I'm not a "gamer". I'm a middle-aged man who liked the idea of being able to play games on my phone on occasional down time, so there are certainly greater experts than me on this kind of product. I understand some people feel this is overpriced, because even though it's both USB-C and Bluetooth, you can buy one of each type of some less expensive controllers for a lower overall price. Again, this isn't my specialty or even my hobby, and I have no interest in owning more than one of these. So to just have one that can do both is fine with me. It feels well constructed, good in the hand, etc. I feel like I'm holding a high-quality item when using it, and it's comfortable for someone who doesn't do a lot of this. When it comes to gameplay, it's very intuitive and responsive. I'm very happy with the purchase and feel I got a high-quality item for a fair price reflective of what I received. Maybe the hardcore crowd feels they can do better for less money, but as someone who prefers quality over savings, I'm happy with what I got.

The BACKBONE Pro is honestly one of the best things you can get if you’re into mobile gaming. As soon as I snapped it onto my phone, it felt like I was holding a legit handheld console. The buttons are super responsive, the joysticks are smooth, and it’s really comfortable to use, even during long sessions. Whether I was playing Call of Duty Mobile or Genshin Impact, everything felt way more fun and way easier to control. The Backbone app is also pretty awesome. It keeps all your games in one place, lets you record gameplay, chat with friends, and even stream if you’re into that. It works perfectly with stuff like Xbox Cloud Gaming and PlayStation Remote Play too. Plus, it has smart extras like a headphone jack and charging port, so you don’t have to give anything up while playing. If you play games on your phone a lot, this thing is 100% worth picking up.

I owned the first-generation Backbone and absolutely loved it until it finally gave out and the buttons stopped working. I decided to pick up the Backbone Pro, and I’m so glad I did, this thing is incredible. I’m a huge PC and console gamer, and the Pro makes it feel like I never leave my setup behind. The wireless connection to both my iPhone and iPad is flawless, there is no lag, no drops, just smooth gameplay every time. The new back paddles are a great touch and remind me of my Xbox Elite controller. They’re super handy for fast-paced games like Fortnite and Call of Duty while on the go. The best part is being able to play my Steam games right from my phone. I couldn’t do that before, and now it feels natural. Overall, the Backbone Pro is a major step up from the original its comfortable, responsive, and totally worth it for any serious gamer. Five stars ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

This fits my Galaxy Z Fold 7 and iPhone 14 Pro Max (using a lighting to USB C adapter I bought separately). The set up is easy, just got to figure out the buttons and configurations at first. It’s great for COD Mobile, Metalstorm and FPS games. It’s very comfortable and life, feels like a PS4 controller in my opinion. It charges very fast via USB C and you can still charger your phone and the remote while in use. It’s a great controller all around. Only complaint I have is that sometimes it disconnects on me mid play , not sure if it’s just me or if I tap or the buttons that causes that. Annoying sometimes… But other that that, I would recommend as it’s definitely worth it!

The build quality and grip are excellent, and the controller works perfectly with games like Madden and Assassin’s Creed Mirage. When a game properly supports Apple’s MFi (Made for iPhone) controller framework, the experience is smooth, responsive, and console-like. That said, some games—such as FIFA—don’t fully support joystick input, which is a game limitation rather than a hardware issue. This is where iPhone gaming really stands out: Apple’s MFi standard ensures consistent controller behavior when developers implement it correctly, unlike the fragmented controller support you often see on Android. Bottom line: if you game on an iPhone and stick to titles that support MFi controllers, this is an outstanding mobile gaming setup.

Choosing the Backbone over other phone-mounted gaming controllers was an easy decision — and it continues to exceed expectations. From the moment you unbox it, the attention to detail is clear. The design is clean, minimal, and thoughtfully crafted — it honestly feels like something Apple would make. The ergonomics are spot on. It fits perfectly in the hands, even during longer gaming sessions, and the materials feel premium without being bulky. What really sets Backbone apart is its platform. The app interface is smooth, intuitive, and well-integrated — making it more than just a controller. It feels like a complete gaming ecosystem, with easy access to your games, screenshots, friends, and streaming options. Bonus: I was also able to run Delta and load up old Game Boy Advance games from my childhood — and it works beautifully with Backbone. No need to subscribe to their premium platform if you're just looking for the core functionality of the controller. It works straight out of the box.
