Pros
- I also have the Osprey Daylite Plus which is a lovely backpack for lighter days but I wouldn’t recommend it for daily heavy work days. If all I’m bringing is my laptop and lunch then it’s fine, but still not as comfortable as the Gregory.
- I love my daylite plus. The side pouches for water bottles are ok, a little awkward to reach unless you swing the pack to your front. Don't really need them though because it can hold a bladder. Good amount of room for a day hike if you...
- The front pouch? Gosh you can stuff in so many things there. It's also additional space. Basically any item that won't fit in the main compartment or you want quick access to. ... It's useful
- Use for work every day. Use it for travel as well. That front pouch is so useful.
- Option #1 looks the best and looks legit, based on the diamond pattern on the material, the zipper pull style, and water bottle pockets. I have one in the same color.
Cons
- Parent context: I have the Osprey Daylite plus, and I also have the Gregory Rhune 22L. The Gregory is amazing for work, it has a laptop sleeve and it can comfortably carry a lot of weight on my back because the shoulder straps are padded...
- The Osprey I don’t use for work because it’s not as comfortable with my laptop, but it’s nice for trips outside of work and going out for the day. It can’t carry as much as I’d thought. Even though it’s 20L, the Gregory feels twice the s...
- Even if option #2 is legit, avoid it. It looks like the water bottle pockets use the water bottle pocket mesh from the old Farpoint which is worse than the standard daylite pockets.
- Option #3 looks legit but the zipper pulls are missing.
- I have an Osprey Daylite Plus (which I gave to my wife) and a bag that we use on the stroller.

Parent context: I have the Osprey Daylite plus, and I also have the Gregory Rhune 22L. The Gregory is amazing for work, it has a laptop sleeve and it can comfortably carry a lot of weight on my back because the shoulder straps are padded really well. The Osprey I don’t use for work because it’s not as comfortable with my laptop, but it’s nice for trips outside of work and going out for the day. It can’t carry … Reply: I think the Daylite Plus wouldn’t be robust enough for all this. It’s a lovely backpack and I use mine a lot, but whenever I have to carry a lot I go with a different bag.
The Osprey I don’t use for work because it’s not as comfortable with my laptop, but it’s nice for trips outside of work and going out for the day. It can’t carry as much as I’d thought. Even though it’s 20L, the Gregory feels twice the size at 22L and I think that’s because the Osprey has the large front pocket which accounts for a lot of the space. However the front pocket is great for days out!

I love my daylite plus. The side pouches for water bottles are ok, a little awkward to reach unless you swing the pack to your front. Don't really need them though because it can hold a bladder. Good amount of room for a day hike if you aren't carrying camping supplies.

Long story short: I ended up with a nice Osprey DayLite Plus in beautiful Night shift blue! Everything and more I brought to the store fit in, I figured I actually never go on hikes, but need to commute twice a week, so it is a perfect commuting backpack it seems.
