If I rememeber correctly you can do that with the default camera app via the settings menu. HEVC is available.

Awesome review, straight to the point and shows everything you want to see in a video. How has the bag held up for you?

I like it, but I really wish I had another slash pocket that was the full width and it looks like it is a crinkly kind of loud material

How has the bag held up without the bumpers?

stupid expensive pretentious backpacks

I bought 16L del Dia collection tasra from this brand i was kinda disappointed that the straps cannot tuck in anymore and it opens like a regular backpack instead of suitcase style . I still love the colours and definitely would still use it 😊

I’ve been on a search for the perfect edc for work for about 3yrs. I’ve been through so many bags always looking for the perfect balance of functionality with nice looking aesthetics. The Sympl Commuter is as close to perfect as I’ve found. Had it since launch and haven’t tried or rotated back to any of my daily drivers. Love- Tech caddie: provides enough quick access to mostly use items. Self standing: qol for a bag to stand in its own Shoulder straps: straps are fantastic and a lot of well thought out bags fall short. Materials: perfect blend of weather resistance and durability. Interior could use an upgrade but for the price point it’s still a deal. The fact that this bag can walk into any boardroom and still tame the outdoors is a game changer. Like- Separate laptop access: not a necessity for me but definitely a plus Side handle: most under rated feature on any edc bag. Grab handles: near perfect grab handles. Plush and durable. Kind of a sleeper: this is definitely a self righteous ploy but I like not running with the herd. Ehhh - The branding: the commuter has the least amount of advertising out of all of their backpacks but even less would be better. Just picked up the weekender v2 and it’s definitely toned down as well now.

I recently got the Aer Ultra Travel Pack 3 for my extended travels starting in late October, and it has been fantastic! After six weeks in Europe and now two weeks in Thailand, I can confidently say it’s amazing. The bag’s sleek, stylish look and durable sailcloth fabric have been great for travel, especially in the rain. I paired it with the Aer Go Pack 2, which I roll up for everyday carry-super handy! I also got the travel belt buckle, which has been very useful, though it’s unfortunate it costs extra. While the front compartment can feel tight when the bag is fully packed, I’ve optimized my packing to make it work. I sometimes worried the bag wouldn’t fit in the overhead bins on flights, but it’s always fit perfectly so far. I do wish the D-ring wasn’t over the water bottle pocket, but overall, the bag feels premium and comfortable for long walks. The laptop sleeve is excellent and keeps my 14” MacBook Pro secure. As a longtime fan of Aer, I’m thrilled to finally travel long-term with one of their bags-it’s a game-changer!

Hello Desmond, how is this bag holding up after a year? I want to get it for the work but I've read a lot of not so kind reviews.!

Only thing I wish they would do now is sell Forge magma back plate separately. Or with cash clip/apple back option

Does this fit under airplane seat

Problem with the Ekster wallet is that you have to spend a lot of money to get features added that you need. Better products out there.

SO helpful! I don’t understand why Ekster website makes it so vague. Without your video, I was going to order a money clip for my husband too but I think the rubber band works fine without buying it…he doesn’t carry cash often. If the website had made it clear what the rubber band thing does, I’d have purchased right away and not waited for months trying to decide should I buy it. lol

The color looks almost brown. Is that just the video/lighting or would you agree that it leans that way?

A l voiced Terrible video Misleading information 😢.!!!

Did you get the 20” or the 21”? If you got the 21” any issues traveling with it as a carry on? I’m worried about the size, thanks!

Very helpful, thank you!

Great and succinct review that is also comprehensive. Thanks!

Как ведёт себя материал в -30 градусов? Дизайн очень хороший

Would love a 2l version

I currently use a northface backpack, I'd say my stuff is roughly 44lbs, would that bag last with that kind of heavy load

I just wish it had a top handle… but overall happy with it. Gonna be taking it to japan/korea soon!

i absolutely love the look and features of this sling, i just only wish the padded sleeve could fit an 11” iPad pro! i actually emailed them to ask them if they would release a larger version for this reason, and they even said they do have it planned but it wouldn’t come until second half of 2025 at the earliest

Great review. Love the AER products and may actually pick this one up as well. Wish it had the orange interior.

Check bicycle gold deck the most fav for me

I just purchased and used this pack and this video showed me some of the features I didn't know existed. Thanks.

I just purchased an old version of this bag for $99 on Sierra! 😍Have you had any issues using this as a personal item on European airlines like Vueling?

I just received it but I might already return it because the quick release buckle seems to be very fragile.

Monos is just more aesthetically pleasing

Great review! I honestly like the older version and the shiny finish so much better though 🥲 this one just looks like any old dull backpack. Hopefully I can find the old version second hand or something

Pretty sure just about all laminates started as "sailcloth." As for X-Pac, AER itself calls it "sailcloth" on its site. Tortuga's "SHELL200 sailcloth" is in reality just EcoPak EPX200, which they confirmed to me after many emails. So yeah, don't think "sailcloth" itself means anything other than that was what the fabric was developed for.

"I don't like when companies do this, but I get it." I don't. Pass. They aren't getting my money. Cheap kunts.

Would I use any of these to hold my driver's license?

Great bag. But one main gripe I have is the sticky waterproof zippers. Not sure if this is just with the ultra edition or if it's also a problem on the regular and xpac

could use one of those shoulder straps/ eyelets to put a shoulder strap on?

Thanks for the video! Have you ever been asked/told by a flight attendant to check this bag?

I like the compression straps on the side

I wish I found the perfect pack by now but there is still so much room to grow in the backpack market. After researching about 50 bags from all known brands in this solar system I can say that the one I need is not among them. Looking for a bag in 40-45L range with load adjuster, hip belt, compression straps, 16inch laptop case, no dividers so I can carry a tripod, water bottle holder on the outside and no billion different small useless pockets. All of the above below 3,6lbs. BTW thanks for the review.

I completely agree about the need to cut off a pound of weight especially when many larger capacity bags come in lighter weights. The overabundance of pockets and compression straps makes the pack feel over designed. I oftentimes forget about some of the pockets. I own the X-Pac small version and it'd be the perfect bag if they removed some things. I hate the water bottle pocket but it holds my tripod well. I've used the bag on many air and road trips plus office work. It does so many things well that it's hard to give up. I used to own the Tech Pack and loved it, but it's so tight you can't even store a regular food to-go box in it.

is it 28L ? i thought aer travel pack was 35L ?

I've solo'd a lot in my 20s and 30s but also enjoyed travelling with kindreds or even strangers. These days, I prefer adventuring with my dog 🤣 - top list! I also prefer to travel with my chosen humans because I appreciate having people there to share the experiences and witness a period of my life - then get to go home and relate with them still. Used to be that nobody can relate when I get home with my advenstories. I recommend going solo at least once, if possible 😁 it's a great feeling knowing you can.

Really love the look of this bag but for worldwide one bag travel I think its just too heavy

I tried using the X-Pac version as my personal item for work + laptop + compact photo gear along with a rollaboard bag on several business trips, domestic and international, over the last 18 months. It's so overbuilt that I find I can't put it underseat on aircraft without taking all the footspace. The thing is simply heavy for its capacity. And while you'd think that would mean robust, somehow I acquired a pretty large slice on the front panel, perhaps from bad karma when I snuck it into the overhead bin. I have reverted to my 10 year old Tom Bihn dyneema ripstop Tri-Star with more capacity (33 litres) for less weight (2lb 12oz) and because of fewer layers of padding, less bulk too.

May I ask how tall you are? Trying to look at your wear section and seeing if this would look massive on me.

I am leaning towards the parlament one as I've never had one of these because I'm worried about the metal casing being uncomfortable in the front pocket of a pair of jeans compared to a leather casing. What do you think?

I wish you would review the new Tramora Pro carry on, there seems to be no written or video reviews on this product anywhere on KZbin?

Beautiful review! Great pacing, script, and focus on the bag. Other channels need to take a page from your book.

Great video! Does the bag stand up on it's own?

Looks Nice

So I’m trying to get my first pair in white but a common problem I see is the width. Everyone videos mentions the same issue.
