Many smart bags have come and go, and I am yet to be introduced to the ultimate tech bag. Every woman needs a reliable bag that can be their daily companion. In my opinion, such a bag should be my stylish mobile office that is able to keep me connected whilst I am on the go. So when I heard that there was a new smart bag being talked up, I had to find out more.
Inspired by the executive leather Travel Tote, FYB, a London startup, has designed a bag with SMART technology that will make it possible for you to wirelessly charge. With a padded laptop / tablet compartment (15 inch) the luxurious, it also has RFID that will protect your cards. Featuring Bluetooth® connectivity the bag also has a powerful 5000MaH power bank gives you up to 3 full charges! Enough to keep you powered through the day!
My favourite feature is the automatic bio-metric fingerprint lock. It not only lets you open your bag, but it also gives you proximity alerts, so you’ll never lose your Travel Tote again. I am also loving the Qi-certified Wireless charging pocket, that allows you to simply drop your phone into the charging pocket and hey presto your phone will begin to charge.

On their bag the FYB team shared, “We’ve worked tirelessly to design the London SMART handbags to meet the 24hr go getter lifestyle and we know from experience that nothing slows down productivity than running out of battery throughout the day!”
With $108,155 pledged of their $30,000 goal, it seems that not many have been put off by the rather steep price point which ranges from $259 to $115,000 for the exclusive limited edition Midnight City smart bag. With 5 days to go on their Kickstarter campaign, you can fund your on the go bag HERE.
