Works great on iphone 15, with a case by Dbrand I simply didnt use any of the controller’s adapters. Had to remove the ones on it. Works on all the games I’ve tried it on. Only issue I’m running into is when you try to charge and use it at the same time sometimes itll disconnect… might be the power source I’m using.

Convenient and easy to use device that can be traveled with. I enjoy using it when I need to be away from home for hours or days. Comfortable hand-held and audio is suffice.

Feels great and the buttons are very crisp and reactive. Feels like a brand new playstation controller. I am not playing playstation games on my phone.Just once from the google app store and they are working great.

Backbone - One - Left Side Joystick Issue
|

Posted .
This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.
The Backbone controller is one of the best plug-and-play devices for turning your phone into a handheld gaming console. The concept is excellent, and the device worked seamlessly—when it worked. I really enjoyed the gaming experience while it was functional.
However, like many other users, I encountered an issue with the left-side joystick/buttons. They stopped responding after a while. I attempted to request a refund/replacement, but the process was frustrating. I submitted the request once, but was told it was rejected due to selecting the wrong color in the return form. Unfortunately, I didn’t have time to go through the process again.
In short, while the Backbone offers a great user experience and innovative design, there appear to be some hardware reliability issues—particularly with the left-side controls. It’s disappointing that I couldn't get a replacement, because I would have definitely continued using it.
Still, I think it's a great product with a lot of potential—just needs better quality control and customer support.

This works well with my s25 ultra. It is hit or miss on when it works with my slim samsung case, but i have no issues using caseless. controls are similar to anyxbox or ps5 controler. using it to play cod mobile is awesome. definitely wish i had bought a lot sooner.

Whether playing mobile games or using with Playstation connect, this device is awesome! Buttons have great action and inlove the pass through charging from the side of the controller. Amazing for gaming on long flights. Cant recommend enough.

This thing is awesome. I’m able to play my PS five on the go anywhere I’m at as long as I have a Wi-Fi or cellular connection. Just gotta leave it in standby mode play this thing all the time the buttons aren’t the best but it’s better than not playing. It’s hard to play first person shooter, but it’s great to play sports games Not saying that you you can’t play first person shooter but it’s just tough maybe better for younger people I was able to get this for $75 on sale in store. Not sure the price now but definitely would buy again tried to link it to my Xbox, but I believe you need a separate version of the control would definitely buy again

The controller works really well. I do wish it was bigger for my hands, but i understand the need for portability. I appreciate the usb c connection for charging my phone while i play as well as the aux cable port for my headphones so that i dont have to worry about Bluetooth lag.

The backbone was a good piece of equipment it wasn't compatible with my phone for some reason but it worked with my mom's phone just fine it's a very sleek design it's just like holding a controller in your hand I was able to use it to play my PlayStation games on my PlayStation as my controller I was also able to use it to play Xbox game pass on my phone which was excellent it was easy to use and understand instructions I loved had interchangeable pieces to fit different size phones overall a great piece of gaming equipment on the go my cousin bought one and he loves it I would add photos but I don't have none at the moment and another thing is that I loved it had its own app for the backbone app was very easy to navigate and easy to use and again very very overall good product for anybody that wants to game on The Go or just doesn't want to turn on their consoles and play on their big TV and you're also able to use it just on your phone to like go through your messages and stuff like that surf Facebook Instagram scroll through the internet

Worth every penny. This backbone was a gift and it gets used EVERYDAY, I had to purchase a case and bumpers for the toggels. The accessories were super cool (and purchased separately). This backbone is litterally a PSP but cheaper and you use your phone. I would recommend getting a warranty because the analong sticks and triggers started to stick and that is common with backbones.
