Backbone Pro Launches: One Controller for All Devices

The Backbone One 2nd-gen controller made waves last year with its support for the iPhone 16, and now, the brand is pushing boundaries further with the launch of the Backbone Pro. This next-generation controller offers the flexibility of both wireless and handheld modes. You can connect wirelessly via Bluetooth or physically via USB-C, ensuring zero latency and no need to charge the peripheral when using the latter. Wireless mode, on the other hand, enhances portability and flexibility, making it ideal for gamers on the go.

What sets the Backbone Pro apart is its broad compatibility, designed to work seamlessly with phones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, and even VR headsets. It's a true one-controller-fits-all solution, thanks to FlowState Technology, which allows for effortless switching between previously paired devices. The team at Backbone has worked tirelessly to achieve what they claim is the "smallest form factor ever to accommodate full-size joysticks," an impressive feat in design.

The Backbone Pro doesn't stop at connectivity and size; it also offers customization features and remappable back buttons. Paired with the handy Backbone app, you can access games from a variety of platforms, including Apple Arcade, Netflix, Xbox Remote Play, Steam Link, and Nvidia GeForce NOW. Subscribers to Backbone+ can even explore a library of games at no additional cost.

Maneet Khaira, Founder and CEO of Backbone, states, *"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."*
