Customer Ratings & Reviews

excellent controller for iPhone USB C. No delays or lags when playing all games.

Didn’t like depends what ur using it for like cod Mobile or streaming steam/ Xbox games , nvida GeForce the sticks are to small there isn’t enough like deadzone in the joysticks especially cause you cant edit the deadzones it feels very inaccurate just connect ur ps5/Xbox controller to ur phone

Works perfectly, and I couldn't ask for any more. Best gaming purchase I've made in a while.

This is probably the best on the go gaming controller because i can play a lot that I have on my ps4 and i can play this anywhere, its just wow but over all this gaming controller is awesome.

Normally I would use a clip with a Xbox controller but this gives it more of a Switch or handheld PC feel. I've used it both with an iPhone and an Android and it works seamlessly on both.

My son really enjoys using this item with his phone. Works great.

Great accessory for my phone. Links directly to my ps5 so I can play remotely from anywhere as long as there is service or wifi. Would recommend for any person who wants to play their system on the go.

Grandson loves it playing with it constantly great

I bought this for my 11yr old who had gotten into mobil gmaing. He enjoys it

Awesome product… gave it as a gift to my kid…he loves it

Runs really smoothly & works great w/ a google pixel 9XL

Works perfectly on iPhone 15 pro, I use it to play on GamePass it is very comfortable and you can charge your device while playing. Also work fine with CoD Mobile, RE8 and RE4 for iOS. It works with case installed

Overall, the Backbone is great for gaming on the go. It's hard to find time to play games at home with a tight schedule, so being able to play within my commute is great. Although, one complaint I do have which I am currently looking into are the thumbsticks. I do not recommend using the Backbone for FPS games or any game that heavily relies on accurate aim. Playing around with deadzones within games has provided some fix, but definitely would not recommend in that regard. It seems very similar to the Switch's thumbsticks, but ideally, the Backbone should go for more of an Xbox/Playstation feel. If later additions do so, easily 10/10 product.

Great product, shipping was fast, item arrived with no issues, my wife is able to remote play her playstation, steam, and play her phone games with it, buttons feel nice and it fits her new phone very snug.

Good game for on the go! Christmas gift for 7year old and 9 year old

It is comfortable and easy to use but it broke too easy seems to be a normal issue where something inside breaks and one half of the controller is unusable

Got this to play COD Mobile, nice piece of hardware, but if you're already used to using the phone screen for gameplay, there a bit of a learning curve adjusting to the backbone. I'm not a huge console gamer, prefer PC for FPS games.

For he price the backbone is the best in its class!

Pros on IPhone 16: Light, quality build with buttons and joysticks that function very responsively. Easy to play RPGs, maybe some difficulty with action games but mostly because of playing on a smaller phone screen. It fits with variety of phone cases (but not all). Can use WiFi or your phones data plan to remote play. Cons: might have to take your case off to fit it but it’s expandable to a point. Have to learn the buttons because some will send you out of the app to the Home Screen mid play. It needs a touch screen function button to assist because on PS remote play you have to press the screen and it gets wonky.

I was able to use my iphone 15 pro max with this with no issues. I even was able to keep the case on my phone. I have the apple clear case that released at launch of thr iphone 15. I used both cloud gaming and remote play and I had a great time playing elden ring. No comfort issues wkrh controller grip. Only giving this 4 star tboigh becuse rhe backbone software is not worth the yearly cost considering what it does. Its nice to have all your games in one place and also benefit from voice chat within the backbone platform but for me, i have not friends on backbone.
