Q: Will it work with samsung z flip 5
A: Hi Nikki0411, thanks for reaching out about the Backbone One (USB-C) Mobile Gaming Controller for Android and iPhone Series 15 - Gen 2 Black. Yes, the Backbone One (USB-C) Mobile Gaming Controller works with the Samsung Z Flip 4 and may work with the Samsung Z Flip 5, but it might feel strange to hold. The Z Flip has a Type-C port and smaller grips to help the phone fit in the controller with or without a case. However, some say that the controller may apply a lot of pressure to hold the phone in place and could potentially damage a flip phone. If you have any additional questions, we welcome you to contact MyTGTtech at 833-848-8324 every day, between 7 am-11 pm CST.
