Author : Samuel May 23,2025

With the Backbone One 2nd-gen controller already making waves with its support for the iPhone 16, the new Backbone Pro is set to elevate your gaming experience even further. Designed as a next-gen controller, the Backbone Pro offers the flexibility of both handheld and wireless modes, allowing you to connect wirelessly via Bluetooth or directly to your device via USB-C for zero latency and no need to charge your peripheral. The wireless mode adds to its portability and versatility, making it a perfect companion for gamers on the go.

The Backbone Pro stands out with its compatibility across a wide range of devices, including phones, tablets, laptops, smart TVs, and even VR headsets. Thanks to FlowState Technology, switching between previously paired devices is seamless, ensuring a smooth gaming transition. Despite its small form factor, the controller doesn't compromise on comfort, featuring full-sized joysticks that offer a premium gaming feel.

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."*
