Wow what a deal. $25 PSN credit ?? Even sweeter

Edit: ahh I can see why it gets less than 4 star reviews: lighting port required. Lack of button accommodation and such.

All in all, still a good deal for non flagship iPhone.

By the way do I need to have BOTH PS4/5 and active PS+ membership to take advantage of this remote play? My phone is SE3

"Compatible with All iPhones with a Lightning Port Running iOS15 or Newer (not compatible with iPhone 15)"

This is the first line in the product description.

It's only compatible with iPhone 14 series and below

Didn't even answer my question
You do not need PS Plus for remote play; it is a standard feature of Sony consoles. For best results, though, you want a wired connection for your PS4/5 and a strong (802.11ac/x) wireless connection for your phone.

I have the android version and don't need an active ps+ membership to use the backbone controller for remote play but obviously you'll need to own a PS4/5 if you wanna remote play from that console with your backbone.

Can we buy and setup backbone app for $25 PSN credit then return the backbone? Lol
Sure, they most likely will give you back 25. Report back and let us know

Same here. I love it but also a little upset it went even cheaper. Perhaps a return rebuy situation?

Edit: quick google looks like there's price protection within 30 days. Going to look into that now.
