sorted bythese backbones are just a gimmick to me. You go about your day using your phone. Using the battery and then you connect to the backbone and it probably absolutely destroys the remaining battery and you can’t game for long.
people text you and it knocks you out of the game or blocks your screen with a notification etc.
all these bluetooth controllers etc just seem to be cheap ideas that never truly work.
Regarding notifications blocking your screen. Android phones have a gaming mode that you can set to block notifications.
Regarding battery, you can charge your phone whilst using this. You can easily game for a couple of hours on this without issue on a modern smartphone.
Not everyone wants to buy a £200 portal when this does nearly the exact same thing for just a fraction of the cost compared to. (edited)
It’s well made and works well. The app is annoying as it constantly wants you to pay for their service: (edited)
However, the absolute KING of mobile controllers is the GameSir G8. It’s better in every way, from build quality to its analog triggers and hall effect sticks. It feels like a premium “full sized” controller.
Works well with Android games and steam streaming, but I've found it's really good with emulators as it's USB all the controls map automatically.
MAME, Dolphin, YUZU (rip), PPSSPP all work brilliantly (depending on your phone spec of course and being Android).
Ideally I am after a black V2. Could live with white, but the V2 is apparently important for iPhone Pro Max
