    Cute but has flaws
    I use this little Osprey bag often for day hikes. I think it’s really cute, a beautiful color, and it’s made of good quality materials so it’s held up really well in the time I’ve had it. The shoulder strap is really comfortable, I don’t even need to switch shoulders while using it for extended hours.That being said, I think there are a few missed opportunities and things I realize I would have liked in a day pack that don’t exist on this one. I’m not sure what the front mesh pocket is supposed to be for. The description made me think it would hold a phone, but I don’t know of any phone now-a-days that would actually fit in it. My iPhone 14 Pro certainly won’t. It’s too thin even for my set of keys. I use it instead to hold chapstick and a single tissue. Also, my 1.5L Camelbak fits great in the main compartment, however there isn’t any accessibility for the tube part that you drink from. So I have to keep the bag partially unzipped at the top to allow the tube to come out, and because there’s no way to clip it on or secure it to the strap, I tuck the drinking end into the mesh pocket, which it often flops out of. And lastly, I wish it had a small zippered compartment on the back where I could easily store my keys, or something small that I may need quick access to. Although the large compartment has a small zippered compartment inside, it becomes pretty unusable if I have my Camelbak in there, which takes up the entire small space. And all I’m left with is the small outer front zippered pocket, which is usually so packed with everything else I need, that my keys can easily slide to the bottom, meaning I have to remove everything bit by bit to search for them.I still like the bag, and I think it’s great for really simple hikes, but if you’re planning to bring a water bladder, this probably isn’t the bag for you.

      This sling is rated at 6L in size, but seems to have more room inside the main compartment than many slings rated at 8L. Solid zippers and comfortable strap. Easily holds Digital SLR with lens, sunglasses, cell phone, keys and a handful of small stuff usually living in a jacket or pants pocket. The design works well worn like a traditional sling, which is across your back. It also works well and is compact enough to sit comfortably at your side, under your arm. This is a plus if you’re in crowded, touristy areas where you want to be security conscious.

      This is a perfect pack for a short hike, day out at a fair, that kind of thing. It is very small - only 6L, which is about 3/4 the volume of a grocery store plastic bag. It is just big enough to hold my 24oz water bottle, a couple of ziploc bags of snacks, a rolled-up bucket hat, a small sunscreen and bug repellent, a pocket-sized pack of kleenex, hand sanitizer, wipes, chapstick, a card case-style wallet, and my keys (it has a key holder). It does not have a separate water bottle pocket, but it has a slip pocket and a zipper pocket in the main compartment and a smaller front compartment. So it won't do if you need to pack a big lunch or if you want to carry a sweatshirt or something, but it's perfect for just the basics for a few hours out. It's also comfortable to carry and the strap is very adjustable; it fits me comfortably as a medium-sized woman. I'm super happy with it and highly recommend it.

      I have a G4Free sling and I love it, but it's too small to hold my 10.4" tablet. Thus, I decided to try the Osprey. It's a very high quality sling bag. It has plenty of space for my needs. The material is much thicker and tougher than the G4Free.

      The G4Free on the other hand has an outside mesh pocket, which I miss on the Osprey. However, the front pocket works just fine for a small water bottle.

      The Daylite is very high quality and appears that it will hold up for the long haul. It's very comfy and has some padding on the inside. It's very water resistant and you won't have to worry about getting you gear wet in rain. I'd be cautious in a downpour, however.

      This pack isn't designed to carry a tablet, but for my needs when I occasionally carry my tablet it works great. It fits with the case on too. This essentially acts as my daily use and dad bag (kid supplies - snacks, hand wipes, etc.).

      It's a great little bag and I highly recommend it.

      I love this bag. I ordered it in this color as well as the Deep Purple. It’s a great bag for every day use, hikes, carrying around snacks, juice boxes for kids, room for phones, a small water bottle, wallet, keys. Easy over the shoulder for putting on/taking things out. The quality is top notch, durable, something I’ve come to expect from this brand. Love their products. I do wish it had a mesh side pocket for easy access to a water bottle. Two separate compartments for your items, see pics. Also I removed one star because I found the image online a bit different than what I received. I was expecting a softer more muted sea foam blue/green color but it’s so bright it’s looks neon. Kept it anyway but like the deep purple color better. You won’t be disappointed!

      Great little bag. Pros: small, has 2 deep pockets, one with pockets. It's versatile, as I can wear it over my shoulder, in the front, and on my back. I prefer over my back and pushing it to the front when I need my wallet. Even though the zippers aren't just to one side, it is still easy to enter the bag and get the quick things I need, like my wallet, without having to take it off. It can hold a surprising amount of stuff: wallet, shopping bags, hiking first aid kit, 16 oz water bottle, emergency items (swiss army knife, whistles, fire starter, etc), my large stash of keys, my galaxy 23 ultra phone, small snacks, my kindle and Kobo libra 2, doggy bags, medication, gum, flashlight, and other assorted things. Even though it is loaded, it doesn't feel heavy when wearing it at all. I am very happy with this purchase. CONS: these are my own preference, not the fault of the bag as I saw what it was in the photos, so I didn't ding stars for it. The main strap, while comfortable, is a little thick and I wish it was a little thinner and smaller and extended a little further. I wish there was an additional small pocket in the front that wasn't so deep, to put small things that I need more frequently like my gum or medication. And maybe an easy way to hang or secure a small lightweight jacket. Other than this, the bag is perfect in every way and I am very pleased with this purchase.

      Have long been a fan of other Osprey products. This one did not disappoint. I’m a fan of the color purple so it caught my eye. The compartments inside are well thought out and keep all my items organized and readily accessible. I like that it’s Crossbody and that I can wear it either in the front or on my back. I commute using public transit so it’s been super helpful to have a little spot across the top where I can attach my retractable cord holding my transit pass and work ID. I’ve had it for several months and use it daily and it’s holding up to that very well. Would absolutely buy it again. Well made and well worth the money.

      I bought this for my wife to use as a purse since she likes to have her hands free. Actually the second one I've purchased as she wore the first one out over the course of about 24 months. She quite likes it and uses it as her everyday carry-all. She suggests the smaller outside pocket could use a 2-way zipper, but overall she loves it.
