Built-in security features, or a suitcase-style opening
Is the bag mainly for city daily carry in crowded places, or as the main bag for a whole trip?
These serve different roles more than they compete directly — one is a daily-carry bag with specific anti-theft construction, the other a full trip's main travel backpack with a suitcase-style opening.

A tick marks the better answer on that line only. Counting ticks does not decide the page — the two verdicts below do, because these products answer different questions.
Take the Bobby Hero as a daily-carry companion bag in cities with real pickpocketing risk.
Take the Farpoint as the main bag for the trip itself.
