Samsonite Torus Solar Backpack Review

Here I come with this Samsonite Torus Solar Backpack. It recharges your gadgets, carries your things and what more it does this with the help of a solar panel. Sounds cool, ain't it? The primary need of all modern gadgets is battery cause every portable gadget needs one. This Torus Solar backpack, as said, packs a solar charger to power up your gadgets on the move. So whether you are moving about the city or trekking, your gadgets in bag are always charger and ready.

Pros
  • The battery reservoir in this backpack works well and charges almost all handsets and cameras to at least 50%
  • This bag doesn't need to be facing sunlight all the time. As long as the prominent light source is sun, it'll keep charging, albeit at slower rate.
  • The charging unit is detachable, so if you're trekking, you can leave your bulky backpack at the camp while you travel with the solar pack to keep your gadgets charged.
Cons
  • The time taken to charge up the built-in battery is excruciating. Samsonite claims it takes 4 hours for a full charge, but it, more or less, takes 16 hours when outdoors.
  • The battery is too small to power-up laptops and high-end tabs fully.
  • Having slots for every type of gadget makes the Torus big and bulky. And the place left for other stuff is little. The solar charger is not light. So, you might end up having a heavy backpack that may not let you carry everything you need
Specs
  • Special slots for laptop, tablet, mobile, camera
  • Detachable solar panel zip pouch
  • 1600mAh battery
  • Connectors for micro USB and two other common pin sizes for laptops, phones and tabs
  • Made from 900D and 1680D polyester, lined with high-density polyester
