<p></em></p><p>At this price point, we would have loved to have seen a battery pack included into the bag. It seems like a way the industry is headed.</p><p>However, if you are buying a bag with an eye on holding your laptop, tablet and camera, the chances are solid that you already have a few handy portable chargers at home.</p><p>The features that are included are cleverly installed and have an eye on the modern traveler.</p><p>From the reflective tape to the security lock, this is a bag you will feel comfortable lugging around, especially with your prized possessions and passport in tow.</p><p>I especially enjoyed the power bank slot, which can be accessed from the outside so you don't have to lug around that cumbersome device in your pocket.</p><p><strong>Score: </strong>9 out of 10</p><p><strong>Comfort: </strong></p><p>Wearing this bag was a delight. The back of the bag is covered with memory foam sections that really do help with carrying a heavy bag.</p><p>The campaign explains: "Udee backpack improves weight distribution with careful design features, including an S-shaped belt, X-shaped back support structure, and PE material."</p><p>Normally a fully packed bag is a chore. The Udee took the work out of toting our valuables though.</p><p>Score: 10 out of 10</p><p><strong>Look: </strong></p><p>This is purely subjective. What you see at the campaign is what you get in the two available colors in the light gray and dark gray bags.</p><p>So, score accordingly, but I absolutely loved the simplistic yet sophisticated look of the bag. It's sleek, feels sturdy and has a style that will eventually make other travelers ask you where you got your bag.</p><p><strong>Score:</strong> 10 out of 10</p><p><strong>Overall:</strong> 48 out of 50</p><p>Storage: 10</p><p>Durability: 9</p><p>Features: 9</p><p>Comfort: 10</p><p>Look: 10</p><p>As you can tell, I really enjoyed the Udee. It's at the top of my list of bags I will take out of the closet and use, not just on my photography sessions, but anytime I'm on the road.</p><p>Its features are smart and its design elegant. Whether it warrants over $100 of your money is completely up to you.</p>
