Customer Ratings & Reviews

Convenient and practical, makes gaming 1000 times easier.

I really liked how easy it was to set up! It is literally plug and play. All you have to do is put your phone in, and any games that have controller support immediately work with a layout that feels natural. The backbone app is incredibly useful as well! It’s exceptionally good at easily putting all your games in one place.

I gave this controller as a Christmas gift to an 18-year-old family member, and the joy on his face said it all. He started using it immediately and has thanked me repeatedly.

Ive had a great experience with the backbone for playstation on my Samsung Galaxy S23 Ultra! Call of duty at work has never been easier! The backbone is easy to carry and easy to pop on and off of my device! Takes a little getting used to the difference in size compared to a regular controller but it is definitely a dream come true for myself.

I bought this as a birthday gift for my husband and he was so thrilled to try it out and he loved it! He is self employed and loves taking it to work when he has down time or even in the car while I am taking the kids into doctor appointments. It really is a neat thing to buy!

Great add on to your phone if your a gamer, would really consider the backbone

This is a great accessory for playing games on the phone. I have the first gen version and it worked great until I upgraded my phone to a USB-C one. The 2nd gen is basically the same product, but it does have some extras (like adapters for different phones and cases), which makes it better than the previous gen. I still believe they could make it more universal, so it could work with more phone cases (so far, the compatible cases list is pretty short).

Very excellent my son love this Product easy pley games on the phone

Great product to take your ps5 on the go. Works perfectly

This will be my second backbone and I love it..this controller is the best of its class

Purchased this controller for remote gameplay while traveling. This has met all expectations! Once i get connected to my PS5, the controller does everything my controller does that is connected to my PS5. The sticks are tight and the buttons are very responsive. I would definitely recommend for any user cosidering the backbone controller.

Its ikay,but it says 8t works on PlayStation remote,but it doesn't. Some games it says it would work it doesn't, my old Xbox 360 controller works better then this . Its feel comfortable to my large man hands . It doesn't feel cheap. The games it does work, work fine. There still not many android or other third party games that support thiss controller. Is it worth 99.00? No, probably 40.00 dollar. Even , Backbone app when log in is really buggy. I feel the app was just slap together, sloppy! Get a cheap Xbox 360 controller and a tablet, you probably be 0lay more games without any trouble. Backbone lies about all the different platforms it supports.

I bought this for my husband as he will be away from home for work and he wanted to play his xbox games but understandably didn't find bringing the big boy feasible. I bought him the backbone for his Android phone (Samsung s24 Ultra) and he is very very pleased with it. It attaches to the phone easily and the buttons are very responsive. He loves how compact it is and easy it will be to take with him without worrying about it taking up too much space. The only thing he mentioned was that my husband wishes he could keep his phone case on while the backbone was being used (he has a thick, heavy duty case due to the nature of his job) but I have heard no other complaints. I will note: like many other mobile devices for xbox/PS5/steam etc there is sometimes a lag (sometimes a consistent mild lag) but that is to be expected at this point for these devices. I'm also sure what internet you are connected to or how strong your data connection with your phone etc as well as the phone itself will affect this aspect more or less depending. Overall, however, I am pleased with my gift purchase :)

Works great for streaming games and playing on emulators

I've seen a lot of ads for this device and decided to give it a try. It's a game changer if you have an Xbox with the cloud gaming service. Works great from the Xbox streaming. Impressed with the quality and it doesn't even need power to use. COD Mobile is very console like with this controller. Would buy again

Works exactly as advertised. Very useful and convenient.

Only one gripe and that's that it doesn't work with the case on, though it claims it does, and no I do not use a bulky case. It might work with some, but not mine. Other than that, it works fine and as advertised.

Perfect for mobile gaming, easy to use, and feels good in hand

I work a bunch and i take it with me for the downtime. It is slightly on the smaller side so having big hands makes it a bit harder to play your favorites. No furled finger gameplay with this. That being said it is the cheaper of its competitors so that put it over for me.

This controller feels great in your hand and works very well. The software is a little difficult but nice when you figure it out. Only took away a star because the play on any screen feature has not been working on my iPad Pro, sometimes it connects but most of the time it does not.
