00:00:07.359 --> 00:00:15.200
So today is going to be a bit of a first for me. This is the only

00:00:12.080 --> 00:00:17.600
backpack that I have ever unbagged on my

00:00:15.200 --> 00:00:24.800
channel and there's a very good reason for that. This is an Averki backpack and

00:00:20.560 --> 00:00:27.359
it is designed for technology users like

00:00:24.800 --> 00:00:32.399
myself. So, my backpack that I usually use is a Windows Vista brand backpack.

00:00:30.480 --> 00:00:36.960
And we're going to see how well the Averki stands up to the kind of load

00:00:35.040 --> 00:00:42.559
that I typically carry around with me, including, you know, mouse, mouse pad,

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:46.160
um, a tablet, you know, various chargers. We're going to see how much

00:00:44.079 --> 00:00:50.800
room it has and how well it can accommodate these things. So, come here

00:00:48.160 --> 00:00:54.480
and have a closer look. Okay, so aki style that works. This is the Averky

00:00:52.320 --> 00:00:58.640
Beacon. And what has it got to say for itself? in terms of features. So,

00:00:56.559 --> 00:01:01.840
innovation is the result of challenging the mind to overcome the obstacles that

00:01:00.320 --> 00:01:05.920
others have sidestepped. The design studio uses this mentality to consistent

00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:08.720
employ new and unique ideas in the creation of our products. I've heard

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:13.760
very good things about these backpacks. So, I'm actually quite excited about

00:01:10.240 --> 00:01:16.720
this 180° variable opening front pocket.

00:01:13.760 --> 00:01:19.680
Okay, cool. Uh 4point weight distribution for added safety and

00:01:18.159 --> 00:01:24.479
comfort. Okay, neat. Uh stowaway weather

00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:30.000
resistant shield. That's handy. Dedicated paddic notebook slot with

00:01:26.880 --> 00:01:31.759
anti-cratch fur liner. Okay. Quick

00:01:30.000 --> 00:01:36.799
access hip pockets with mobile phone audio vents. That's handy as well. Dual

00:01:34.479 --> 00:01:40.799
reinforced handles for lifting heavy loads. Where are the dual reinforced

00:01:39.200 --> 00:01:43.920
handles? H.

00:01:42.640 --> 00:01:49.040
We'll have to find those a little bit later. Oh, well, here's one of them.

00:01:46.079 --> 00:01:52.560
Okay. And that does look reinforced. Integrated audio cable management loop.

00:01:51.040 --> 00:01:56.479
Okay. Interesting. What else we got in here? limited lifetime warranty

00:01:54.799 --> 00:02:05.200
protection. Okay, that's handy. So, why don't we why don't we get started here? So, on the back, we've got a couple kind

00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:06.960
of a adjustable looking straps. Got a

00:02:05.200 --> 00:02:13.680
couple little loops right here. We've got Aha. Here is our uh dedicated audio

00:02:10.479 --> 00:02:16.480
cable management doodad. So, you can run

00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:20.480
your cable up through here and up through here. So, it won't get caught on

00:02:19.360 --> 00:02:26.000
anything when you're taking your backpack on and off. That is incredibly

00:02:22.959 --> 00:02:28.000
handy. The overall padding quality on

00:02:26.000 --> 00:02:33.840
the straps, I'd say, is very good, comparable, if not better than my

00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:36.480
existing uh Windows Vista backpack. But

00:02:33.840 --> 00:02:39.200
then I think almost, as far as others, most people are concerned, almost

00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:43.920
anything is an improvement over Windows Vista. So, let's go ahead and put it on

00:02:41.599 --> 00:02:48.720
and see. Okay, so sits right on right where it should on the shoulder. Okay,

00:02:46.400 --> 00:02:53.760
let's see what else we got here. That looks like probably the stowaway

00:02:51.519 --> 00:02:58.239
weatherproof shield. Now, weatherproof is sort of uh one of those things that

00:02:56.000 --> 00:03:02.720
gets thrown around an awful lot. I wouldn't expect to be necessarily taking

00:03:00.080 --> 00:03:07.920
this, you know, on a motorcycle with you in the rain and expecting nothing inside

00:03:05.120 --> 00:03:12.640
to get even damp, but I would expect it to keep the rain off enough that nothing

00:03:10.560 --> 00:03:17.360
should get damaged or soaked through this layer and then this layer and then

00:03:15.840 --> 00:03:21.120
whatever else that you have inside the bag. So, that is a very cool little

00:03:19.440 --> 00:03:25.280
feature. And the fact that it stows away like that means that you can just kind

00:03:22.720 --> 00:03:29.040
of cram it away and only use it and only have it affect the aesthetic of the bag

00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:31.920
when you actually need it. So, yeah, there you go. Weatherproof shield. I

00:03:30.640 --> 00:03:37.519
could have just read that little tag and then I'd have known what it was. So, with audio vents, here are the audio

00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:41.840
vents. Although, oh, look at that. They're not just um simple openings. So,

00:03:40.319 --> 00:03:45.599
they should actually be a little bit weather resistant themselves. That's

00:03:43.599 --> 00:03:49.599
kind of nice. There we go. Yeah. So, there is a fabric on the other side of

00:03:47.120 --> 00:03:52.400
it, the liner. You can also use it for, you know, school. If you're like, if

00:03:51.120 --> 00:03:57.280
your mom's like, "Why do you need this bag?" You could be like, "Oh, cuz I can store my pens and calculators in it."

00:03:56.080 --> 00:04:03.360
But really, what you're doing is you're putting like your phone and your DS in it and whatever else. Do kids still use

00:04:00.640 --> 00:04:07.200
DS's? I don't know. This one does not have the audio vents, but it has a

00:04:05.760 --> 00:04:11.439
slightly different cable management system, and it does have a loop for hanging, you know, keychain or whatever

00:04:10.159 --> 00:04:17.040
else off of it. So, that's kind of handy. There you go. You got two little pockets there.

00:04:15.439 --> 00:04:21.280
Overall, I'd say the build quality is just outstanding on this so far.

00:04:19.120 --> 00:04:26.639
Materials used are very, very robust feeling and all the zippers have slid

00:04:23.120 --> 00:04:29.360
very, very easily.

00:04:26.639 --> 00:04:34.240
Okay. Well, that was my fault. Okay, so let's keep going. Here is the 30 or

00:04:32.000 --> 00:04:37.280
180°. Oh. Oh, there's the other reinforced handle. So, there's the two

00:04:35.919 --> 00:04:43.360
reinforced handles, and they are definitely about as reinforced as they

00:04:39.520 --> 00:04:47.680
get. So, let's keep undoing things here.

00:04:43.360 --> 00:04:50.400
Let's see what this is. So, here we have

00:04:47.680 --> 00:04:53.680
some storage stuff. So, there's a pocket there. Love

00:04:52.240 --> 00:05:00.000
lots and lots of individual little pockets. Helps you stay organized. So,

00:04:55.919 --> 00:05:02.080
that goes in there. And then we've got

00:05:00.000 --> 00:05:07.440
Oh, hold on. Let's do this one first. So, there is the laptop. Ooh, check this

00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:10.800
out. So, it's not real fur. Very disappointed about that. Actually, I'm

00:05:08.800 --> 00:05:17.759
not. It's okay. So, it's not real fur, but that is very, very soft. So, let's

00:05:13.840 --> 00:05:21.440
go ahead and see if it will fit my huge

00:05:17.759 --> 00:05:24.560
15.4 inch gaming laptop. Wow. Very

00:05:21.440 --> 00:05:26.320
easily. Tons and tons of space left over

00:05:24.560 --> 00:05:30.320
once I put my notebook in there. So, that's uh that's awesome. It barely

00:05:28.000 --> 00:05:33.120
barely barely fits in my uh in my Microsoft bag. So, here, why don't we

00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:38.160
leave that in there, actually. All right. So, let's keep going here.

00:05:36.240 --> 00:05:44.800
So, Here

00:05:40.080 --> 00:05:47.039
is a Oh, is this the inside piece for

00:05:44.800 --> 00:05:49.919
the notebook bag? You know what? Give me a

00:05:48.320 --> 00:05:54.479
second to figure out how this works. Okay, so we figured out how the 180°

00:05:52.400 --> 00:05:58.479
opening thing works. You just undo these buckles and then these zippers actually

00:05:56.560 --> 00:06:02.639
go all the way down to the bottom of the bag. However, I'm not going to bother

00:06:00.400 --> 00:06:06.639
doing that for the video. And then this just looks like another padded like

00:06:04.720 --> 00:06:11.759
pouchy thing that you can that you can put stuff in. So, this does go in here

00:06:09.120 --> 00:06:15.440
with its furlined protectiveness. And then, you know, maybe if we had a tablet

00:06:13.919 --> 00:06:18.319
computer that we wanted to have a little bit of extra padding, we could chuck

00:06:17.199 --> 00:06:24.800
that in there. Although, it looks like you could keep like another laptop in it. No problem. Although, you don't have

00:06:22.080 --> 00:06:29.919
to use it. So, you can take it out. And then you've got a bunch more pouches and

00:06:27.680 --> 00:06:33.919
pockets and stuff. So, actually, that's probably a better place for my uh for my

00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:38.720
tablet. There we go. Throw that in there. And then we've got pieces of

00:06:36.960 --> 00:06:43.440
Velcro here that help you to keep this button closed. It also will hold this.

00:06:41.039 --> 00:06:48.560
Nope. This is to close this. Okay, good. Now I understand. Okay. I mean, really,

00:06:46.400 --> 00:06:53.840
it's how they intend you to use it is sort of not that important, but the the

00:06:52.479 --> 00:06:58.400
most important thing is just there's lots of different ways to organize your stuff in here. So, we've got this is

00:06:56.880 --> 00:07:02.160
just a divider. It doesn't go all the way down to the bottom, but feels fairly

00:07:00.000 --> 00:07:05.919
well built, so it should stand up to the test of time. And then this can be

00:07:03.520 --> 00:07:09.120
closed up there so you can hold in whatever is there. And then you finally

00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:12.960
got with more padding on the bottom. Although how Oh, that's that's kind of

00:07:10.800 --> 00:07:16.400
that's kind of cute. Dual dual usage padding. So that's your rainproof shield

00:07:14.720 --> 00:07:19.919
down there. And then finally some more pockets. So this is where I might keep

00:07:17.759 --> 00:07:23.440
something like spare batteries or uh jeweler screwdrivers or whatever other

00:07:22.000 --> 00:07:29.360
tools. And oh, look at that. They're lined with uh with nice soft material

00:07:27.360 --> 00:07:33.520
also. Look at that. Oh, that's awesome. Even the sides.

00:07:31.680 --> 00:07:38.720
Pretty good attention to detail in here. I can see why these bags are uh are

00:07:35.440 --> 00:07:41.360
becoming so popular. Cool. Well, I think

00:07:38.720 --> 00:07:46.240
that pretty much covers it. So, just to uh to remind you guys again, this is the

00:07:43.199 --> 00:07:48.479
Averki Beacon. And I think that it would

00:07:46.240 --> 00:07:52.960
uh Oh, look at that. The bottom is like a very, very thick, robust, rubbery

00:07:51.520 --> 00:07:59.840
material. You could pretty much drag this thing around and I wouldn't expect it to be subjected to any real damage.

00:07:57.599 --> 00:08:04.960
So, thank you. Here. I wouldn't be complete without, you know, a fashion

00:08:01.759 --> 00:08:04.960
show shot of it.
