Bought this last time. Generally very happy with it. Seems to strongly drift up on the left stick at times, but hasn't affected my basic emulator games other than menu selection. Hoping they have some software to recalibrate it or something.

They have an app that can do that on Android. It sucks tho. You need to turn on location and grant it full permissions for it to work

Beware if you hope to make it work with iOS device - they do not provide firmware to make it i-friendly anymore

I bought this a few weeks ago from Woot and it worked with my iPhone right away without a firmware update. Maybe something with newer iOS versions made it work?

I can confirm this was the case for me too with an iPhone 12 Pro on the latest iOS.

One main difference is in the way they connect. The 8Bitdo is bluetooth only, while the Backbone is only wired USB-C (there's also a Lightning version for older iPhones). The Backbone also says it has passthrough charging to the device and a 3.5mm audio port. I have no experience using either device. I would prefer to have both wired and Bluetooth options built in for flexibility. Not sure if another controller offers that.

The Backbone is also much more expensive. However there is a Father's Day sale for the 2nd Gen Standard and Playstation versions of it on their website right now for $69.99. No idea if that's a common/good sale price, just happened to see it when looking it up to compare.

Razer Kishi is the answer. I used for many years on my Note 8 until I kinda stopped playing and I think the older model did not work with S22U due to my case but either way it was the best controller for the money you can probably find it cheap if you don't have huge phone.

They do have newer version of Kishi though, check razer website

Perfect, thanks. I still have my beloved Note 8 as a backup device to my S24U now. It's actually one of the devices I was considering using with one of these type of controllers for mobile gaming for my kid while traveling.
