Backbone is pushing the boundaries of mobile gaming with the introduction of the Backbone Pro, the next-generation controller that supports both handheld and wireless modes. Designed with versatility in mind, this controller can connect to your device via USB-C for zero latency, eliminating the need for charging, or operate wirelessly via Bluetooth for added portability and flexibility. The Backbone Pro is not just limited to smartphones; it's compatible with a wide range of devices including phones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, and even VR headsets, making it a true one-controller-fits-all solution.
One of the standout features of the Backbone Pro is its FlowState Technology, which allows for seamless switching between devices that have been previously paired. The team at Backbone has worked diligently to create what they claim is the "smallest form factor ever to accommodate full-size joysticks," ensuring that comfort and control are not compromised despite the compact design.
Customization is at the heart of the Backbone Pro experience, with remappable back buttons and the handy Backbone app enhancing user control. Through the app, gamers can access titles from Apple Arcade, Netflix, Xbox Remote Play, Steam Link, and Nvidia GeForce NOW. Subscribers to Backbone+ can also enjoy a free library of games, adding even more value to this versatile controller.
Maneet Khaira, Founder and CEO of Backbone, encapsulates the vision behind the product: *"We believe the future of gaming transcends individual devices. With Backbone Pro, you can experience the excitement and connection of gaming on any screen with just a single device."*
