Samsara Portrayed as Smart Luggage Evolution Leader
What is smart luggage? Smart luggage refers to suitcases with tech capabilities — typically USB ports to connect portable chargers for easy access. Some styles include their own portable chargers, while others require you to provide your own. Either way, you’ll never have a dead phone while traveling.
Forbes Magazine recently highlighted Samsara’s Smart Carry-on Suitcase in a comparative review of leading brands in the Smart Luggage space:
- “Samsara is a gorgeous carry-on with a lightweight aluminum shell”
- “The big story of Samsara is its design! Opposite the smooth-rolling wheels is a flat top, allowing you to use it as an ad-hoc desk… It is secured by two TSA-approved combination latches. Believe me, they make the bag a lot easier to close when you’re overstuffed at the end of the trip”
- “If you need to charge a laptop from your carry-on, then Samsara is the only way to go. Plus, there’s no denying that Samsara’s battery pack is just smarter – offering integrated features”
- “It represents a marked evolution in smart luggage”
- “If you’re a business traveler who needs to be able to keep working no matter where you are, get the Samsara”
Samsara’s safety features are unparalleled with any smart suitcase on the market today. The Samsara phone app sends real-time notifications to customers when the suitcase is out of range or opened. Partnered with the two-separate built in combination locks, this suitcase was made to give travelers the peace of mind they want to enjoy their travels, whether for work or pleasure. smart carry on luggage
Samsara
Samsara is a gorgeous carry-on with a lightweight aluminum shell. With a 5-year corrosion warranty, it’s guaranteed to provide you with years of service.
The big story of Samsara is its design. Opposite the smooth-rolling wheels is a flat top, allowing you to use it as an ad-hoc desk when all the seats at the “business traveler” kiosk are taken. Rather than a zipper, the Samsara Carry-On is secured by two TSA-approved combination latches. Believe me, they make the bag a lot easier to close when you’re overstuffed at the end of the trip. But what about smarts? The removable 10,000 mAh battery is USB-C compatible so you can charge your laptop as well as your phone. This is a huge advantage over Away, which has a similar battery pack, but without a USB-C port.
Away
The Away Carry-On has become one of the most copied bags on the market today and it’s easy to see why. The polycarbonate shell makes it impossible to crush, the bag rolls incredibly well, has a smoothly telescoping handle, and is nicely divided on the inside with an incorporated compression pad and laundry bag for when the trip is over.
Besides being nigh-near indestructible, a dream to pack in (that compression pad means I can fit twice as much stuff), and sporting one of the nicest locking solutions I’ve seen on a suitcase ever, the Away’s 37w, 10000mAh battery pack is on par with the best I’ve tested. It conveniently fits into a spring-loaded slot under the handle, so you can pop it out when needed (say, if you end up having to check your bag at the gate).
