons everywhere I go...
Now, my most serious complaint regarding the design of this pack has to do with the POCKETS. The placement of the small front pocket, positioned near the top of the pack, is awkward. It should be noted that this pocket IS NOT DEEP AT ALL, and that if you overstuff it (as I like to do) it protrudes not outward but inward and can seriously obstruct your access to the lower region of the main compartment. If another handy pocket for small items needed on-demand was provided, I wouldn't have to overstuff this pocket. However, there is just no other option with this pack... As for the side pockets, they are neat and great for holding certain things like an umbrella or hairbrush, but they are neither easy nor comfortable to access as the adjustment straps run right across them and tend to get in the way.
I absolutely love this backpack. I had been looking for a new backpack for over a year and could never bring myself to spend the money on one in case I didn't like it. I finally stumbled across this one and talked to a very helpful person who told me all about it. My biggest concern was it being spacious enough for all of my books. I'm in nursing school and have to tote around anywhere from 1 binder to 4 textbooks and 2 binders. This backpack carries it all and stays comfortable while doing it. I have to say it is absolutely amazing for all of my needs. On another awesome note, the waterpack pouch doubles as an awesome laptop sleeve that fits my 13" macbook pro perfectly and even leaves space. Just when you think it can't fit any more stuff, there is an outside pouch that stretches to hold my planner, drug book (which is pretty thick), and even a snack. And the side pouches stretch big enough to hold a nalgene. All in all this backpack rocks and I would suggest it to anybody. One last thing, I am an avid hiker and this pack doubles as a great daypack. Most importantly besides it keeping your back comfortable, it has this awesome foam layer that doesn't make your back sweat like normal bags. Once again, can't praise this pack enough. And I'm 5'5" and about 135 lbs. and it isn't bulky on me at all!!
Almost the perfect bag
I really like the laptop compartment but it does not have very good padding. I recommend having a hard shell or a sleeve on your computer if you are not careful when putting your bag down. The plus side to the lack off padding is that is makes this a great day pack when the laptop compartment is empty.
I love the deep pockets and all the adjustable straps. The long straps can get in the way when not in use. The outer most pocket is a great pocket for keys but the zipper flap gets in the way and may not lend it self to one handed quick access.
Overall the bag is great, large capacity, and light weight. Fits better than any Ogio or Targus bag that I've ever had.
Osprey Quantum Pack
Great for commuting with 2 laptops
I like that even with two laptops in the main compartment, the bag rides flat and close to my back. The material is lightweight and feels durable. The suspension straps are nice and adjustable.
The bag isn't particularly water-resistant; I ended up treating it with Nikwax TX Direct. It would be better if it had more individual pockets overall. Also, the side pockets are difficult to access when the side straps are latched. Sometimes items in the side pockets interfere with loading larger items in the pack's main compartment. For users with less to carry, I think the Osprey Comet might be a better option.
Okay, honestly I was a little disappointed when I first got this pack in the mail. For the price I expected cushier, thicker shoulder straps compared to what is there, and other small amenities that other packs seem to have. After a few days, however, I found there are ways to customize how the pack rides on your back by adjusting certain straps, and this made it so cushier straps weren't necessary. After a week the pack grew on me even more, both in style and utility. I use it primarily for school and can fit a 15" laptop, four spiral notebooks, textbook, iPad, and there is room to spare. All in all I would say this is a great pack, would give it five stars if it wasn't quite as expensive.
Amazing Campus Backpack!
super versatile! great for school, work and day hikes
Negative Reviews:
Not what I wold expect from osprey...
Neutral Reviews:
Great backpack but colors are bit off
Fabric gets caught in the zipper
There is one frustration that keeps me from giving the pack 4 or 5 stars. There's a little edge of fabric meant to cover the zipper tracks when the pack is zipped closed, and more often than not the zipper gets caught on this fabric when I'm zipping up the pack. It takes me a little bit of finessing each time to get the zipper unstuck and close the pack.
