    There was lag remote playing on ps5 and xbox cloud gaming. This device is good for mobile call of duty or for mobile gaming. Ithink would work good on iphone 15pro as u can natively play the game.

    Great handheld for on the go casual gaming, or offline gaming. I get quite noticeable lag when I try to play online, definitely do not want to play Call of Duty with it.

    Amazing portable assistant to play the PlayStation 5 on the go….or in bed. Lag times aren’t bad with internet connection but the hardware is solid.

    I bought this for my son and he definitely loves the games you can play for free with the 30 day trial from backbone. It does lag when playing online and I have the top speed from Cox cable, which is the gigablast. We dont lag on our PS5's but when he plays the backbone he does. The games that you can play have great graphics and I would recommend to get it.

    Felt well built and worked well under optimal connection situations, however lag caused me to return it. Nothing wrong with the controller but the connection to PlayStation even on my iPhone 14+ with 300mb internet still experienced lag

    I really liked it aside from the occasional lag. I just didn't use it as much as I thought I would. I still prefer the feel of a controller in my hand but I love the mobility and functionality of the backbone.

    This is actually quite enjoyable depending on the quality of your connection. I would still be careful of games that require tight timing. There can still be some noticeable lag.

    It’s awesome that you can connect to your system at home. But it tends to lag and if u you don’t have the greatest internet or Wi-Fi at home it’s not very good
