Customer Ratings & Reviews

Great alternative to a portal. I had this before getting a portal and decided to sell the portal since it’s unnecessary to have both. Especially worth it if you get it on sale.

It’s portable. My Son doesn’t need his phone. He loves the remote control and the performance. It’s great. He loves it. Thank you.

works great. very easy to set up and use. the only downside, there is no track pad available. so if you are using the playstation remote, just remember you wont have access to the trackpad.

Phone controller is excellent, it works perfect, I test with some emulators, some android games, no problem.

I bought this item as a gift for someone, and they loved it 10/10 recommend you can play on the go all you need is your phone

got this for my boyfriend who is always away at work and he loves it so much says it feels like he’s playing at home on the tv

Great device I’m overly satisfied great customer service along with quality product.

I was dead set on getting a Playstation Portal, because that was the official Sony product and I always want to buy the official thing. However, after the urging of a few friends, since I couldn't find the Portal anywhere, I picked this up instead. It hooks directly into my iPhone and lets me play not only my PS5 on my phone, but Game Pass games as well. The remote is super high quality, and requires ZERO charging. There are adapters in the box for different shapes and sizes of phones. The version I purchased will hold an iPhone 15 Pro Max without a case on it. There may be some cases it will work with, but mine is just a tad too big.

The build quality, portability, and ease of use make this controller a must have for mobile Iphone gamers. It also supports phones with cases now which was a nice surprise, highly recommend this device

Turns my phone in to an efficient gaming tool on the go. Great product can connect and disconnect easy and clean to throw in a bag and go.

This thing is amazing. My phone fits it this with ease and I can use my PS5 remote play from anywhere with really a really good connection. Love this thing and use it daily.

Instantly connects the app is cool puts all games in order and shows other games to play downside is its a subscription service. Can easily record gameplay which is cool feature. Using it to play indiana jones, assassin's creed on xbox stream service, Fortnite which been working great, cod mobile where im now undefeated mvp, and the gta definitive editions where cheat code combo smash still works and easy to input.

I love it i can sit on my couch and play my play station

Extremely ergonomic. I was playing emulators with touchscreen controls, and I didn’t realize how much I needed this. The buttons have a nice click to them and the triggers are very responsive. The app compiles all your games that have controller support into one area, and it even suggests more from the app store or other cloud gaming services. You need the app for an initial configuration, but after that it’s plug and play. There’s no difference between the playstation branded one and the regular one, just the color. I got this one to match my PS5.

So much easier to game on my phone using this controller!

It was a good controller, didnt work for the game that i wanted but the games that i did play worked perfectly fine with this .

I'm docking a star because this did not work out of the box with my iPhone 15 Pro. I had to go through and connect it to an Android device first and launch the app. I believe this updates the firmware. But that is absolute nonsense for a product that is literally labeled as the 2nd generation that SUPPORTS the iPhone 15 series. I've read that this impacts a small number of units. But I literally just got this a few days ago. That rant aside, it works really well. It definitely has a Nintendo Switch joy-con feel to it especially with the analog stick placement. I do wish it had some grip to it. It almost feels like it's going to slip out of my hand like butter at any moment. If it feels awkward to connect your phone to it, I'd read the instructions on the Backbone website. It made a lot more sense once I did it the intended way. Could just be a me thing. I'm dumb sometimes. lol The passthrough 3.5mm audio jack is a really nice touch. It does also have a USB-C passthrough for charging I believe, but I haven't had to use it yet. (iPhone 15 Pro battery is kinda awesome) I don't use a phone case, so I don't know how well it works with one. I've heard it can be hit or miss. I believe there are specific compatible cases you can get that work with this. I'd see the Backbone website for that. As a side note, if you're using a controller on your phone for the first time, try something like Minecraft first. I've noticed that some games require you go through their touch screen tutorial before you can even use a controller which is just silly. Minecraft doesn't. That's not the controller's fault and that might leave you with a false impression that it doesn't work. Overall, it's really cool. A bit expensive. But I think I'm gonna really enjoy having this the next time I have to sit and wait for car repairs. (It's inevitable...)

Excellent little device to take with you on the bus, to work for your breaks and on vacation. Very fast, reliable and plays every game with buttons!

Love having this for my phone so that I can play games on the go while traveling

[Employee of bestbuy] Didn’t like depends what ur using it for like cod Mobile or streaming steam/ Xbox games , nvida GeForce the sticks are to small there isn’t enough like deadzone in the joysticks especially cause you cant edit the deadzones it feels very inaccurate just connect ur ps5/Xbox controller to ur phone
