1$169.99 at Backbone$169.99 at Best BuyWith an impressive 40-hour battery life and a design focused on comfort, the Backbone Pro is set to transform your mobile gaming sessions. In our glowing 9/10 review, Matthew Adler noted, "The Backbone Pro might not be the groundbreaking shift its predecessor was upon entering the mobile gaming scene five years ago, but it significantly enhances nearly every aspect that made the original stand out. The introduction of full-size thumbsticks, refined triggers, customizable rear buttons, and whisper-quiet face buttons and D-pad truly earn its 'Pro' title."

A standout feature of the Backbone Pro is its FlowState technology. As mentioned in our review, "FlowState allows the Backbone Pro to connect to a broader array of devices, including tablets, smart TVs, VR headsets, and more via Bluetooth, in addition to your smartphone when docked." This versatility opens up countless new gaming possibilities, making the Backbone Pro an exceptional choice.
