Great Little Handheld on the Run!! It works perfectly for what it is. Giving your phone (or tablet) the ability to act as a Gaming Console with a fully functional controller. You can pay for access to use your controller on other devices or just plug and play with your PS4/5 or iPhone. It’s an extremely fast installation and recognition by the phone. The only thing to keep an eye out for is your phone must be updated to the latest firmware to use the Backbone One.

Works seamlessly and feels like a real ps5 controller. The set up is kind of like a switch. Also uses hepatic feedback to almost give the illusion of rumble pack.

Shipping was fast and arriving on time. The gaming device is great quality, very sturdy. My child loves it turns his phone in to a gaming console basically! Definitely worth the purchase!! Love it

Very snappy feels just like im playing on the ps5 and i like being able to play ios games with it as well.

Nice to look at, easy to set up, and doesn't drain your battery too bad. Works with a wide variety of games as well.

If you want on the go gaming, look no further than this here. Very easy to connect and is compatible with the PSN app.

Didn’t want to review this until I had a few months to see if I’m into it. I AM!! I can’t say enough great things about this thing!! I got my steam, Xbox, and ps5 games…ALL ABLE TO PLAY on my iPhone!!!! Been playing Diablo 4 while taking care of my wife while she recovers from surgery!! I’ve been playing it when I’m out and bored, in a diff room than my ps5 (like when I have to pretend I’m into a movie on the lifetime channel!)

Got this on sale for $70 but would even buy for retail $100 after having it. Allows me to remote play games on ps5 and other platforms. Been avoiding playing games in Apple store but now playing one game that i used with the free apple game subscription. Comfortable in hand but hand still gets tired after a while. Only complaint is have to remove phone case when i want to use it

Turns your iPhone into a portable PlayStation. Love being able to play anywhere on the go. Wish there wasn’t a yearly charge tho.

This really made my mobile gaming experience so much better. I look forward to finding a place with WiFi and free time so can just jump on the backbone and play some of my ps5 games while on the go. This thing is awesome. It fits well with my iPhone 13pro max.

Its really great for controllers if you want to stream to your mobile device it definetly has the feel of quality. Some caveats it doesnt work with alot of thick cases so if your the type to lock your phone in an otterbox your gonna have to take it out everytime. Additionally it doesnt work well with the iphone camera bump on the pro models so they had to put in a little rubber piece to account for it. Additionally it comes with a subscription plan not to play with the controller but it locks some stuff behind a 30 dollar a year plan but very specific use cases like using the controller as an external on ipad and their own proprietary homescreen.

Great buy, my brother in law really likes it. The toggles are smooth, it fits good in your hands, you can charge your phone while using it with an iphone charger. Great for playing on the go definitely recommend. You get a year of xbox one but you need to add a card so they can charge you after that year. Still not an issue because there are a lot of free games

This is the best controller for iphone for both on device gamenplay and remote ps5 gamenplay. Works well with iphone 14 pro max

This was a gift for my son but he liked it I would buy again

Love how smooth the buttons are and how sleek is the design of the backbone and the color too.

I bought this to play on the couch while my console stays in my room. It does that great but I find myself missing the adaptive triggers and the subtle controller vibrations. Harder to get immersed as the screen is small but still great for games like Call Of Duty and Fortnite. Thumbsticks are basically the same as on the switch for scale. Although its got problems, the clicky buttons and the straightforward setup makes it easy to come back to.

So far it’s been great. Good quality, very minimal (almost none) input lag, great for cloud/remote gaming.

Well built controller. Love the UI and how streamlined it makes gaming on the go. Only real drawback is a subscription fee but even that is worth it in my opinion. I tried the Razer Kishi prior to this and the back one is easily an upgrade. It simply offers an experience that isn’t matched by Razer yet. I also had compatibility issues with the kishi with playing COD mobile, not with the backbone though! Would definitely buy again.

This is one of the best buys that I have ever made. Not only is it convenient for the Apple Arcade games which nearly all are compatible. As long as my PS5 is hooked up to the Wi-Fi, no matter where i am if i have an internet connection I can access it remotely with my backbone. Absolutely Fantastic. Smooth and streamlined, it just doesn’t get much better.

Gaming on the go! Being able to travel and game on car ride, plane and/or bus making the time go fast!
