Doubt it will happen anytime soon. This one is on sale because Apple doesn't use lightning any longer on its phones. The "android " one is the iOS one now also.

Pretty much can't pass it up at this price, although that means I have to set foot into a Costco at Christmas time...

I keep hoping the android version will pop up for this price. My first gen Kishi is on its last leg.

Meh meh not sure about all this hype when you can just pair most dual shock Sony controllers to iPhone so easy with Bluetooth. Works like a charm, saved me $30.
comes with a $25 psn code too though, as someone that owns a PS5 that's an incredible deal

I would recommend waiting for the USB one to go on sale again for 49,99 and then send it back to backbone using their warranty claim service to get the V2 USB C version that has removable inserts for big phones.

I had to do it that way because the default one wouldnt fit my iphone 15 pro max + case. With the inserts all fully removed now my phone finally fits.

So I bought this a few days ago and I'm still wondering how I'm supposed to get the $25 PSN code. I just signed up through my Google account for backbone and downloaded the app but no sign of a $25 code

How did you activate them because these are confusing? And do you need to make multiple accounts?
He probably also claimed the 3 months trial of Apple Arcade and the backbone+ for a year for each of them 😆

Hey so if I signed up for the Backbone account using Apple login option (as opposed to Google), do I just not get the $25 gift card code? Because I signed up over 5 hours ago and I haven't seen any email…

If you signed up with Apple and don't have any space in your iCloud the email gets bounced back to the sender. I've been working with support at backbone to get the credit. They asked for serial number and a copy of the receipt. I sent them the info am still waiting.

Interesting. Well I have plenty of iCloud space, and still never received the email. Really regretting using Apple.

What means of contacting Backbone support worked for you? Thanks.

Once you register it, you will receive it via email pretty instant.

Could it have sold out during your drive? I called my local store on Christmas Eve, they had 50+, but when I arrived 15 min later there was only 20 left

Anyone gotten their $20 price adjustment from Costco? I went there today and was told they don't do price adjustments for items out of stock.
