Got me playing videogames again
Got me hooked to cod mobile. Just not too crazy about the app. When you try to access some games through the backbone app, some games like pub g ask you to sibscride to backbones premium app and theres no way to bypass this unless you agree. But you just have to access the game through the gamea respective app and not the backbone app. Other than that, its dope. Use it on my s24 ultra while im at work

Playstation on the go
This thing is awesome. I’m able to play my PS five on the go anywhere I’m at as long as I have a Wi-Fi or cellular connection. Just gotta leave it in standby mode play this thing all the time the buttons aren’t the best but it’s better than not playing. It’s hard to play first person shooter, but it’s great to play sports games Not saying that you you can’t play first person shooter but it’s just tough maybe better for younger people I was able to get this for $75 on sale in store. Not sure the price now but definitely would buy again tried to link it to my Xbox, but I believe you need a separate version of the control would definitely buy again
