This is my second backbone purchase in four months. The first was for me, which I loved. It sounds trite but it is definitely a game changer. Now I just get mad at the games not supporting the controller when it makes perfect sense for their game. The second purchase is for my son for Xmas. He has tried mine so I know he will love it. Thanks so much for such an excellent product!

Great when it works on the xcloud. Seems to have connection issues, but that’s xclouds fault. Works for everything else.

Best iPhone controller I’ve ever bought

Y'all don't know hard it is to pick out a controller for a phone. Well, at least with iOS, the backbone was the right choice. The quality of the build is superb, doesn't feel like a phone attachment. Everything is crisp, clean, works as it should. Bought it for the wife so she can play Genshin switch style. She couldn't be happier. Thanks! Received 9 days after purchase.

I purchased this for my husband for our anniversary and he said and I quote "you've unleashed a beast with this.😈" So if you're a wife, be careful. Lol it's TOO good. 😂

I’ve enjoyed backbone so far. It works great on items I’ve found, but I wish Xbox game pass had better functionality. This obviously has nothing to do with backbone but cloud gaming still feels really awful. My only complaint about the backbone itself would be to include the iPhone 13 pro max adapter by default in the future, but I did buy the backbone right when iPhone 13 came out so it’s understandable that it wasn’t available yet.

Beyond expectations! Backbone is showing what the future of mobile gaming will be like. And it looks amazing, creating a console-type atmosphere with the controller and app, they really nailed the feeling of making it feel like I am playing a handheld console. I would recommend this to any type of gamer, wether you own a console or play casual games, this is a must own. Thanks, Michael

Works awesome just like you think it would. I feel like the joysticks are closer to a nintendo switch than a standard controller however. If you arent a fan of that, might not like it. My RIGHT TRIGGER also has an annoying click, the replacement i received also has the click while the left does not. This is only an issue when not using headphones or trying to play in bed with a sleeping wife. Customer service however was awesome in resolving the issue with me. Since iphone 13 came out my 13 pro no longer fits in the backbone. Had to pay $5 shipping for a piece of plastic but it fits better now. I would still await a revision if you want this for your phone with the giant camera bump.

Backbone is one of the best products I've purchased in a long time. With Cloud gaming coming into its own, this is the time to get on board. The controls are really great. I love the layout, and often play games remotely with the Backbone when the games are on my TV or monitor. It is that good. I also think you can get into gaming without buying an Xbox or PC. Just buy the cloud pass, and use your phone with the Backbone. My wife also loves it because she doesn't have to watch me sawing zombies in half while she folds clothes.

The adapter fits like a glove for the iPhone pro max 13

I enjoy using the remote, it’s easier to keep my fingers out of the screen.

Great for what it offers, the company putting out an iphone 13 adaptor and only charging for shipping was a great move many iPhone accessory makers would never do for their customers. I only wish now that they would offer a pro model. Xbox Cloud gaming offers games like Halo Infinite and I find the thin and short grips to be a little small to play anything competitive. The device would certainly lose some of it's small portability if the grips had large curbed backs and under grip trigger for back buttons but it would be a great option for many of us such as myself to be able to play competitive games on the couch.
