The controller has a black sleek design and has a great quality. It is easy to hold and easy to install. I travel quite often so this controller is very convenient to travel with easy to store and pull from your bag and just plug it your phone where ever you go. No need to carry any extra cables or anything just the controller itself is enough. It connects directly to the lightning port so setup is very easy and the controller is very user friendly. Because it connected through the lightning port, it doesn't need battery which makes it even better. I tested it over an hour with heavy gaming and the results were very satisfying. After holding it almost an hour my hands were still comfortable. I didn't feel any discomfort. All the buttons are easy to reach and clicks are very sensitive and responsive. And if you are a Xbox player you won't be having difficulties with the align of the buttons. Overall, after using a week I'm very satisficed with the controller. My mobile gaming just got an upgrade and I'm loving it. I highly recommend it to game lovers.

Okay. So, I think I would like this more if I had a phone with a larger screen. Thats not the Backbone’s fault so let me focus on the BB. Tgis does its job well. Ill start with button feel. I am an XBox gamer mostly. I love the style of the Xbox controller with the offset sticks. What I DONT like about the XBox controller is the clicky buttons and clicky DPad. And this is where the Duel Sense PS5 controller comes in, the buttons here on the BB feel more like the PS, quiet. ABXY has a slight click but they are quiet clicks. The DPad is a soft quiet press just like the PS5’s. I like that softer press. And the shoulder buttons are like the PS’s Duel Sense too. So the BB gets a win for buttons feeling like Playstation and a win for the sticks being offset like the XBox controller. Because of the compactness of the BB, the buttons to the sticks are right above and below one another; much like the Switch joycon. So admittedly, you hands may cramp a bit after extended play. And the sticks are also about the size of the joycon sticks, small. But its suppose to be compact so I get it. I used streaming Gamepass with this and I must say, after about 4 hours trying the BB out, I had ZERO latency and the gameplay was surprisingly smooth, no frame drops or nothing. I do have good internet so that is a factor. So I like this thing, I really do. If you got to game on the go, this is probably the best compact option. I looked into the Razer Kishi and I think the BB has the edge. I got this for today, BlackFriday at a discount; its normally 100 bucks but I got it for $70. I think 70 is a fair price. I think 100 is just too mich and I would have been upset if I spent $100. So guys this is a go if you get a sale, but unless you just absolutely have to play games on your phone, dknt pay the $100. For what this does at $70. I can give it a B+. The cramped hands lowers that score for me.
