    I got this Backbone One Lightning game controller for my Nephew. He absolutely loved it. It works with his current iPhone. Because he takes lots of trips for his job, he can easily play for hours on the plane. He is thankful for this gift. I'm sure he'll get many long hours of play with this controller.

    Bought this to use while traveling for work. Works great at home with good broadband, not so great when in a hotel with questionable internet…. Would only recommend if you know you’ll have good internet.
