If you are talking about the Backbone+ Membership, that is if you want to unlock additional features inside the Backbone app. You do not this membership to use the Backbone. Everything we showed on the video was without any type of subscription service.
We decided to look on this further because viewers kept telling us you need a subscription for some features. Turns out that we since we bought the device before November 4, 2021, we have a lifetime subscription. This was given to us, but we had no knowledge about this. It was a promotional gift that's no longer offered. We apologize for not noticing this during our review. So we will be making a note in the description and hopefully some notes during the video, to make people aware of this. Thank you for bringing this to our attention again.

This was super helpful and answered a lot of my questions, I have a mobile game I wanted to get this for and now I feel comfortable with my future purchase .
Is the controller at max width? I only ask because it looks offset in most shots, like the phone is mounted at an angle. It clearly fits, but it almost looks like it's busting at the seams. Is that true?
The Backbone is not at max width. Even with the case it's length is less than 6 1/2 inches. The Backbone stretches all the way to almost 7 inches. I guess it looks weird in the video but that's mostly us working with the camera in front to get a good shot. It really fits well, at least with the Spigen case we mentioned in the video.
Excellent i was looking for this video exactly, can you tell what spigen case model are you using please ? Because i want to fit the phone into the backbone with the case Thanks you
It's the Spigen Ultra Hybrid S Designed for Galaxy S24 Ultra Case (2024). We have an affiliate link in the description. This one has a kickstand, but there is also one without the kickstand for a cheaper. Just remove the "guides" inside the Backbone, since the is a big case, and you should good to go.
I bought it. Its awesome. But can i check if its the same on ur side. When playing ps5 games remotely, it is not in full screen right? I mean it wont cover the whole screen right?
Yes it doesn't cover the screen. We believe this is due to the aspect ratio of the phone screen which is different than the 16:9 aspect ratio of the PS5.
Thanks for asking. It's the Spigen Ultra Hybrid S. Totally forgot to place a link in the video. Here is our Amazon affiliate link: amzn.to/4aAclCM in case you want to help out the channel. It's a really nice case. Bought it back in January and it still looks line new. Provides good protection and you can't beat the stand that is flush with the back.
You do not. The Backbone works as a game controller for many apps. The PS4 or PS5 is necessary only if you want to stream games from your console using the PS Remote Play app.
The only thing bad abt backbone is the subscription service
Which they didn't mention...

@@akhilalexglol you can still use it without the subscription
Qué chingón ver a la raza en gaming, a muchos nos encanta desde morros este rollo 🎮 ¡Sigan con el gran trabajo, amigos! Ya tienen un nuevo sub.
I like the aspect ratio, more close to 16:9. 21:9 looks stupid as a portable gaming resolution.

Glad you enjoyed it.
Excellent. I was looking for a way to play Shaq-Fu on the go. Can the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra run Shaq-Fu? My main is Auroch.
Have you played the sequel, Robin Williams-Fu?
Excellent review!! You made me want one!!
Awesome review, you answered every question that I had about this device. Love your guys personality and love the logo 🍉

Brotato? Please say it works with brotato...
Are you using a gen 1 or gen 2 backbone?
Did you remove the paddles to fit it with the case I have a similar case but even with no paddles the USB c is just to short to fit my case
Yes, we removed the paddles. The Spigen case we got is pretty thin around the bezels so it fits fine.

@@glazed_watermelon thank youy
Do you need a subscription to play games?@@glazed_watermelon
Looks like it works with a thin case? I see a clear spigen on there. I'm debating getting one.
Definitely a thin case is the way to go. The Spigen is nice because even though it has a stand, it sits flush with the back.
I have an s24 ultra with a ghostek case. Will the backbone fit over this case?
No
I bought it. Its awesome. But can i check if its the same on ur side. When playing ps5 games remotely, it is not in full screen right? I mean it wont cover the whole screen right?
Yes it doesn't cover the screen. We believe this is due to the aspect ratio of the phone screen which is different than the 16:9 aspect ratio of the PS5.
What case is on the s24 ultra

@5:20 - 😎👍👉❤🔥
Did you really just call circle O?
Not only that, we called "x" by the letter's name too. It's supposed to be "cross". Just a little faux pas when reading the script.
Do you need a ps4 or 5 to run this
You do not. The Backbone works as a game controller for many apps. The PS4 or PS5 is necessary only if you want to stream games from your console using the PS Remote Play app.
So I can connect t to mys24 ultra and play call of duty warfare straight off
The Backbone has support for both Call of Duty Mobile and CoD Warzone Mobile. You can check the Backbone website for more details.
