A new third-party controller accessory from Backbone brings a dedicated device for the Xbox experience right on smartphones, with the Backbone One Xbox Edition highlighting the iconic green theme of the platform. It features a transparent body encased in green film, featuring the iconic controller layout from the Xbox platform, making it one of the best accessories for players who prefer gaming on the go.
Through this controller, users may enjoy a notable Xbox gaming experience that almost replicates a handheld gaming console.
Backbone One Xbox Edition Transforms Mobile Gaming
Backbone has made a name for itself by prioritizing a third-party controller that can transform mobile devices into gaming machines, with its purpose-built controllers encasing smartphones in the middle of the controls. This essentially gives it a look of a handheld gaming console like Lenovo's LEGION GO whose screen is built right in the middle of the controls, but the only difference is that the controllers are detachable.
Backbone's controller focuses more on having the smartphone or its screen being the detachable one, with the controller being the fixed device to connect.
After creating a PlayStation version of its mobile third-party peripherals, the company now debuts the Backbone One - Xbox Edition. The latest design by Backbone offers a compact and sleek controller that users may bring anywhere to connect with their smartphones.
The device also features a seamless experience on mobile for Xbox Gaming as it features a dedicated and official Xbox button to easily access the Xbox dashboard. Users may also use the said button to navigate the menus of the gaming platform faster, promising a "fully connected" gaming experience for users who prefer the Xbox platform.
Console-Like Experience on Mobile via Xbox Game Pass
Backbone touts that using its Backbone One - Xbox Edition is like using an Xbox console itself, especially with the mobile gaming experiences that Microsoft is offering users via the Game Pass. Over the past years, Xbox has made its dedicated Cloud Gaming experiences available for multiple devices to access, including iOS and Android.
Since the switch by Apple from Lightning to USB-C ports, manufacturers like Backbone no longer need to create two different versions of their third-party mobile controllers that have specific connection ports. This Backbone One - Xbox Edition is compatible to both iOS and Android devices, and this means that users who have different smartphones may use only one controller for their experience.
According to Backbone, players may enjoy the many offers from the Game Pass, including Xbox exclusives, as they can be accessed and enjoyed via smartphones using its Backbone One - Xbox Edition. Interested customers may head on over to Backbone's website to buy the new Xbox-specific controller or go to retailers like Best Buy to purchase the new peripheral for only $109.99.
