Customer Ratings & Reviews

This was a gift for our grandson. He loves it, it allows him to play his Playstation games remotely when he isn’t home. He already has the Nintendo switch, and he says this is a great addition to his gaming setups.

Purchased the Backbone for my daughter who has an iPhone 15 ProMax and it works great. I just wished it had the capability of working with phone cases attached to the phone.

Very good on the go portable device , only slight problem is joysticks very small & loose for adult thumbs , that involve shooting games

Alas, a gaming device that allows for me to play all games on my phone that is better than a Steam Deck, ASUS ROG Ally and a Switch (minus Nintendo’s star lineup games). The app interface is intuitive and a pleasure to use- showing all of my gaming possibilities. If you have a PS or XBOX you can stream games using that hardware but you really need 5Ghz wifi and the bandwidth. Now that Nvidia lets you use their hardware for a small fee also, you could play all your steam games remote and dont even need a pc. There are some addon costs and $40 annual fee for the Backbone app, but I am highly enjoying mine. One concern is that my phones battery will wear down quick gaming with it all day.

I bought the Backbone when it was first released, and after a few years it sadly broke. I orginally replaced it with a Razer Kishi (Gen1 & Gen2). When I upgraded to a phone with USB-C it was time to upgrade my controller too. I went with the Backbone on a whim and I have no regrets. The App, the ergonomics of the grip, and the sturdy feeling of the phone inside the controller are all way better than either of the Kishi. The only thing keeping me from the backbone orignally was the phone being held at an angle in the original design to account for the camera bump, but this new design fixes that and is 100x better.

Works as advertised and so worth the money especially if you’re a traveler! The app that they download is not free but it really is well designed and thought out. All in all I am very happy with my purchase.

This is a nice accessory for your phone. If you're not really a console gamer anymore in your middle-aged life, this helps make COD Mobile and other games much easier to play.

Great product. Works well and lets the kids turn a phone into a gaming device

Easey to carry and great size for mobile gaming and awesome app that you can download on the google play store

Good product. Works real well when your console is hardlined in. Ended up returning it as I’m not a fan of how it feels in my hands. They’re a little on the larger size.

Provides a new experience for mobile gaming. Of all the options out there, believe this is the best you can get for the cost.

Amazing controller! My son loves it! Definitely recommend for gamers.

Best thing for mobile gamers hands down I play everything!!

Really good gift for family. They enjoy it so much.

Very cool mobile controller! Makes playing Diablo Immortal and many other games so much more fun and comfortable on the iPhone. Could be slightly larger for those with bigger hands.

I enjoy this product. Got it for a great price duri g holiday season. Did not like that i had to purchase a subscription to really enjoy it. However, i do enjoy it overall

Nice and easy to use. I play my games on it while I’m away from home

Excellent little handheld, remote play works pretty seamlessly with it and I honestly can't complain about the experience at all. Way better alternative to spending $200 on the Portal.

Very nice new technology great portable device for on the go

I have been using this device everyday since the day i had made my purchase and i have to say that i really enjoy the experience. Great purchase in my opinion
