Compression halves bulk and changes nothing about weight, which matters because on Indian carriers with a 7 kg cabin limit weight is usually the binding constraint.

Avoid it if: Anyone relying on it as Indian cabin baggage -- it is marginal on size and will exceed 7 kg.
Who the Peak Design Compression Packing Cube Medium is for
