Hi, I bought 3 Surface, but I need a compact bag with at least one compartment to insert for example accessories as Surface Pen or USB.

what do you recommend?

I just go on amazon and see what catches my fancy :) Personally I use a neoprene sleeve I made from one of those jumbo mousemats, or I use a skytab hardshell which works great and has already saved my ass once.

I got this, but I absolutely hated it!

The whole lot (Surface 3, Type Cover, cable, UK plug, pen, mini mouse) felt heavier in this than in my other heavier, bigger but more protected bag. I think it's to do with the handles... But I give it a credit, as it managed to contain all of the items above (just!).

I returned it to Amazon and ordered this (still waiting to arrive):

Do you not find that the UK plug is just too big to be convenient when putting in a discrete bag like these? Given that the S3 seems to need the big power brick instead of something like a slim phone charger, it would make real sense to design it to have the pins fold away so that it an actually go in a bag instead of being a massive bump that not many bags can actually accommodate without being huge.
