Product Information

The other cases are laptop rollers which double up as hand luggage. These ‘Lite Biz’ cases look stunning, those are not the cheapest, though do have that wow-factor. Samsonite are famous for their hard-wearing materials, which are easy to wipe clean. What many people don’t know is that they use recycled plastics. Look out for cases made of Recyclex, or even old plastic bottles. I’m certain you will agree that recycling and style go hand-in-hand with these soft-shell cases. They are more defined and deep than on the firelite and perhaps give the suitcase a little more feminine flair (but maybe it is just me?).

Of course, the super-light cases covered in the section above are also hard-shell. You find this out the first time you put pressure on them. They have gone for a bit of a shell look, with lines flowing up vertically from the bottom and curving outwards. Each model also has a range of stand-out colors to help you look great while traveling and find your case easily when it shoots out on the carousel. The material has a brushed metal kind of look with a little reflective shine to add to the glamor of the case.That is the overview – the next three sections look at the best value ranges for super-light, hard and soft-shell cases.

You can use their ultra-light spinners as laptop cases and use the bigger laptop cases as hand luggage. When you compare a S’Cure DLX with the original, it is easy to see they are from the same family of designs.

These have textured shells which immediately stand out from all the regular cases at an airport carousel. You can see my detailed review here. Most of the features on these two models are very similar, so first I want to dive into the sizes and weights.

Both have a 20 inch and 28 inch model. The Firelite then has the 30 inch as the largest, while the Cosmolite has a 32 inch. Suitcase Weight S’Cure have a new, upgraded version called ‘S’Cure DLX,’ the other hard-shell at value prices is the ‘Flux’ range.

While you don't get the same capacity as a 2-wheel suitcase, 4-wheel cases are increasingly popular. This range is contemporary – though keeps all the quality extras that fans of Samsonite cases are used to.The inside of these cases is different to the other lightweight ‘Curv’ options. You get a double panel zip compartment, plus a mesh cover for the main compartment.
