    Best phone controller!!

    Got this as a gift for my fiance and he loves it ! I think it’s better than the backbone, especially since you don’t need to pay any extra for subscriptions and it’s connects to your phone via Bluetooth instead of by lighting or usb. Fits the iPhone 16 pro max pretty snug ! It does’t feel like it’s gonna go anywhere and the controller itself feels so good, it’s very good quality!!

    Great phone controller

    This is better than the backbone , wider thumbsticks and great triggers, what i do not like is the thing that you need to connect it via bluetooth and can suffer from lag input

    They failed me I bought 2

    I bought 2 around when they first came out advocated for Scuf on my reddit pages. Only for both of them to lag and stick drift later down the line. I emailed them and got no reply. I Switched back to backbone honestly, after they hit me back asking me to sign up to receive emails on new products! Consumers are getting smart stop putting out anything.
