  • The Ultimate Mobile Gaming Companion
Color: 1st Gen Lightning (White)
The Backbone One is a gaming controller that has elevated my mobile gaming experience to unprecedented heights. It seamlessly connects to your iPhone's lightning port and transforms your device into a portable gaming powerhouse. Imagine having the convenience of a Gameboy with the world of mobile games at your fingertips, combined with PS5-inspired ergonomics. The first thing that struck me about the Backbone One is its design and ergonomics. It feels like an extension of my hands, and the thoughtful placement of buttons, thumbsticks, and triggers make every gaming session incredibly comfortable. I can easily lose myself in retro games or dive into modern titles, and the controller never lets me down in terms of performance or comfort. One of the standout features of the Backbone One is its compatibility with PlayStation 5. The ability to remote play my PS5 games on the go is a game-changer. It's like having a portable PS5 in my pocket. However, I did encounter occasional disconnection issues due to the PS5 thinking the controller has a low battery, which can be a bit frustrating. Nonetheless, this doesn't overshadow the overall fantastic experience. One thing I absolutely love is the versatility of the Backbone One. It's not limited to just mobile gaming; you can also use it with your PS4, PS5, or even a computer if you're not using remote play. This flexibility adds tremendous value to the controller, making it a worthwhile investment for all types of gamers. I must admit, I've had my fair share of "secret" gaming sessions at work, thanks to the discreet and portable nature of the Backbone One. It's the perfect companion for those moments when you need a quick gaming fix, but your boss doesn't need to know! While the Backbone One is undeniably on the higher end of the price spectrum, I can confidently say that it's worth every penny. The level of convenience, comfort, and gaming immersion it provides is unmatched by any other mobile gaming accessory. In conclusion, the Backbone One is a game-changer for mobile gaming enthusiasts. Its sleek design, exceptional ergonomics, and compatibility with various platforms make it a must-have for serious gamers on the go. Despite the occasional PS5 remote play hiccup, this controller delivers an incredible gaming experience. If you can afford it, I highly recommend making it a part of your gaming arsenal. It's a true gem for gamers who demand the best in portable gaming technology. ... show more

  • Easy to Use, but Not for Large Hands!
Color: 1st Gen Lightning (Black)
I really like the compatibility and ease of use of the Backbone. It comes with an excellent case and works well with a huge variety of games, including PS5 and Xbox X remote play apps. I've even tried it with some Netflix games and got it to work. The sticks are tight, the buttons have good tactile response, the spring is well-made and overall the unit feels well-made. Now for the bad news: It is small. I had to put some cloth tape on the handles to make sure that it doesn't slip for my larger adult hands. In addition, you'll probably have to take your phone protection case off to use it. That's not a big deal. Backbone recently saw that I had a new iPhone 14 and shipped out a replacement adapter to make my phone fit better for free without my having to ask which shows you their level of commitment to customer service. Even with those two issues, I still love my Backbone. Highly Recommended! ... show more

  • Excellent controller for mobile gaming
Color: 2nd Gen USB-C (Black)
I really like this product. My phone (iPhone 15 pro) fits snugly and is extremely easy to attach. It’s comfortable to hold for extended periods of time, well constructed yet lightweight. The major beef I have is that it doesn’t reliably support pass-through charging. When I have a power cable attached, it keeps flipping between charging and not charging. So when I’m low on battery I have to stop playing to take the phone out and charge. Another relatively small complaint is the buttons - they make a loud-ish clicking noise when pressed. It would be so much better for me (and those around me) if the buttons were very quiet when in use. I would also love to have the carrying case included - it was an extra $25 and honestly should have been in the box with the controller itself. Other than that, I’m satisfied and plan to continue using it when I want to play away from my console. ... show more
