For the first time, Samsung’s updated laptop lineup has a newer, larger size: the 16-inch Galaxy Book 3 Ultra. This means that if you’re thinking of buying it, you’ll need to invest in a 16-inch laptop bag. After all, the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra is a bulky device, at 16.5mm thick and 3.9 pounds in weight, so it’ll be easier to drop.
Obviously, standard 13-inch and 15-inch laptop bags won’t fit your new laptop snugly given the dimensions contain the Galaxy Book 3 Ultra at 14 inches long, so we did a little digging and found nine of the best 16-inch laptop cases on the market. No matter your budget, these cases can help protect your new laptop from common damage like scratches and bumps, and still leave room for other things like laptops, documents, or chargers and cables. Some of our picks offer padded carrying handles or shoulder straps so you can separate your laptop from your bag or other equipment while traveling.

We hope you found the case that fits your Galaxy Book 3 Ultra. If you want the best case, we suggest you choose Nacuwa 16 inch laptop sleeve. It has a hard cover and plenty of pouches inside for storing accessories and documents. For something more traditional and minimalist, we suggest the One Life 16-inch Laptop Bag since it’s more affordable and still has padded corners and is water-resistant. Of course, the other options are also great for padded zippers and carry handles. You may also want to consider a laptop backpack.
