Carry On Luggage with Cup Phone Holder and Charger Hard Shell Suitcases with Spinner Wheels,20 Inch Rock Gray

After seeing an influencer youtube video, we decided to give this a try, as I truly hate dealing with clamshell cases. They end up on the floor of hotel rooms and I dash my feet on them, they are difficult to close and have other issues. But this Mixi model will hold just as much {really!} is easy to pack and won’t be in the way in a hotel room. We recently ued it to fly to NY, spend a week there, took the QM2 to Southampton {with some formal wear}, spent a week in England and another In Scotland, with my wife using only this bag and a personal item. Fits well into the overhead on our several flights. Well made, great materials and sturdy. Good wheels that were OK on rough streets although it is also not hard to carry The avocado color is fun and easy to identify. Fits well on British trains. The fun cupholder and handle hooks gained admiring eyes from others. You will need good compression bags for a long trip like ours, but we just loved the versatility and how compact this bag is. The single zipper is very high quality and the locking system is perfect. Done with clamshells! Would give it 6 stars if I could.

I had done a lot of searching for a good carry-on bag and when I bought this, I tested it out in my living room with a cup in the holder to make sure it was good. The main part was making sure the cup holder was good and reliable. The cup in the pic is a Grande cup from Star@#ks and it held up well without any spillage. A Venti cup without the sleeve fits perfect in the holder as well. The video I have shows it going over a small lip in the Atlanta airport with no issues. The USB and USB-C ports work well and below is the power bank I purchased and would recommend because it fits well in the bag and charges the phone quickly. INIU Portable Charger, Slimmest 10000mAh 5V/3A Power Bank. The two tabs at the top of the extended handle designed to hold your phone are ok but you have to balance the phone perfectly and one small bump will make the phone fall but this is not exactly a selling point for me. The outer shell is stronger than usual carry-ons and the wheels are good, especially with 2 wheels for each corner. I rolled this through numerous airports and a couple times, I had to roll it for a few blocks across a road and bricks and it held up well. My old bag was an even split on both sides and this one is just one but the amount of space is the same. It took some getting used to packing everything into one side but it's still very good. I won't check this bag so the locks are not as much of a selling point for me but I like to have them available. The bag has the 4 tabs on the side to lay your bag down in the overhead although the airline I fly makes you lay it flat which defeats the purpose of the tabs but I like having them there for the option. All in all, this is a great bag and I would definitely recommend, especially if you are doing trips between 2-4 nights.

This will likely be my new go-to carry-on suitcase. I initially bought it because my old one was starting to crack, and this model stood out for its unique side-opening design. I thought it would be more convenient than the typical clamshell layout, and while it does save some space when opening, it’s not quite as perfect in practice as I hoped. The pockets on the opening flap are quite tight, fine for documents or slim items, but not ideal for anything bulkier. The bottom section still has the typical handle rails that make packing and utilizing the space a bit awkward, and the strap layout can be mildly frustrating, as the securing straps and lid-support straps sometimes get in each other’s way. Another thing to note is that this suitcase does not expand, so if you tend to shop while traveling, you’ll want to leave a bit of extra room or plan to carry items separately. That said, the build quality feels solid, the spinner wheels roll smoothly, and the color and finish look fantastic. Despite its quirks, this is a well-made and stylish suitcase that offers a fresh take on the carry-on design.

If you are planning to get this because of the cup holder feature, DONT. Most cups don’t fit, and if they do, if they don’t fit perfectly the holder folds in on itself. Just is a useless feature I don’t use. Same goes for the notches that are supposed to hold your phone. I have an iPhone 15 and the notches are too far apart to hold it. The basic function of the suitcase is great!! The trunk style is awesome and holds a LOT, especially for a chronic over-packer like me. The handle is sturdy, the wheels move smoothly, it’s easy to carry. The lock is super simple and nice, a mechanism I use a lot, especially when I have to check my bag. That being said, it has gotten scuffed up easily. I have the yellow one, and have only checked it twice. The first time it was checked it came back with MAJOR scuffing unfortunately. Still would recommend for its basic functions, but don’t expect anything amazing from the little features.

My ancient carry on soft side bag broke on my last trip, so I've spent countless hours reviewing and searching for the best replacement. The biggest complaint about luggage is the zippers break, and that's especially bad for hard shells. I also didn't like the design of the hardshells that zip in the middle with no access pocket on the outside like most soft sides have. That means that you have to expose all your stuff with 2 heavy sides to manage to open it. And if you have the expansion zipper system, that's even more problematic because it puts extra stress on the zippers. No wonder they break. Pros: THIS case has solved that zipper problem and it offers a lot of great features too. The cup holder is fantastic, very sturdy, stable, and it frees up my hands when need be. The wheels roll like butter in every direction. The extension telescoping handle is very sturdy too, no problems extending or retracting it. Don't use it to pick up your bag and you'll be fine. The bag has 2 handles top and side to make picking it up easy. The TSA locking system works beautifully and is well designed. The pop out bag holders and phone/ipad holder up by the handle is great, although I have no idea how much weight they can hold. That information would have been helpful in the instructions but alas, there weren't any. I love the deep box design so that it opens like a "lid" so all your stuff doesn't get exposed or fall out, and that "lid" is very light weight, with lightly padded pockets inside for organizing. Perfect to hold things you need easy access to. The shell itself is very sturdy, probably as close to unbreakable as can be. I read that magic erasers remove scuff marks easily, but I haven't needed to test that yet. As far as how much I can pack in it, it is a bit small but with compression cubes and a deep box design, I don't expect to have any trouble once I figure out how much fits and how to organize it. In fact I like this luggage so much I'm considering getting the 24" size for extended trips. Cons: The phone charger system has easy access with a cover to protect it so that's good. BUT no instructions were included in how to use it which is frustrating. The battery pack isn't included, so I bought a separate pack. The anker battery pack I chose didn't come with a charger so I had to go back and order one of those before I can even test it! wth? sigh. Because of that I haven't had a chance to use or test the phone charger thingy. I guess it works, if I can figure out how to connect everything. The luggage didn't come with instructions in how to use it. There are wires inside with 2 different plugs, but it's not clear to me how it all connects. Wishes: MIXI - please include instructions on how to use the battery pack and tell us how much weight the bag/phone holder on the handle can hold safely. That's ridiculous to not include that. It would be great if you bundled the luggage with the items we'll need too to make it easy. This kind of frustration is not the experience you want your customers to have, am I right? Also, I'm now searching for a duffle underseat stackable bag to fit on top of this one. It would have been great if MIXI offered them as a bundle or at least as an option designed to fit this luggage. So far I've tried 5 different underseat options from different brands, and am not delighted with any of them. Bottom line is, I LOVE THIS LUGGAGE! I've had a great time showing it off to friends, and everyone wants one too. :-) I have not had the opportunity to test it in the real world on a trip yet, but I anticipate no problems when I do.

So I just bought this suit case less then a month ago for vacation. Super excited about it. It rolled great. Thought it was the best until I locked it. I had set the lock at home knew the lock code it worked fine when testing it. So we are on vacation I locked a few valuables in my suit case with my lock code I knew. I could not get it open. It would not open for anything. Tried everything under the sun to get it open and it would not work. Had to call the lock smith. He could not get it open either. Finally he cut the lock to get it open. I had tried to call the customer number for Maxi but they would not answer my calls. Bottom line don’t buy this suit case if you plan on using the lock. Waisted a good part of our vacation day to try to get it open. The lock smith said he could feel our code was right but it still couldn’t get it open. Think twice before buying!!

I love everything about this bag. I looked at basically everything on Amazon that had these features I wanted. All the functionalities work perfectly and are sturdy. The bag rolls like it floats and the size is perfect. Why would I say perfect… that’s subjective. Not in the case where it is advertised as a carry-on. Watch careful because most have dimensions that are not actually good for overhead bins. That’s why I had to look through so many. I can tell you this has fit like a dream in every overhead bin I put it in for Delta, American, and Jet Blue. I hope this helps

I really struggled to decide what I wanted in my new carryon! There are so many improvements nowadays. I was really tempted by the new wide handles, but I knew I needed to be able to strap on my puppy carrier and they aren't made for the wide handles yet. :( At least mine wasn't) So.... This one seemed to check off my other wants. Charge port with USB-C, cupholder (although I was skeptical about its durability), extra hooks for bags and stuff. But really what I was after was the trunk style! I had just returned from 10 days traveling to Ireland and Scotland (6 flights!) and was about to embark on 6 more flights stateside to visit kids. It was time to upgrade and this suitcase did not disappoint! My husband was rather annoyed that I didn't want to check my bag. Why have to "lug it around" he said. Well, there was no lugging with this! The wheels rolled so smoothly. My husband commented several times what a smooth 'ride' it was. And he kept taking from me! In fact, he wanted to hang HIS bag on it all the time. And I'm pretty sure he bought me the oversized water on purpose so he could use the cupholder for his coffee! After having to flop open my traditional suitcase on the floor to access anything, being able to simply set this carry on on the dresser and lift the "lid" was so nice! I was able to pack 7 days of clothes and two pairs of shoes, a jacket and my toiletry bag comfortably. No need for expansion! (Which they won't allow a carryon to be expanded anyway.) Even fully packed it wasn't so heavy I couldn't lift it one handed. And in 6 flights, mine was the only buttery yellow that I saw, you couldn't miss it. So you attach a portable battery pack in a small pocket inside the suitcase to use the external ports. Which is fine, just make sure it is fully charged. However, the very last flight (1 in 6!) demanded that I remove the battery at the gate when they were going to put it under the plane. Annoying. However! I was able to get right to it in under 60 seconds because it was so easy to lift the lid and get to it! And I didn't have to take up a bunch of floor space at the gate and expose my entire contents either. This carryon is a keeper. The wheels and handle feel sturdy and smooth. It's a pretty color: cheery but not obnoxious. I can spot it a mile away amongst the sea of suitcases. It was strong enough to support my husband's carry on while rolling. I still feel that the cupholder is the weakest thing on it, but it still functions smoothly, neatly and did it's job. I didn't have to hunt for or share a charging station at the airport. I am happy with this case and am considering getting the full size to check for bigger trips!

This suitcase is awesome! I’ve only used it got 1 trip so can’t comment on durability yet. I love the top-load style, much easier to pack and make better use of space. I fit a full sized keyboard tucked into the side, that would not have worked in a 50/50 set up. Held clothes for 4 nights, CPAP, shoes, snacks, keyboard, and more. The charger ports works as expected and there’s a nice sized pocket inside for your battery pack. Handle is sturdy, comfortable. Rolls nice. The cup holder was very handy. Hooks/device holder are not necessary but can be handy to hang a small item or whatever. Unfortunately, it did not fit in the overhead bin on a small Air Canada plane, it was about a half inch too thick to slide in. Huge hassle since I was boarding in the middle of the pack and discovering I had to gate check blocked traffic in the aisle.

Quite stiff as doesn't expand nor much room to add Heavy when empty

Fantastic Carry-On! The Mixi PC Hardside is a Winner! I absolutely love my Mixi Carry-on PC Hardside luggage! The durable PC exterior handled travel beautifully, keeping my items safe. Inside, the thoughtful organization made packing a breeze. The cup holder is a brilliant addition – so handy for coffee on the go! Best of all, the spinner wheels are incredibly smooth, making airport navigation effortless. This is a stylish, well-built, and highly functional carry-on that made my trip so much easier. Highly recommend!

Features are as described and the colour grey looks so much nicer in reality, like a metallic grey. Big and roomy and the lid stays up when you adjust it into position. The 2 connecting usb wires are attached to the inside of the suitcase and neatly hidden inside a second side pocket which is large enough to hold a power bank (not included). It does not come with a manual so you have to remember or refer back to the website for all the great features included (I almost forgot about the pop-up hooks on the handle for holding your tablet or shopping bags, it’s so well integrated into the handle, like 2 round dots that you press open. The cup holder took a few tries (abit stiff and slow) before it popped up smoothly on the first try. The wheels are smooth and 360. It arrived early, in a couple of days only (even without Prime Membership!) Overall, very happy with this purchase!

Very handy and excellent carry on.
