Targus CitySmart 39.6 cm (15.6") Briefcase Black, Grey

Product Overview

AI-generated summary

For **£32.86 ex‑VAT**, the Targus CitySmart 15.6" briefcase is the kind of budget work bag that’s actually worth considering if you want something **simple, neat, and daily-commuter friendly** rather than a “protect everything in a fall” case. Targus does tend to get the basics right—good layout for a laptop sleeve/organiser space, decent padding for normal carry, and materials that don’t feel flimsy straight out of the box. If you’re commuting by car/train/office-to-office and you’re mainly worried about **scratches and light knocks**, this will do the job without you paying premium pricing.

That said, I wouldn’t buy it if you regularly chuck your bag about, travel by air a lot, or want **serious impact protection**. At this price point, you’re trading down on ruggedness and “gear friendliness” (water resistance, structure, and protective padding) compared with higher-end Targus lines or thicker, more purpose-built laptop cases. **Who it suits:** office workers, consultants, and admin staff with a 15.6" laptop who want a tidy, reliable briefcase. **Who should skip:** anyone with a pricier laptop, a hectic travel schedule, or who needs a hard-shell style of protection.
