Should I buy a case or bag with my S4?
Posted on: 04.10.2013 by Cicely Gottfried
I want to know if it would be worth it buying a case or bag for the S4, I can't seem to find one that I feel comfortable with, like the weight, the size, the price, etc. I just want to know if it is a good idea to buy like a flight case/coffin or bag for the S4 for when I travel. Since I can't find one that fits me, does anybody got any recommendations?
I would apreciate a link to the website which it was bought and I would perfer US dollars but you can send me it in a different currency.

The major flaw about having such a spacious bag is that it gets very heavy. I'm always afraid the straps might break, but until now nothing has happened. Keep in mind though, that having controller AND laptop in one bag can really suck if you have to carry it all the way.
The Zomo bag is my first choice for travelling with my DJ gear, although for long journeys like flights I would also consider a hard case. Have you tried some trolleys? They might still be accepted as hand luggage and you wouldn't have to carry that much on your shoulders.
Perfect Recommendation, not very heavy and very spacious. Although, I have always wondered if it would be safe to put it in an Oakley kitchen sink backpack. I will look forward to buying the Zomo bag. I am wondering if the Oakley Kitchen Sink Backpack would be good for Traveling as well.

I fly around for gigs, and was using an s4. After I got off my last flight last evening , it didnt work. I was always using a softer case, being gentle, always keeping it around as a carry on. It still happens. If you want to be safe, get a flight case.

05.10.2013		Maybe I'll buy a backpack for the S4, I don't know, a flight case seems too much to buy and I am only going to be using it at home or when i go to the stockli room (room where we have our parties at school) and mix there, but that is all, only time I believe it will need protection is when i go to miami in march. But I don't know, it's probably not worth buying a flight case, but it might be usefull, but I am only carrying my S4 to and from my house at school, I believe I'll only need a bag for that. At the airport that bag is never leaving my sight. But is it still good to buy a flight case only for a stand and all the organization?
Cicely Gottfried
05.10.2013		I am taking his advice but I am probably going to be packing it in my bag or if not I will take it as carry on if it's not too big or heavy. I don't want to buy an extremely heavy one, but I want one that only fits the S4 and has space for connections and cables.

04.10.2013		There are a number of S4 flight case options available. I'd trust Karlos' opinion that a flight case is your best bet if you'll be traveling.
