The Backbone Pro is designed to elevate your mobile gaming experience, featuring up to 40 hours of battery life and a comfortable, ergonomic design. In our glowing 9/10 review, writer Matthew Adler praised it, stating, "The Backbone Pro may not be the revolutionary leap its predecessor was when it hit the mobile gaming market five years ago, but it meaningfully improves on just about every feature that made the original so great. The addition of full-size thumbsticks, upgraded triggers, customizable rear buttons, and virtually silent face buttons and D-pad more than justify the 'Pro' name."

One of the most exciting features of the Backbone Pro is its FlowState technology, which, according to our review, "lets you connect the Backbone Pro to an even wider range of devices including tablets, smart TVs, VR headsets, and more over Bluetooth, along with your docked smartphone." This versatility opens up numerous gaming possibilities, making the Backbone Pro a fantastic investment for any mobile gamer.
