“C est une bonne qualité malgré mon écran d‘ iPhone 8 est trop petite pour jouer. Imagine ce sera bien de jouer sur iPad comme la Switch. C est le top. En attendant des nouvelles créations. J adoré cette manette c est la facilité de jouer. Bravo a vous !”

“Honestly, the best item for a gamer period! I can play Xbox, PlayStation, and steam on my phone with this controller! You can also play App Store games but I don’t care much for those. This is THE perfect gift for anyone who is a gamer. You can play anywhere! Make sure you have great connection first. Downside I have to take off my phone case in order to fit it in properly.”

“Love it. It works beautifully. The reason I gave it 4 out of 5 stars is that when I want to use it I have to remove my protective case for my phone. I know for certain reasons you made it that way. But if you find a way to be able to use it with certain cases or make a case specifically to work with your controller would be amazing. Also, if you could make one to fit an iPad mini. The bigger screen would make it more enjoyable to play as a handheld.”

“If I am not wrong, it shows one year free service if sign up during my first use the adaptor. I just want to consider and setup later, and then free service period is 3 months only now. So I loss 9 months service I should have and be steal?”

“This was a waste of money for me. The controller doesn’t easily attach to my IPhone and the buttons are in an awkward position when trying to play a game. Not my best purchase.”

“I tried Backbone to increase my game play and free up screen space. This is by far the best controller for phones. Also the added touch of supplying the updated adapter for the new releases iphone 13 & 14 is just awesome. Would recommend!!”

“Backbone itself is great…got a new phone and it didn’t fit. The adapter they sent (for free) is trash. Doesn’t even hold the phone in place. Disappointed, and won’t be using mine any longer.”

“Purchased as a gift. Excited that the adapter is in the box with the iphone versions but can also be added separately for free. The adapter is the only way the iPhone 13 will fit and it works well. Easy to use and a quick snap in process. Lots of games available.”

“I initially had problems getting my hands on one of these. I was visiting the USA and decided to be clever and order it for while I was there. For whatever reason the product never got shipped, so we were off to a rocky start! However... On return to the Uk, I was able to source one from a local supplier. And I have to say, wow. The experience is seamless. Plug the phone in and away I go. The app store/console app is fluid, responsive and just works. The button to take you there and back just works. I'm not any kind of expert gamer. I have an Xbox controller at home. This feels similar, is comfortable and I haven't noticed any kind of issues. The games play well. Thumbsticks and buttons behave as I would expect. Because I have a phone contract with a 5g provider that allows me to use unlimited data because I buy my Xbox unlimited through them, I can game on the go, at better speeds than my home broadband. I am definitely a happy boy with this. Highly recommend.”

“I play mostly on a PS5 console and the PS backbone controller is truly a great little gadget for airplaying some of my favorite ps games while the TV is in use by my wife. Also found some great games on Apple Arcade that works lovely with the controller. Highly recommend it. I’ve yet to try out shooter games.”

“The controller is perfect and works flawlessly. I use the device regularly and haven't noticed any wear. The one gripe I have is this: To use the controller with any other device such as PC you need to have the premium Backbone app subscription. Why oh why is the functionality locked behind a pay wall? The other features of the app make sense to charge for however I don't agree with limiting the use of the controller to just the iPhone. Make this right!!!!!!”

“As long as you use the adapter it is wonderful. It is like having a controller attached to your phone. Which makes it much easier to play games.”
