Customer Ratings & Reviews

The controller is a great idea, but it stopped working after three days. I redownloaded all my apps, but it still didn’t work.

It works but not well with a Fold4. Would've been nice to know b4 I bought it.

Didn't work out so well. I should have read more reviews before buying for my son. He doesn't like it.

The quality of the controller was horrible and the user interfsce was bad as well

The agent did not advise of two backbones which lead too me purchasing the wrong one!

Wasn’t what I thought it would be Good product wrong person

It was a complete wast of money do not buy waste of time

Nice but it didn’t work after a new iPad, $500 and this device. Let down.

Not the best for big or small trips, to doesn’t fit with a phone case

Very slow. Glitches all the time. Difficult for kids to use.

This model is an upgrade from the PS Lightning version I purchased a couple years ago but it’s still a ways from being a solid product. I’m confused why the same tech that is used in the Xbox controller can’t be applied to this controller so that the thumb sticks feel more durable, responsive, etc. For $130 or so I think they could invest more in quality. I gave this product 4 stars because it still works and is good for what it is. I’m not disappointed in the purchase I just think they can do better for the price.

I got this as a gift for my nephew and he loves it! Some of his favorite features are: • Game changer for gamers and bring ease to mobile gaming • Easily transforms your iPhone 15/ Android in to a mobile gaming device • Use the Backbone with any video game that is controller supported • Portable: Compact, sleek, and compact design • Ergonomic design: Easy to hold and handle • Great versatility: You can use it with Xbox Game Pass, PlayStation Remote Play, Steam, GeForce NOW and Amazon Luna • You don’t need a console to enjoy: easily download free games on Apple Arcade or Google Play. Great for kids! • Great quality: Highly accurate thumbsticks and responsive D-pad and buttons. • Some popular games: COD Mobile, Roblox, Diablo, Madden NFL Mobile, Resident Evil Village, Minecraft • No charging required and you can charge your phone while you use it so you can lengthen your game play. • Easy to set up - the Backbone app organizes all of your games into one place

So this little guy will take you very far. Maybe you dont wanna shell out so much money for a console or pc. Have a phone? Everyone has a phone. Odds are its usb c. Get you one of these, get an xbox ulitmate pass and boom you have access to a large library of cloud gaming. I do recommend having stable cell service or just use wifi. Otherwise youll be having horrible input delay. No fault of the remote, just the cons of cloud gaming. If you use cloud gaming, itll run smooth frames but wont exactly be 4k resolution, but itll definitely look nice. Now it does have a hub feature that basically turns your phone in to a console. Google/apple store wise, itll include those games as well in its gaming hub. It runs off your phone so no charging necessary. The joy sticks resemble the ninentdo switch. Two little nubs that arent that comfortable for fps but it gets the job done. Now if you want the more xbox feel when it comes to the joy stick i recommend the scuff nomad. Slightly cheaper, just as effective, its wireless(uses bluetooth), and has a decent battery life. All in all this thing is great if you travel or just dont wanna shell out so much money on some hardware.

The controls are easy to use just like the Xbox controller just separate from each other, plays very well and functions too very great, I highly recommended if not using your fingers to touch the screen, lol

works great with iphone. turns your phone into a gaming device! works well with apple arcade and other cool games like resident evil and gta. easy to install. highly recommended!

Great device! Not the app. I feel like with all the memberships we have to pay as gamers now.. easy on charging for backbone

The BackBone One controller has a great design and comfortable to use in linf gameplay sessons. The BackBone App ofiicial built softwate intergades many pkatform in an easy to use and navigator User insterface. Services like Apple Arcades games install on the iPhone, Xbox cloud gaming, PlayStation Remote Play, Nvidia G-Force service are available to use. The zero Lag from controller input since it connects directly to the USB-C port. No dongles needed. I love the feature to record 1080p video gameplay and screenshots to share on social media. i I highly recommend.

1.- Easy to set up 2.- Friendly 3.- Good for travel 4.- Good for use on air plane

Awesome controller and works really well. Doesnt work with all apps, but thats the app developers fault for not including controller support. Only complaint about the controller itself is that the analog sticks have absolutely no resistence. It works great with game pass and playstation streaming

According to my 13 year old son, “the controllers are small and it feels very plasticky. On the positives, you can take it anywhere which is great. There is still wait time for games. It uses apps where there is a limited amount of people that can play at a time.”
