The Backbone One 2nd Gen is one of my favorite mobile controllers, netting an impressive four out of five stars in my recent review. It's the mobile gamepad that I would recommend to most people, as it hits pretty much the perfect balance of performance and price.

Thanks to its USB-C connector it's widely compatible, but there's also a Lightning connector edition for those who are still hanging on to older iPhones. It's a great match for mobile gaming whether you play something like Genshin Impact or Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile.
