Timbuk2 868-2-7139 Review by JFrank20

I was really glad I got the medium sized bag because anything smaller wouldn't fit my phone. I have the huge droid x, fyi. I use the front little pocket for my school ID--we need it for everything so I used to lose it all the time. Not anymore! Also, I wear the bag lower down because I like to use the side strap on my Timbuk2 bag for biking; unlike the model, I'm a little more full-chested. It's comfortable either way but I prefer it lower.

Pros:
Good size: not huge and awkward
super easy access
great for commuting by bike
don't have to dig in the bag for my phone and ID!
attaches securely

Cons:
No space for anything else (maybe a little bit of money or a CC but nothing else)
Open sides make it potentially permeable to rain, unlike the larger messenger bag

Overall, I enjoy the bag and find it very useful. My dream bag would have a spot for ALL my easy access needs (phone, keys, ID, CC) but I guess I have to take what I can get!

I love my Timbuk2 Command bag but I wanted something extra I could easily access my phone without reaching for my bag so I decided to see what Timbuk2 offers. While they have a lot of cell cases, they are all pretty much iPhone only which is a little frustrating but the medium 3way case fits my (caseless) Sprint EVO 3D perfectly. The width is tight but maybe room for something a little wider if need be. My phone actually sinks into the case a little bit and you need to use your finger tips to get it out but that is okay. The case feels solid and the liner in the case is super soft. The last thing I want to point out is that with the black and grey Command bag is a slightly different shade of black and grey from the 3way case, I could care less about that but I could see that some people out there might be bothered by it. I highly recommend this case for larger Android phones, pretty sure it'll fit most of them.

This thing LOOKS huge. But it's really flat, will only accommodate thin devices. It will not accept a 2nd generation iPod touch with a bumper on, not without some serious shoving anyway, and it's a tight squeeze with the bumper off. I can shove an LG Optimus into it with a bumper, if I use a lot of oomph. But, as I said, it looks huge because it's got a lot of extra space in the height dimension. The iPod can vanish far enough down into that it's hard to get back out because the pouch is actually six inches deep. But it's only got about 3/8" space height-wise; that is, your device can only fit comfortably if it's a about 3/8" thick. This would not hold a new iPhone with a bumper on, but it just might hold the new iPhone by itself. I'm going to be checking out the return policy on this thing, and I don't recommend that anyone buy it unless someone here has specifically said that it fits your phone well. (I did, however, read some people saying that it fit the old iPhones "perfectly." I think that means "with absolutely no room to spare.")
