Customer Ratings & Reviews

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.

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.”

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 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

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

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!

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.

Controller works as expected, but lacks quality. The buttons/joysticks work, but aren’t super accurate. The backbone was annoying to me due to having to take phone case off in order for it to fit. Overall decent for the price.

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

Great purchase. Love that I can play on the go. I bought it as a Christmas gift for my fiance but find myself using it alot.

This is the perfect gift. My family is always on the go and this has jept my chikd occupied. It is so convenient. We bo linger have to lug gis actual PS console when you travel to our families home or a hotel. I definitely recommend this for kids wgo are gamers

My son loves it so much that i got ro with hik to stop playing on it. ...lol

Product is fun to use, We are very pleased with this purchase from Best Buy. There was an issue when ordering from the store for pick up at a later date because associates kept ordering incorrect item, but issue was resolved!

This product is amazing! It is very simple to set up and it works great! The price is so worth it because it essentially buying 3 different consoles and making them portable too! I recommend this everyone!

Works great with the 15 pro! I play it all the time for rocket league. The backbone app is kinda annoying, but don’t need to use it just use it in the app. Plug N Play.

Can’t wait to use this when the kids get home From college next week!

Very fun to play with. Worth every cent. Made out of plastic but very durable. Haven’t had any problems with it and I use it everyday.

Functionally, it works fine with its simple plug-in and highly responsive buttons, but being required to have a subscription just to fully use this thing is completely unreasonable, even if it's only $39/year. Paying $99 is already a hefty investment, but also needing the Backbone app and again, the subscription, outweighs any potential value you could get out of this thing. Further diminishing its value is how much space the app and whatever games you have on your phone take. If you heavily play games on the go and have the cash and phone space to spare, then it's a potentially good investment, but for those who prefer budget friendliness, then give this a hard pass.

Pretty great, my only inconvenience is that if you have a thick case you have to take it off. Other than that you can take it anywhere and its very convenient!!

Great for phones even the new model but BackBone really needs a cooling system you guys are slacking big time
