Backbone One

The Backbone One great gives you a more traditional gaming experience with its button layout and grip style. You get shoulder and trigger buttons, familiar face buttons, and a staggered layout for the analogue sticks. When you’re not playing, a Backbone One folds down and takes up minimal space to easily fit in your pocket. The current generation models have USB-C versions that work with Android smartphones and iPhone 15 and 16. If you have an older iPhone, Lightning-connection versions are also available.

The Backbone One is available in white and black color options with PlayStation or Xbox button labels. The big draw of the revised Backbone One is that it’s compatible with many different phone cases, whereas the first iteration required users to remove their phone from their case before connecting to the controller.
