A backpack can easily cost hundreds of dollars, but sometimes, you don’t want anything fancy. In that case, you can find a quality, attractive backpack for under $50 to meet all of your needs. These tend to have simple designs with less organizational pockets than you might find on a more expensive model. Some backpacks under $50 that have laptop compartments can fit a computer up to 17”. Others have a USB port and room for a battery pack for charging devices on the go. Not all backpacks under $50 are durable enough, though, to withstand frequent travel. Padded straps are still standard on these less expensive backpacks, but additional comfort features like a padded back or a sternum strap may not be part of the design.
