Customer Ratings & Reviews

Good controller but not for all games… smaller, fast to install. But not work for all games..

It's plastic but the controls feel good. The placement of the controls is excellent. I have two complaints that if addressed would earn this product it's fifth star. This first issue is the lack of a headphone jack. This is the more minor omission but worth noting. The second and far worse issue is the lack of Bluetooth support for games that do not implement MFI but do implement the Bluetooth controller feature. Had Razer at least added Bluetooth support this would be a must buy. Right now, it is a very nice to have for games that support MFI but there are many games like KOTOR2 that this will not work with.

This thing is awesome. The build quality is excellent and works flawlessly with my iPhone 13 max pro. I would have given it 5 stars if the XYAB buttons weren't so firm.

Got it for my iPhone 13 to play Minecraft and the like. 1000% improvement over the touchscreen controls. Responsive, feels good in my hands. I did switch the grips for the B style, much more secure/steady with those grips on the iPhone 13. Highly recommend.

This device is great! I’m on the Xbox game pass beta for iOS and can literally play any game on there. I’ve been playing games like fallout 4 and Battlefront 2 with no issues.

Feels a little cheap in your hands, but it plays well. Easier to charge phone from side. Doesn’t particularly wrap around a 12 pro. But the pro max fits like a glove

If you’re looking for a handheld, as an adult…or someone with large hands, this is fantastic. Far more CAPABLE than options like the BACKBONE. Comes with inserts to fit regular and plus sized phones. Easy to install and use. Stores with ease and collapses to nothing. Fantastic.

I bought this for my son to use on his iPhone X for specific games that he likes to play. He said that it was incredibly easy to install, just a few clicks to attach and the connection was made. Playing games on the phone was that much easier without having to position the fingers over the specific areas of the phone screen.

Useful controller to have when gaming on the go. Will mostly use during travels on a plane less to take. Button functionality and responsiveness is great.

My husband loves it plays with it all the time good deal.

Not much of a gamer but I had to find something as I did not like that the controllers took away some screen "real estate" (on a cellphone) when I played COD. I hesitated for about a week as I could not, for some reason or another, confirm that this controller worked on the iPhone 13 Pro Max. Once verified, I gladly ordered it. There were some connectivity issues to start, about a week of use or so, but since then, this issue has not presented itself again. I think it was just a firmware update. Once connected, and there is a learning curve from using the screen control to the actual physical control, it works perfectly. After some time of playing and getting used to the controller, I am actually impressed and glad that I got it. Gameplay is much easier with the use of the two joysticks, buttons, and most of all, trigger. I would recommend this to those looking for an actual controller that makes the game better.

I decide to go with the Razer Kishi for my iphone. The quality of the controller is really good. It feels good in my hands when using, it really helped me with my games on the iphone. I know $99 is a good amount of money for a mobile controller. I feel this is a great product and you get what you pay for.

Awesome controller. Works seamlessly with iPhone for XBox remote play. Only complaint is that you have to remove phone case to use.

This is one of the few controllers that plugs directly into an iPhone which removes a lot of latency a Bluetooth controller can have when gaming. This is the only reason that justifies the high price, because it certainly is not the quality. The triggers are not smooth, the d-pad and buttons are mushy, and the position of the right joystick is uncomfortable to use. But it allow me to play iOS games with controller support, GeForce Now, and Xbox Cloud Gaming on my iPhone.

Great little gadget for kids who are gamers Very easy to use. Says it only works with iPhone 11 or higher but my kid was able to use with iPhone 8

Not having to change batteries is awesome. The controller is charged by your phone and let me tell you I’ve played classics like Final Fantasy 7 and Chrono Trigger for 6-8 hours or more straight on my IPhone 12. You can also charge your phone while having the Kishi attached, no interruption in gameplay. MagSafe charger will not fit on back of IPhone while controller is attached, normal charging only. Btw, even though a lot of games on the IOS store do not show controller support, they actually do support. FF7 and CT are two of those games that do not show support but actually have been updated to support controllers. The down button on the D-Pad squeaks on rare occasions.

Worked fine but just never seemed worth the money and hand cramps due to how it is built

Decent for phone, but the phones senses your on a controller

I bought my fiancé this backbone as a gift. We returned it because he did not like the idea of mobile gaming (also, between you and I, he is kind of boujee and isn’t a fan of knockoff bands). Unfortunately, we did not get the chance to try this out.

Good handheld remote for iPhone. A great alternative to carrying actual full size controller. Works with Xbox cloud gaming as well.
