“My dream of playing mobile call of duty with a controller has finally come true. Thanks Backbone!”

“When I first saw this device, I was very ecstatic! All of the childhood games I played on Xbox and Xbox One we’re going to come true, and the opportunity to play high demand games as well! Unfortunately, it came with a pretty heavy requirement: Internet. I will say this for the others considering to buy this: this is not a PSP or GameBoy for portable gaming. I was led to believe that the Game Pass Ultimate would be “cartridges” to allow me to play games while on the go. That wasn’t the case; after redeeming my code and getting my BackBone plugged in, I came to find out that you need to have Internet to do Xbox Cloud Gaming in order to access the games. By doing so, you cannot play these games while traveling. That was my main priority. Additionally, the hard requirement of Internet is way too steep. If your Internet is not the best, I would not recommend getting this. I live in a single house with only my iPhone and my roommate’s iPhone on our Wi-Fi. Even after that, I cannot play any of the games in an efficient manner. I would rubber-band, lag, or even have messages say “your Internet connection may delay your gameplay“. At one point, my game actually forced closed me out! So if I cannot play a game without getting a lag spike every 60 seconds, this device is not worth it. Ultimately, if I couldn’t get this to work at my own private Wi-Fi, good luck using Wi-Fi at a Starbucks, library, college campus, or airplane! Very disappointed.”

“This review is about the iPhone 13 pro insert. I'm so proud of this company and how much they value their customer base. They not only were able to retrofit the current backbone device but also got ahead of messaging the new fitting and allowing people to print their own. Phenomenal team and company that is going to do some amazing work in the future.”

“Ordered this along with the adapter for my new iPhone 13 pro and although I was bummed that they did not arrive together, the controller is amazing even without the adapter. Hoping the adapter arrives soon to make it even better.”

“The backbone is awesome! Great to finally be rid of annoying touch screen controls, and have something that really lets me enjoy the games I want to play. The Xbox cloud gaming that comes with the backbone is amazing, however I do experience a lot of lag with it unless I have very good internet. As for as controllers go though; 10/10.”

“Love this thing, and it keeps getting more value after purchase. Best way to play MFI compatible games on iPhone, and it works great on Mac and iPad (with AppleArcade especially) now too! Also really appreciate that the insert to make the controller compatible with the 13max was sent FOR FREE (even free shipping), which was awesome and few companies would do this for their customers.”
