Why is there a USB cable in the backpack?

In modern city life, most people use a variety of gadgets: smartphones, laptops and tablets. We use them not only at home, but also at school, work and even while walking.

Many people are familiar with the situation when, at the most inopportune moment, your phone runs out of charge, and you urgently need to make a call or open a card. To prevent this problem, a new accessory was invented - a backpack with a USB port. Let's take a closer look at why it is needed.

Why is this functionality needed?

A backpack with built-in USB is a completely new, innovative accessory model with which you can not only conveniently and securely carry your gadgets, but also, if necessary, charge them on the go.

How does he work?

The system for using it is quite simple and does not have any special difficulties. In addition to the backpack itself, your arsenal should also have a power bank or, more simply put, a portable charger.

Inside the backpack there is a special pocket or compartment for a charger. In the same pocket there is a wire with a USB output, one end of which remains inside, and the other goes out through a special hole.. Thus, you need to put the charger in your pocket and connect it to the wire.

Connect the second end of the cord to the phone: it will be located outside the backpack. This is very convenient, because many people now carry their phone exclusively in their hands or jacket pockets.

Important! The hole through which the cable comes out is always sealed in modern models. Do not be afraid that moisture will get into the backpack through it and wet the contents.

It is not necessary to take the wire out. It can also be used to charge large gadgets that are located inside the backpack. A short cable from a power bank does not always cope well with this task.

Pros and cons of a USB cable in a backpack

The backpack model with a wire is a very convenient thing. Among the biggest advantages are the following:

• wide range of prices. The cost of such an accessory varies from 2 thousand to 8 thousand rubles. Most of the models do not exceed the price of 3 thousand rubles;
• backpack volume – 16–35 liters. It will fit not only a laptop, but also other necessary things;
• the ability to charge gadgets both inside and outside;
• ergonomic shape;
• impact resistance. Deforming such a backpack is usually quite difficult;
• moisture resistance of both the backpack itself and the cable;
• it opens in different positions, so it is very convenient to put and take things out of it;
• good weight distribution, so your back and shoulders don’t get tired;
• Some models are also equipped with a wire for audio playback.

In addition to the advantages, there are several disadvantages of a USB cable in a backpack (for some, these disadvantages can also be advantages):

1. The kit does not include a charger, so you will have to purchase it separately;
2. Since the backpack has a solid shape, in crowded places it can be uncomfortable for both you and others. Therefore, always remove it from your shoulders carefully, but do not damage the wire;
3. It is not so easy to unfasten such a model on the go: usually the zipper is hidden so that a thief cannot get to the contents.
