The bag empty weighs almost nothing. And ... I think it looks bigger in the photo (where the man is carrying it), but for a small bag, it sure holds a lot, and very securely. When not in use, I keep my Kindle in it all the time now ... (and the book light as well), and I'm quite sure it will not be damaged in there.
I got the passport case to use as a wallet. I didn't really read the blrub for it ... I just bought the damn thing ... so I was really happily surprised to find that it had battery and sim slots, room for all of my credit cards, my passport (well, I knew it would have a spot for that), driver's lisence .... everything but loose change (and I have a change holder for that ... so not a problem).
The strap is really comfortable. I wear the purse sort of slung across my chest on my right shoulder, and I have not noticed any discomfort (and my back gets sore very easily ...), so even packed with all the items I mentioned, it is not too heavy.
It's just a really nice, well made, stylish bag that is perfect for ebook readers (except for the larger Iliads ... it might not fit those quite as well, but then, I don't have one to experiment with).
