Some Trade Drawbacks
We managed to find out some missing features despite the best efforts of the manufacturer to provide a cheap, qualitative and multi-purpose product like this. Let’s take a look at them:
1. Hidden Pockets
An anti-theft backpack is always expected to have some hidden and secret pockets. They are hidden from others but the owner of the backpack can easily access it. The Pacsafe Vibe 25 anti-theft backpack misses this hidden pocket feature.
2. Glowing Parts
Most of the backpacks these days come with few glowing parts. This makes the backpack and person visible at night or dark times to make the person visible. It helps to prevent accidents in the form of a collision with vehicles. The glow of the backpacks makes it easy to spot a person from far away. The Pacsafe Vibe 25 anti-theft backpack doesn’t glow in the dark.
3. USB Charging Port
An embedded USB charging port in the backpack is the most common thing in the backpacks these days. This feature helps you avoid the hassle of getting your power bank outside of the backpack and charge your device with ease.

4 Luggage Strap
There is no luggage strap in this backpack with which you can attach the backpack to a trolley. It is a common feature in any travel backpack. I don’t understand why the company skipped such important feature. It helps the person to attach the backpack to the handle of the suitcase or trolley.
