The design of the BACKBONE One is nothing short of impressive. Its compact and ergonomic form factor provides a comfortable grip, allowing for extended gaming sessions without any discomfort. The controller's build quality exudes durability, assuring users that it can handle the rigors of intense gaming without compromising performance.
Setting up the controller with her Android device was a breeze for my daughter. The intuitive design and user-friendly interface ensured a quick and hassle-free connection, instantly transforming her smartphone into a portable gaming console. The seamless integration with popular gaming apps made the transition from touch controls to physical buttons remarkably smooth.
The controller's responsiveness and precision are standout features. The tactile feedback of the buttons, triggers, and thumbsticks enhances the gaming experience, providing a level of control that touchscreens simply cannot match. Whether she's navigating through complex landscapes or engaging in fast-paced battles, the BACKBONE One ensures accuracy and responsiveness that elevates her gameplay.
The inclusion of the Backbone app is a thoughtful touch. It serves as a centralized hub for discovering, capturing, and sharing gameplay moments. The ability to jump into games directly from the app enhances convenience, adding an extra layer of accessibility to her gaming library. The social features also allow her to connect with friends and fellow gamers effortlessly.
The BACKBONE One Mobile Gaming Controller for Android is a standout accessory that caters to the needs of avid mobile gamers. It's a gift that combines innovation, comfort, and precision, creating a gaming experience that goes beyond the limitations of touch controls. Highly recommended for anyone seeking to enhance the mobile gaming journey for themselves or their loved ones.
There is an app that you can download for the backbone, and it does have a paid subscription option for $39.99/year, but the subscription is not required to use the backbone itself. You do get firmware options with the app as well as button mapping and joystick calibration, factory reset and then system info on your backbone like the model and serial numbers and the version of firmware you are using. Now, you do HAVE to select the free trial to be able to use the app, but they make it really easy to cancel and even send you a reminder to cancel towards the end of your subscription plus, immediate in app instructions on how to cancel if you want to cancel right away. This really annoyed me at first but I bit the bullet and tried it anyway just so I could review it and... I freaking loved it so, I’m going to eat my crow, my original review was only 3 stars because of the app and the inability to use the app without selecting the free trial but it has loads of features including chat areas, adding friends, easy connection to Twitch, a place to hold your captures, an awesome support team in the help section and free 3 months of nitro for Discord(when I joined). So, I came back to update my review. I really have loved the backbone since I got it and I take it with me everywhere! The only feature I didn’t like was the app itself and now that I actually used it (instead of just being mad about a trial requirement) I really like it too. Great product all around at a really good price tag for what you’re getting.
