Mobile gamers take note: the Backbone Pro controller — which recently earned a glowing 9/10 in our review — is now available for preorder through Backbone and Best Buy. Priced at $169.99, the controller is set to begin shipping on May 20, making it a short wait for those eager to elevate their mobile gaming setup.

The Backbone Pro offers up to 40 hours of battery life, a refined ergonomic design, and a host of upgrades that justify its “Pro” moniker. As reviewer Matthew Adler put it: “The Backbone Pro may not be the revolutionary leap its predecessor was… but it meaningfully improves on just about every feature that made the original so great.” Enhancements include full-size thumbsticks, customizable rear buttons, upgraded triggers, and virtually silent face buttons and D-pad.

One standout feature is the new FlowState technology, which enables Bluetooth connectivity across a broad range of devices — from tablets and smart TVs to VR headsets and more — in addition to smartphones. This makes the Backbone Pro a versatile choice for both on-the-go and at-home gaming.

Preorders are live now, and with shipping just around the corner, this could be the perfect time to level up your mobile gaming experience.
