This backpack can carry everything a gamer needs. Let's check it out
0:04
Dave Taylor here and my daughter's a big fan of the Xbox
0:15
She has an Xbox One S. I know, old school, but she loves it
0:20
She's a hardcore Fortnite. If you have a son or a daughter, they've probably been killed by my daughter
0:25
She's that good. Here's the thing, though. She sometimes heads over to her mom's house and then she wants to take all her gear with her
0:33
That can be a bit of a disaster when it's all just piled up in the car. So, we thought we'd check this out
0:39
This is the Core Gaming Backpack by Mobile Edge. It's a doozy. As you can see, it's pretty big
0:46
But it has everything you need inside. Not only that, it has shock absorbers on the shoulder straps
0:54
And it has this so that you can actually hook it up to your wheeled suitcase if you have one of those
1:00
It basically has everything that you could need in a gamer backpack
1:05
Now, it comes in two models. This is the hard case version and, according to their instructions, the molded front is the MECGBP1
1:16
That's a long name. And then there's another one with a Velcro front so you can put your stickers on if you go to gaming competitions
1:24
And that is the PV1 instead of the BP1. So, that's the instructions out of the way
1:34
Let's see what's inside this really ridiculously well-engineered backpack. So, first off, you always want to have access to things like your smartphone
1:44
So, this has a huge open front. And I even have a phone in here. How about that
1:49
So, we'll put that there. We're going to just start disassembling as we go
1:53
There are tons of pockets on this side of it. And then on this side, one of the things that's really cool is there's a built-in wire because you can get an additional power pack
2:04
And then that'll give you a lot of battery life. And then on the side is a USB plug
2:11
How about that? So, you could actually plug in like your smartphone and charge it or your Switch or something while you're actually at the airport or on the road or on the bus and not have to take anything out of your backpack
2:23
Really cool idea. It is, however, an additional purchase. Now, let's see what else is in here
2:29
There's plenty of space. There's storage for memory cards. I'll give you a close-up here
2:36
Lots to go here. And it goes all the way down to the bottom. So, there's actually a lot of space if you want to put magazines, books, I don't know, change of clothes
2:46
And then we come to the main compartment. And you'll notice these zippers go all the way up and down
2:53
So, here we go. There's a lot of space in here. There's so much space that we have a tablet
3:00
We have a zippered protective compartment controller. We have lower zippered compartments and enough space that you could have headphones, earbuds, whatever else you need
3:16
Notice here's that wire that's still going through there. There's also a fleece-lined container for a tablet
3:23
But it's going to need to be a relatively small tablet. So, if you have like a 12-inch tablet or something, it's a bit too big for that particular space
3:30
That's all right. And then, let me close this up. Because it's also TSA-friendly, which means that it opens flat
3:39
So, what do we see when we open this flat? Well, let's move stuff out of the way and find out. Voila
3:46
Look what we happen to have in here. It fits an Xbox
3:52
So, this is a really nice container. It's checkpoint-friendly, so you can run it through like this
3:59
So, you don't have to actually take your game device or your 17- or 18-inch big laptop out
4:07
It all fits in here. And here's a whole other container. You can put actually a keyboard in here
4:14
It's that long. If you really travel with your own keyboard, this has you covered
4:19
All right. So, all of that. Tons of space, as you can see
4:24
It's really ingeniously built. There's so much storage on this thing that if you run out of space, then it might be because you're just not creative enough
4:34
And on the sides, there are four side pockets. And they are plenty big enough that you can have, like, an HDMI cable
4:41
So, lots going on here. So, up to an 18-inch laptop. This will work with an Xbox One
4:47
Everything but the Xbox One X. Xbox One X? I'm not sure how you call it
4:52
PS4 will work in here. Other consoles will work in here just fine. The fleece-lined tablet pouch
4:58
Full-size keyboard pocket. We saw that right next to the Xbox itself
5:03
Headphones holder. Trolley strap. Lifetime warranty. So, if in five years you're out and there's, like, a big cut across this or one of the straps breaks, Mobile Edge got you covered
5:15
They got a lifetime warranty on this thing. Now, it is pretty hefty
5:19
It is 16 inches by 20 inches by 9 inches. And I'm completely empty
5:25
The backpack weighs 5 pounds. So, with all this in here, even with just the Xbox in here, I can tell you it's kind of heavy
5:33
But, what a nice way to carry all of this gear without having to worry about, oh, did I get everything
5:39
Did I forget the power cord? Or, you know, I'm afraid I might have lost that adapter on the transit or something
5:45
So, having all of this in one place is just an absolute win. My daughter really, really loves this thing
5:51
And you can see the handle here actually has a reinforced metal buckle part on it
5:58
So, you can definitely pick this up this way even though it's going to be pretty heavy
6:02
So, really, the thing to talk about is the price. And it's kind of spendy, you know
6:07
All in all, it is an expensive investment. But, it's to keep all your expensive gear in tip-top shape
6:14
So, you can travel the world or maybe just down the street without ever having to worry about anything falling or breaking or getting chipped or scuffed or damaged
6:23
You don't want any of that, right? So, let's talk about the price
6:27
But, before we get to the price, let me ask if you can subscribe to my channel
6:31
It's just a little red button on the lower right, a click or a tap, and boom, you're subscribed to my channel
6:37
Really appreciate that. And if you are looking for a gaming backpack, which presumably you are, leave a comment and tell me what kind of gaming system do you have and how much space do you need
6:46
And most importantly, how do you carry it all around right now? If you're just putting it in a regular backpack without padding, yikes, that might be a little risky
6:55
Alright, this beautiful heavy-duty backpack designed specifically for gamers is from Mobile Edge
7:03
It's the Core Gaming Backpack and it is $129.99 at mobileedge.com. Now, you might hear that price and you might say, holy moly, that is a lot of coin for something to carry my Xbox around
7:18
But, let's face it, if your Xbox falls out when you're halfway down the road, how much is that going to cost you to fix, right
7:25
And how much heartache are you going to go through? So, this is a smart investment in all of your gear and your whole setup
7:33
And once you get the hang of it, there's a lot of compartments, but once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to unpack and pack things super fast and know you always have everything and everything has its little pocket
7:43
And it'll just make your life a breeze. So, I gotta give it back to my daughter
7:48
She is ready to head out. So, I hope this was helpful and useful and I hope to catch you in my next video
7:57
Be safe. Be well. And I'll see you in the next video. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye. Bye
