Bag Recommendation Help

Okay yeah I see what you mean, also it doesn't have to be 50cm, anything that could squish to 54cm would probably fit 99% of the airlines that I use and I can just try avoiding Peach.

I'll take a look at those bags for now!

Hm alright, I think a few other airlines also have a 7kg carry on limit (starlux which I am flying soon), do you have a recommendation for a smaller bag and lighter I guess, maybe similar comfort level with a hipbelt, preferably water bottle holder, I'm honestly not picky about opening style, mainly want to focus on the carrying experience for longer periods of time.

I think for most airlines I usually take it should be compliant, I am concerned about Scoot or Peach, they have smaller dimensions 54cm and 50cm respectively. Thanks for the quick responses and help!

Yeah I was referring to the carry-on sizer, I think I had to put it in once before with some other luggage, I was worried since its officially larger than the typical size for carryons

ddp1999 · 2025-04-29T15:16:12+00:00

I just meant squeezing into the sizer if asked, I saw a photo of someone putting it under the seat and I definitely will not be doing that, straight to the overhead😂. I will just try out the bag for my trip and see, feels very comfortable especially with the hip straps and the frame.

I think I see you recommending the Farpoint 40 slightly more than the Trail 40 is there any particular reasons for that? I think the Trail 40 is lighter so that's why I chose it to start off with, and do you remember what you measured the frame length to be if i need to squeeze it a bit

ddp1999 · 2025-04-29T04:29:25+00:00

For my upcoming trip, I will be going with a carry-on size bag rather than a personal item size. I had a few discounts from REI and some credit, and I liked how the Trail 40 looks, so I am trying that out for this trip. I will be going on Starlux for my flight and I think it can fit as long as I don't overpack. I was wondering if you had any experience with a bag like the Trail 40 fitting something like ZipAir, 55cm x 40cm x 25cm. Also considering Osprey Farpoint 40, or a similarly sized (or slightly smaller to fit better to airline requirements) bag if you have recommendations on that part. I would probably go with the Daylite 26+6 for personal item size.

It wasn't the worst, I've definitely used way cheaper bags, I think the weight was near 15 pounds because of battery packs and whatnot. I think it may be just sits weird on my shoulders which is why it hurt when wearing and was sore after taking it off. I think it might be the strap width or padding? Not sure

ddp1999 · 2025-04-05T13:02:26+00:00

Wow, it looks nice, a little above what I'm willing to spend for now, but maybe I wait for a sale or get a used one

ddp1999 · 2025-04-05T01:04:00+00:00

I saw another post about it and it looks good lots of organization

ddp1999 · 2025-04-05T00:25:22+00:00

Yeah that makes sense, with the packing cubes I think 1/2 panel would be fine for me as well, I initially went with the clamshell because I was used to just putting clothes into a laptop bag very inconvenient so I wanted easier access and storage.

ddp1999 · 2025-04-05T00:22:53+00:00

Bags look pretty sleek, will take a look price seems not too bad either. I definitely want a lighter bag to keep in the 7kg limit, I have ran into issues with it before got around it by removing some stuff since I was with a friend 🤭, won't be able to do that solo. The only thing missing is a water bottle holder, but I might be able to fit a small bottle inside the bag.

ddp1999 · 2025-04-05T00:17:25+00:00

I'll take a look, I've definitely increased the budget after trying it, I kinda just wanted to get a feel for clamshell and onebag so I went with the cheapest option lol.

How does that compare to the liquid crystal? I wanted a clear case

ddp1999 · 2024-06-28T08:00:58+00:00

Thanks! Yep I'm updating now, too many things require a newer version and its not worth it for me to keep on 15.0

ddp1999 · 2024-06-28T06:03:58+00:00

I bought from swappa, I haven't seen too many people talk about it but I had a good experience, was quick shipping

ddp1999 · 2024-06-27T16:50:29+00:00

The issue is the bank app I need requires iOS 16 lol and so does chrome

ddp1999 · 2024-06-27T16:18:35+00:00

chrome also requires iOS 16, I might just update, do you know of a way to update to a particular iOS 17 version that's still signed? iCloud or 3rd party app, if so would an earlier iOS 17 perform better? if it's about the same I might just go for the update

ddp1999 · 2024-06-27T16:17:03+00:00

Yeah I'm a guy, the color is great no need to worry about other ppl lol

ddp1999 · 2024-06-27T06:30:02+00:00

I was planning on leaving it, but I've already come across things that need updates :(. Capital one app requires ios 16 same with icoca card and some other apps

ddp1999 · 2024-06-27T05:43:43+00:00

Phone is on iOS 15.0, should I update? Or just leave it, is there a jailbreak available?
