    Honestly this is way better than I thought it would be. By far the best iOS controller I have ever owned and I have two steel series nimbus controllers and have used PS4/5 controllers as well. Super well built and very responsive. One of the best parts is the companion app which makes the iPhone feel like a fully fledged console. Ps5 remote play works like a dream. Highly recommended.

    Great product with neat features to screenshot or screen capture your best kill. Works with multiple devices across its platform. Only draw back it cant be used with a case, well technically yes but only select cases. Which you usually cant find available, But other than no complaints.

    Got it for when I was traveling, but ended up using it almost everyday during my free moments outside. Great for apple arcade compatible games and of course any shooters or other controller compatible games.

    This device is OK, I found that charging it can be a bit troublesome sometimes and the functionality of it with the phone works, but for some games it doesn’t

    I am very satisfied with my purchase of the backbone controller! I didn’t expect to make a difference for FPS such as COD on ios but it make a HUGE difference! Best purchase so far. When it comes to streaming games…. It is a bit sensitive, and you will have to tweak that on the games menu, it is bot as straightforward unlike IOs games

    Great product that it works seamlessly right out of box. I haven’t noticed any input lags or glitches. The only improvements I would suggest are lower price point and a more practical way to connect and disconnect it to the iPhone - disconnecting it from my phone feels a bit clumsy and I’m always afraid I might damage / bend the connection prong.

    Button quality is decent, and it feels nice to hold. I just wish I would have waited to get the model I can use without taking off of my case, because taking my case on and off is pain.
