Customer Ratings & Reviews

Feels good, buttons and triggers are good, joysticks feel nice. Easy pair with phone.

Love playing my game on these really easy to setup and use. The bottom are Decent and the joy sticks is ok

Really nice device - but the Backbone paid service is silly. This should be a one-time charge, not a service for something so basic. It's a shame Backbone is greedy - the hardware is nice but within a year there will be a dozen competitors priced 1/2 this or less, and there will be alternatives for the software that don't require a subscription. That being said, great to use, just don't pay for the service.

I’ve bought this this three times but I still love it. Specially certain buttons just die completely. Like my left two triggers. By downward D-pad and it constantly causes phone to screenshot. I would try the pro but I’d feel crazy paying that much.

Love this controller. I only bought it to play Fortnite on my iPhone. Works great!

Great product. Does everything the base model does plus adds Playstation Remote Play support which is amazing.

I bought this cause i was starting AIT and didnt want to bother with having a console taking up space. im able to play whenever and wherever. I dont have to bother setting up anything just plug and play.

Love the backbone, was skeptical at first because ive tried other similar items, but thlhe backbone feels like an actual console controller. Definitely recommend.

It’s great I love it I use it everyday 24 hours during the day

Works as advertised. I use it to play warzone. No noticeable lag and very easy to set up

its compact and travels well and easily...i can play anywhere i go and there is zero delay with gaming input....

Great controller option for remote play and android gaming. Half the price of PS Portal. $70 price point would be ideal

I was a little skeptical about the backbone at first because I was not sure how it would work but I can say I'm very happy with how that works. I like that I can play my PS5 when I'm not even sitting in front of it and playing on a high-tech phone like I do, the Z fold series, the quality is even better because of the big screen and the great picture. The connection is very quick and so is the response time and handling

Great device, as long as your phone can hang. Very sturdy. You don’t necessarily need a subscription but to unlock the full potential you do.

Pros: Can charge phone while playing. Lightweight. Dedicated app for game libraries across multiple gaming platforms. Small controller that should fit most hands BUT didn’t feel uncomfortable in my giant hands. Cons: Way too expensive. Thumb sticks feel very cheap and a step behind even jocon sticks. Controller itself feels cheap itself and the price makes it feel even worse. While it can charge your phone while playing, more than likely it will just keep your phone at the charge it was when you plugged it in, it just can’t keep up charging while gaming unfortunately. No feedback. No vibration or anything with the controller, it’s annoying for those that want to feel something while gaming. The app doesn’t do the best job organizing your games or “remembering” your game library and the fact that you’re FORCED into a trail subscription to use the app is outrageous. Overall the controller feels cheap, doesn’t accomplish much besides being a gamepad for your phone and feels way overpriced. Honestly this controller feels like it should be $20 or maybe $30. It gets the job done but you won’t feel like you got your money worth.

Easy to carry around and works very good. A wireless option would be great though

Just what my son wanted. He uses it for playing video games but is also able to use it when editing some of his movies. He said this makes it easier.

Great device for mobile gaming! Been using it a bunch and there's no input lag

Best thing for me because im an over the road trucker who likes to play video games on my downtime. It is definitely worth the buy for on the go gaming. It’s small and compact easy enough to use and brings me joy to be able to play video games with my kiddos while im away. Totally love this product best Christmas present i bought myself this year i would definitely suggest it to others who enjoy on the go gaming its quick and easy enough set up.

My daughter absolutely loved this. Can’t be thankful enough to the Best Buy staff helping this momma with this informative purchase
