I don't know why but I've usually had great luck with my Sony electronics. To the point where you'd assume I'm a fanboy (I probably am).

I've got a handme down selection of hifi equipment from the 80s, my atrac walkman and mp3 walkman from the 00s, a laptop from 09, tv from 13, Bluetooth headphones from 18. All still working.

Their phones have been hit and miss but no worse than any other I've owned I guess and they still give you an SD card slot and headphone jack so until there is an alternative I will stick with them

Maybe a Jack Wolfskin backpack.

​

I can't speak for any of their current lineup, but I have one of their older backpacks, bought in 2008. It's seen me through 8 years of college, lugging around 20~kg of laptops, books & groceries daily. It was regularily stuffed to bulging point, has seen a fair chunk of Europe and was just generally abused.

​

All the zippers, buckles, straps and mesh pouches are still intact and working. The fabric is a bit threadbare but it still works. I've relegated it to be my climbing gear bag since I've got a Kriega backpack even though the Kriega isn't as nice quality but it's way more comfortable on the motorcycle.
