I have a satchel, a messenger bag, a bike bag, a backpack, a briefcase, a camera case, and some nice cargo pants.

The satchel is probably the best. Easy to carry, easy to retrieve stuff and looks snazzy. But you do have to put up with people who think it is weird for you to have one

The messenger bag is a little bit more socially acceptable, and tends to look pretty snazzy as well. It is bigger allowing you to carry more, but it is also big enough that it starts to get in the way and if you are carrying electronics in it, you have to worry about liquids spilling on it, or dropping it, or something in your bag jostling into just right to break it.

The backpack has a lot of the same issues, but it is more convinient to carry on your back as it doesn't get in the way as much, but that does make it harder to use things in it.

I enjoy using the bike bag, but off the bike it is basically just a messenger bag. It is just easier to snap on the bike than traveling with it on you all the time.

The briefcase is heavy and annoying to carry, but they look the best and protect your electronics the best.

A camera bag works, but is my least favorite. For the size of the bag it is very bulky and swings more than the messenger bag or the satchel which is uncomfortable and increases the risk of hitting something and damaging the camera if you are not paying attention.

Nice cargo pants are also a favourite. Lots of pockets, convinent, organizable, and you don't have to carry anything. The cons though are your pants get heavier and can cause your belt to get uncomfortable if there is too much heavy stuff in them. You may also forget something small in the pockets and put something in the wash without noticing.

Utility kilts look awesome, but too expensive so never tried them.
