The HP Prelude laptop backpack has dropped below £10, offering the 'perfect thickness and material' for protecting laptops. Usually £29.99, the stylish rucksack is designed to keep 15.6-inch devices secure without looking clunky.
Shopping through TopCashback slashes the price further. New members can combine the Argos cost with a £15 welcome bonus and cashback, cutting the price to £9.37. Existing Argos customers new to TopCashback can secure it for £9.89.
Features and customer feedback
The bag features water-resistant fabric, cushioning, and storage, costing a fraction of premium brands like Rains, whose Rolltop rucksack retails for £109. The HP Prelude also accommodates 13 and 14-inch laptops.
One Argos customer said: "It keeps my 14-inch laptop tight along with mouse and lunch. Even with the laptop, there's still space to fit other items. Overall excellent, it is waterproof and made of premium material." Another user noted: "This is a good bag. It's nicely padded for a laptop, spare room for pens and pads."
A shopper felt their laptop was 'quite protected' and praised the backpack as 'comfortable to wear'. Another said: "Perfect thickness and material." However, the same customer noted it was 'missing a hole for a powerbank cable' but concluded it was 'worth it'.
Alternative options
For those seeking a budget-friendly alternative, the Lenovo casual backpack on Amazon, with a 15-inch laptop compartment, is available for £15.99. While not water-resistant, its water-repellent fabric offers protection in light showers.
