Backbone for iphone
My teenage grandson loves video games and this was a perfect gift. I also found a phone for it which offers extra protection from damage

Great for s25 ultra. Good Fit.
works great with s25 ultra and can be used with Bluetooth audio with no lag. 5.1 Bluetooth recommend for that. Full-size thumb sticks is great and a bigger overall controller is great compared to the non pro backbone. Feels like a proper controller instead of a compact controller. no vibrating, depending on the person is a plus for me. vibration will kill your phones battery. yes works native on iphones as well. (15 pros and newer) only downside is there's no hall effect joysticks. They seem pretty reliable as of now. shouldn't be an issue. Get when its on sale. Don't pay full price.

BackBone PRO product review
The Backbone controllers are solid performers, and the Pro model offers significant improvements over the base version, making it definitely worth purchasing, especially when on sale. Having used many alternatives—including products from Gamesir and standard Xbox controllers with phone mounts—I can confidently say that the Backbone brand is top tier. Key Features and Advantages Superior Ergonomics: The way the controller secures the phone ensures excellent weight distribution, allowing for comfortable, extended gaming sessions. Critical USB-C Connection: The direct USB-C connection is a critical detail that sets this controller apart. Most other controllers rely only on Bluetooth, which can cause problems with certain mobile games and lead to interference if you have multiple Bluetooth devices connected. The direct USB-C input eliminates these issues, providing a reliable, lag-free experience. Versatile Bluetooth Connectivity: The controller also includes Bluetooth functionality, allowing you to pair it with larger devices that don't fit in the mount, such as tablets, laptops, and even TVs! When used in Bluetooth mode, the charge lasts for multiple gaming sessions before needing a recharge. The Pro Subscription The optional Pro subscription unlocks highly valuable customization options, such as the ability to add controller support to games that don't natively support gamepads. This is a massive benefit. While this feature is still being developed, the progress is amazing, and they offer a request feature for games you want them to prioritize for support. Important Note on Phone Cases Your current phone case may not be compatible with the controller. If you want to avoid removing your case every time you play, I highly recommend visiting the Backbone website to check their list of officially supported cases. Gamer parents this is what you've been looking for.

I ordered online to pick up via curb side. After picking up and getting home. I noticed the item they gave me was not what I ordered. I had ordered the back bone pro for 135 dollars. what they gave me was the lesser model. they gave me the backbone one gen 2 listed at 99.99 online. instead of the Pro version listed at 134 online. so when I went to return it after noticing they treat me like a criminal like I'm trying to cheat them when in reality this store is. If anything I overpaid thinking I was getting what I had ordered online when in reality I was getting scammed played and overall ripped off. thanks target

Bigger controller and buttons are in the right place. Huge upgrade!
