Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great for rpgs Nd other games of that nature. If you play FPS games like call of duty mobile then this is NOT a good choice. Small sticks retstrict precision aiming.  the feel is similar to the Nintendo switch joy cons, so if you don’t like them, then this is not for you.

Its prerty cool just wish it would vibrate on all gaming. Plus in order to get the full experience you do have to pay for a subscription. But if you dont mind the cost I definitely recommend picking on up.

I love my backbone one! The fact that I dont have to map any keys, and that it is powered by the phone is a huge plus! I hate having to carry chargers everywhere. I wish I could use my fold 4 as a display but other than that, I am extremely satisfied.

If you have a spare phone or just want to use yours for gaming. This is a great piece of kit to do it. I stream Steam games to my phone and play them. Also great for emulators on android. Pass through charging is the best feature l.

I might have returned but i was spared my dignigty and pes he loved like he hurt. Soo good? Good boi.

It's usable, not very precise and hard to push buttons make rapid pressing difficult. I've had it for 2 months now and the entire left side doesn't work because of the connector ribbon in the extender bar but I am trying to contact the backbone company for repair or replacement so I can only give it two stars for now as a workable controller for a couple months that was way overpriced.

Very easy to install and lots of fun when on the road or out of home

The position of the right thumb stick will make your thumb rather sore. The controller disconnects from your phone a lot for no reason at all. For the price it's not as good as you would expect. You would think it would be better quality than an Xbox controller but it's no where near.

This item is excellent! Chraper than the PS portal and way more versatile. Can do eveything the portal can do and more. Highly recommend if choosing between the two.

It works great, totally elevates game play. But I have had one warranty replacement cause it quit working, and now the replacement isn’t working either. 8 months and going to try a third

I really enjoy my backbone, it makes playing games made for phones so much easier to handle

Solid but feels slightly cheap the plastic creeks, FYI, if you plan to use it with that iPad, make sure you activate the iPad option in the Backbone plus app before your free subscription ends or you’re locked out of using it with an iPad

Pass through works great and the gaming hub is cool however i have 2 major issues with this product. First, the grips are horrendous. Not ergonomic and painful on your hands after heavy usage. Second the right stick is poorly tuned to the point that it becomes easier to play the game without the controller (Call of Duty Mobile for example). Theres no precision and i hope they fix these issues with the next model.

Not great for xbox, PlayStation or steam mobile gaming. You need a subscription to backbone at $40/year to play xbox PlayStation or steam. You can play through the xbox gamepass app if you have it. It’s not even on the App Store anymore. For android or apple.

I enjoy the backbone very much this is actually the second one I’ve bought my only issue is the left side of the controller all of a sudden just stopped working this is the second backbone I’ve bought that’s done this and I just don’t know why it was working one second and the next it wasn’t

Disappointed that it is not compatible with all cases. I have two versions on Supcase and neither is compatible. I took case off and it seems to open up to just about that size, so with a case it hardly fits. The rubbers that hold it need to be wider to accommodate bigger cases.

Right trigger went out after one week of use. Was fun wile it lasted

I love the backbone, i just needed the playstation version of this product.

Joysticks suck and it’s very delicate if your gentle with it it’s greaay

Can't figure out how to use it. Going to return it asap
