Backbone Pro: One Controller for All Devices Launches

by Logan May 12,2025

The Backbone One 2nd-gen controller made waves with its iPhone 16 compatibility last year, and now the Backbone Pro takes things to the next level. This next-gen controller offers versatile gaming experiences through both handheld and wireless modes, ensuring you can play your favorite games seamlessly across various devices.

In handheld mode, the Backbone Pro connects directly to your device via USB-C, promising zero latency and eliminating the need for charging. Meanwhile, the wireless mode enhances portability and flexibility, allowing you to game without being tethered to your device. The controller's broad compatibility spans phones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, and even VR headsets, making it a true one-controller-fits-all solution.

The Backbone Pro boasts the "smallest form factor ever to accommodate full-size joysticks," a testament to the team's dedication to delivering compact yet comfortable gaming peripherals. The controller also features customization options and remappable back buttons, enhancing your gaming experience further.
