    It's a nice thought but it's too small for games like 2k that require more skill and because the timing will be terrible regardless of good internet. Shooter games are great with this. Other games are decent.

    Not worth 100 bucks . any type of shooter game is unplayable with this device. You can get an xbox controller for half the price almost and it will work 10x better

    The only reason I took a star off because I could not keep my case on my phone on while using controller. I had to take it off and it was a pain. Other than that I was able to stream games from my pc using my phone and imagine it would be fun with mobile gaming.

    Very creative to the creator of these backbone, I’m a struggling mom and solo parent of two minors whose Christmas wish is PS 4 or PS 5. Having a tight budget I have to tell them that it’s hard for Santa to get their wish. I accidentally saw this in BestBuy and instant grab it. Thanks a lot for this.

    The device was very heavy, but I did not like the subscription based service that I had to pay to unlock all features

    Good for gaming on the go how ever having a subscription that cost half as much as the hardware is absurd.

    My son wanted this to stream/play remotely on his PS5. Does not do a very good job of that, very laggy and and kept timing out. If you want for other gaming on your phone, I thin kyou would be happy with it.

    I should have done more research into this product. I thought it was something like a gameboy that i could download and play the games with this as a remote without needing to use the playstion. Yet you do need the playstation so while you play this nobody can use your system to play there game. If your an only child or single then this is probably for you.

    Great product, but needs some minor improvements. The buttons stick after heavy use. And there's no way to fix it because backbone doesn't want anyone to fix them. They don't sell any parts and or have any kind of repair for them.
