While school may be out for summer, it’s never too early to begin prepping for the new school year. August and September will be here sooner than you think, so as you’re shopping for new clothes, new footwear, and updated electronics, gear, and school supplies for your student, add a new backpack, messenger bag, or protective Chromebook/tablet tote to your shopping list.

If you’re having trouble choosing a style that’s right for your student, use our handy guide below. Mobile Edge offers the industry’s largest selection of messenger bags, backpacks, and totes for students on the go.

  • Choose the Right Size
    1. Laptops—Laptops come in a variety of sizes, ranging from Chromebook, Ultrabooks, and smaller laptops around 10 to 13 inches, to larger laptops measuring 16 to 18 inches. You’ll want to know the size of the laptop your student is or will be transporting.
    2. Smartphones & Tablets—Similarly, mobile devices such as smartphones and tablets come in a wide range of sizes, ranging from the small, which typically measure 8 to 10 inches to the large, which measure 11 to more than 14 inches. Most of our protective cases feature dedicated storage for laptops and mobile devices.
    3. Gaming Consoles—Even the most devoted student needs time to unwind, and for many that means playing video/computer games. When choosing the size of a protective carry case that’s right for your student, don’t forget to factor in the size of his or her gaming console or large laptop, many of which measure between 16 and 18 inches.

    2. Files/Books—In addition to electronics, you’ll want to be sure whichever protective case you choose offers storage and organization for hardcopy files, notebooks, and textbooks.
