The Osprey Daylite vs Daylite Plus: Let’s Keep It Simple
Choosing between the Daylite and Daylite Plus is as simple as deciding how much you room need for packing those essential items.
Which Backpack is Better?
Choose the Osprey Daylite if… You want an ultralight backpack for hiking, travel and daily carry or if you prefer the fit of a smaller backpack. The Osprey Daylite offers easy, care-free carry of just the essentials. 13 liters is enough to carry items like a water bottle, phone, wallet, snacks, a light jacket and a tablet or laptop up to 13-inches.
Choose the Osprey Daylite Plus if… You want a lightweight backpack for hiking, travel and daily carry but need the extra protection of a padded laptop sleeve and could use extra pockets for organization. The 20-liters puts you into daypack territory, not too small but not too big and bulky.

Patagonia Atom 8L sling pack vs Osprey Daylite Sling 6L pack.
Great idea, thanks for suggestion!
REI Ruckpack 18 vs 28
A big book about birds is what got me. Thank you for the video, it really helped me make a choice!
Glad it was helpful! Thanks for taking the time to watch.
I died when I heard the crow! 😂
Love this type of comparison! So clear! Thanks
Daylight 13L hits the sweet spot for ultra lightweight airplane travel and it fits under the seat with room to spare.
I have both. I would only purchase the "plus" in the future. Unpacked both are very similar in size. The plus allows for more when needed, the upgrades are really nice, and the panel on the front comes in really handy. The main difference in size is how much you pack in the bag. If you packed both with the same items, you would not really notice the Plus is larger. The items will have more room in the plus as shown in the video. The panel on the plus allows for a jacket to be put in and when damp does not get the main compartment items wet. The zippered pocket on the front can hold a cell phone or wallet and you do not need to open the main compartment to access.
Great insights. Thank you!
Very helpful, thank you.
You sure? If you wanna pack it flat inside a suitcase- which model would feel like it takes less space/thickness within the carry-on suitace?
Excellent I appreciate the extra video work put in to do side-by-side views. Also, minimal editorializing, some folks just talk too much. Thx!
Much appreciated! Thanks for watching!
Great review, thank you!
Thank you for the kind words! Glad you enjoyed the video.
thanks!
I bought both. Osprey would be geniuses if could factor in a slip pocket on the back of the pack like the Deuter Speedlite 25.
Torn between the Daylite plus and the Gregory Rhune 20
Great review!
Thank you!
very helpful, thanks
Great vid. Helped me make my mind up. One thing I never see backpack reviewers show, is how they hang on the back when empty. Some buckle or press into your lumbar in an annoying way when lightly loaded. Would be great to see that demo'd.
That's a great idea! These two packs are so lightweight that they feel like air when you have them on empty haha
Daylite regular is my preferred, but I’m also super minimal and I like less. I use it for extended day-hiking.
In addition to the dims, it would be awesome to include the bag weight and load capacities if available. Thanks and keep up the great work!
Noted! This kind of feedback is very appreciated. Thanks for taking the time to watch!
Daylite plus vs Gregory Nano 20
Osprey Parsec 26 vs. Tropos vs. Nebular, it is all unisex but I would like to see how it fits to women. Thank you!
Great suggestions. We'll look into it!
Perfect review - now I know the Daylight Plus is best for me!
Awesome! Glad it helped
What is the little interior buckle above the laptop sleeve used for?
It's to hook up a hydration bladder for hiking. You can see it in action here 01:20
Osprey hikelite
I found the DayLite to be an ideal travel carry-on type bag, and a great day pack. The Plus would have been too big and bulky for the light bag I needed, so the smaller one was the right one for me.
Thanks for sharing your experience! We agree, the size of the Daylite is a sweet spot for those situations where you don’t want a bulky backpack but a sling bag would be too small.
Nothing on the top but a bucket and a mop, and an illustrated book about birds.
Haha that song was on my mind when she said that too!
Good comparison--thanks! One question--with the compression straps on the sides, it'd be possible to make the DL Plus a little smaller if need be, right? I like having that option. Thanks!
Yes, absolutely. The compression straps control the depth of the pack on light packing days.
Love this video. I bought the plus
Thank you! Glad you found it helpful
Can both be used as personal bag during a flight that fits under the seat?
You should check with your specific airline for the personal item size requirements but the Osprey Daylite usually falls under the limit. However, both backpacks are squishy and you should have no issue fitting them under an airline seat if you avoid overpacking them.
would airlines accept bringing a farpoint 40l + the daylite?
Depends on the airline's carry-on and personal item bag requirements. We recommend always checking with the airline for maximum bag dimensions before your flight because every airline is different.
great video
Thanks!
Osprey should have given the larger bag it’s own name. They gave in to the temptation to capitalize on the popularity of the Daylite name. Unfortunately, they’re making the confusion even worse by offering the Daylite, the Daylite plus, the Daylite 26-2, and the Daylite sling. I love my gen1 Daylite but they need to stop the insanity.
Agreed! There are so many variations of the Daylite now it's hard to keep up.
It's too bad I can't find the color option from this video
These colors were on sale at the time the video was made 😅 Pretty sure Osprey was phasing them out.
I wish I found your channel earlier.
Great review and it convinced me that I don't like either of them.
Lol fair enough!
It doesn't matter
I'm not leaving house without big book about birds.
Book about birds
Can any of them stand up alone?
No, neither of them have flat bottoms 😭
Is there any similar backpack that has a flat bottom?@@Backpackies
Is it a suspended laptop pocket?
Yes both Daylites have a suspended laptop pocket of about a 1/4 inch
@@Backpackies thank you!
Why would they even put that pocket there is it can’t fit a normal bike helmet or a normal pair of sneakers. All they has to do was make it just a little more expandable. That was a massive design mistake and makes me want to pass this pack up for something with those features but designed properly.
That's a good point. It seems like the Daylite Plus was designed more for hiking than commuting or carrying bulky items but expanding the front stash pocket would have been an easy win.
That pocket is still quite useful for quick acces for smaller items.
You're putting the Hydraulics in the wrong place... A designated sleeve on the back of the bag is used for this
The newest Daylite models got rid of the back panel pocket. The hydration sleeves are inside the main compartment now with a hydration port as shown in the video. But yes, the older models had a hydration sleeve on the outside.
Who carries a big book about birds? Bird watchers leave that $hit at home just fyi.
Absolutely, the oversized bird book was all in good fun! Bird watchers know best. 😉
