Customer Ratings & Reviews

So far I like this product quite a bit. The controls feel nice and it connects to my phone easily. It is ergonomic. I use it to play on Xbox Game Pass and it really adds some flexibility for gaming on the go or if the family is using the TV. I feel it is pretty expensive so I hope it lasts. I did experience a couple of instances of left joystick drift which caused me some concern. It went away and Backbone has a one year warranty if it comes back. I baby this thing and keep it in a case. I hope this was just a fluke but time will tell. Overall I recommend it - if it lasts.

Love this for gaming on the go if I don't bring my switch I bring this super easy to travel with! only downside is I have to take off my case for it to be put on but other than that its a great product

Very easy to use, the durability when I’ve dropped it on hardwood floor has been good. I love the fact that you can have it charging while playing the games on it. Makes gaming so much more convenient.

Works flawless on my iphone 13 . The buttons feel nice and your hands dont crap.

Awesome to use. Plug and play style and compact gaming. Would recommend for any gamer on the go.

Gaming on thr go from your console!!! Pure Genius!

Easy to use and works as advertised! I recommended to a couple friends. They both purchased and feel the same way! Also, this is a brand that cares about their customers!

Honestly idk what Sony is thinking… this device is all you need for remote play from PS5. 2 steps forward 1 step back is what it looks like. Rant over. Great device for the price, comes bundled with some decent freebies (discord nitro etc). Feels great in the hand with quality face buttons, triggers and analog sticks. The backbone software was also quite useful, feature a game launcher, social chat rooms and voice chat rooms. Tested with Diablo immortal, retro emulators, and PS5 remote play. The only thing missing is software support to map onscreen buttons to the controller for games that don’t support controller input.

All good things to say about this device, just 2 things that really bother me, one is the clicky buttons. When im playing on my bed in at night i notice that buttons are really loud and i feel its a bit distracting, 2nd is the always on backbone button, this very bright button in a dark room is not ideal, that i known of theres no way to turn off or lower the brightness of it. However that being said this device has a lot going for it and as an added bonus they give you 3 months free for discord nitro and a month of xbox gamepass for free. What a time to be alive.

Purchased this for our grandson for Christmas and his smile said it all. Great little controller to remote play. I ended up buying one for myself and take it everywhere.

Love it. Works great. Using it with a lightning wire extender to my older ipad pro for a big screen on the go. Taking full advantage of xbox cloud gaming. Highly Recommend. Mine did come with iphone 13 adapter included.

Fantastic product and easy to hook up to your phone . This is endless fun when you are on the go or home . I recommend 200 percent

This is a fun way to play the switch. User friendly for younger kids

I absolutely love this device. For how much a game this is beyond perfect for gaming on the go!!! I recommend it for all gamers

Great for travel and those long lectures, wish it had a universal set up

The backbone was not easy to setup. I think it had a bug or something. Purchased for my son for Christmas and he wasn’t able to use it until May. This was after countless emails back and forth to backbone support. You got to a certain spot in the setup and it froze. There was no way around it. Once we got it up and running my son loved it. We travel frequently and he uses it when we are on the road.

It's dope it's like a Nintendo switch! except it's not nintendo it's backbone XD lol but it's definitely a good alternative to have on the go and it's cheap and slightly better than nintendo because of the variety of games that the Xbox cloud gaming comes with

Works perfect for cloud gaming on my phone. Makes it easy for my lazy days.

If you like gaming and don’t have time for console or pc gaming this isn’t a bad option. Great for road trips or long car rides. Took a minute to get used to but once you do it’s fun.

The Backbone for Xbox one works tremendously well, especially if your traveling and want to play Xbox games on your phone
