    One thing not mentioned here (and in almost all other reviews) is that the backbone has a $50/year in app subscription in order to use the backbone app. Whereas the Kishi doesn’t make you subscribe in order to use the Nexus app. Also the Backbone locks other features behind the subscription, such as being able to connect it to an iPad or Mac. Because of the cash grab that backbone is trying to force you into, I’ll be buying the Kishi and will never buy a backbone. If you’re an early adopter of the Backbone you get a lifetime subscription to app, but if you are new they lock features behind a very high subscription fee.

      so did you also tell everyone that you get a 1 year Subscription and also get stadia free for 3 months with free games also a free $10 Itunes card to buy anything there. oh not to mention being able to stream on your mac computer as the razer kishi has none sound like your a real fanboy. if your gonna down play a product you need to look at the product thats not giving you nothing or the option to pay but you look at a pay wall SMH. BTW razer will not have support for this app just like they did with the V1 which i send back my v2 do to lack of support for android as you cant play COD apex or other FPS games oh and you cant even play Genshin Impact with out using a 3rd part app which you have to pay for to play any of the games i just mention

    For the past 3 years I have used my Razer Kishi v1 and it’s been the best experience ever. Especially gives you a feeling that is like console gaming. The controls feel so comfortable! Even the controller. Now that my buttons are drifting finally - I decided to try the Backbone PlayStation Edition - worst experience ever. 3 weeks playing and the drift started in both joysticks. Time for my V2 upgrade.

    Got the backbone for Christmas last year. Just 3 weeks ago I tried to use it and it just stopped working out of nowhere. And the day before it was working perfectly fine. And the customer support is terrible and took days to respond to each email. And when they did respond the way the support tried to fix it was like. “Did you go to setting and try to fix it” and after I told them that it took on other 5 days to respond. I’m never buying a backbone ever again. And I love razor but I don’t know if I the same thing will happen to me again

That’s what your paying for. So guess Sony and Microsoft shouldn’t charge u either.

    I’m play with the Kishi V1 and it great. The compact size it the best feature. Great video on the new version. I would love to add a jump and slide 🛝 to one button on the Kishi V2 with CODM.

    I don't understand why all reviewers of these gaming handhelds (yourself included) never mention the fact that these do not work if you have a case on your phone - a huge flaw in my book as 99% of people have their phones in a case!

    I have the Backbone and I'm happy with. There is one thing I'm disappointed with. Because of my Samsung S23 doesn't have extra micro sd slot, I use usb c adapter for micro sd car, where all my roms are. And that doesn't work when I plug this to my phone via the Backbone. I'm mad at Samsung and disappointed that the usb port in Backbone is only for power and not data.

    I love it I just got the Razor keishi because I've been playing a lot of PSP games lately on my Android I have the Android version but all the emulators work great with the controller easy to map the buttons only thing I did like a little bit better about the original razor controller was its analog sticks they're more like the switch analog sticks now before they were like full gaming analog sticks that you find on PlayStation controllers it's not a big deal it still works fine just less travel and not as substantial feeling but the rest of the buttons are better in every way the whole design is better in every way it holds on to the phone better than the first one did the controls would fall off the phone a lot on the first version but the second version there's no such thing it holds the phone nice and tight the Android version looks more like a switch because Android phones are a little more Square looking that's the only thing I don't like about the iPhone version the iPhone's Corners are just too rounded like my Android phone actually looks like it's part of the controller but the iPhone looks like it's a phone attached to controllers

  • @EpicHotCheese

    Stay away from the Backbone one, it requires in app subscription to use the app and they don't let you reprogram the button. Also, the analogy sticks are poorly built and will start drifting after some light uses.

  • @Psyymann
    @Psyymann Год назад

    Can't make this up. I went to buy the backbone but they were sold out. Bought the kishi v2 instead. Loved it at first. Then it started bugging out after about 4 nice hours in Minecraft. Randomly starts pressing buttons, somehow force quit the game and goes into app info. I'm now fumbling the device trying to figure out what's going on. I go press clear cache, instead the kishi takes over and deletes the app with all data...
    There goes my nice little mansion.. Returned it and just got my money back.
    Gonna take a break from games for a minute.

    I'm never buying one of these expensive controllers again after getting the Bsp D8. That thing feels way better than the Backbone I wasted my money on. It has Hal sticks and triggers, it's way more ergonomic, and I don't notice any Bluetooth latency and it fits tablet and phablets with cases on for a little over $20. these controllers are such scams. 😂

  • @AndreaB6
    @AndreaB6 2 года назад

    I got one for android, but it feels unsatisfactory to say the least. The grip is average, the buttons are mouse like, and the sticks are worse than the switch joycons. The kishi V1 was way better, if not for the fact that my current phone doesn't fit it even without the case

  • @dvxAznxvb
    @dvxAznxvb 2 года назад

    The buttons feel awkward like it was assembled by a child with sticky fingers
    It works for holding the phone but over longer durations it's just too heavy to hold your hands up with it; I wish they had Bluetooth cause it uses lightning which is on its way out
    Assuming we can use kishi for Android for iphone 16s in the future

    • @CryoDrago

      @Ghosttiee I very rarely use it since I bought it for the sole purpose of gaming on the go, but I would also like to try the Kishi V2 if they made an iPhone version.
      Edit: Woah hold up, looks like they have an iPhone version now. I’ll have to check it out when it goes on sale.

    While it is true that the backbone requires a sub for some additional features, bare in mind the kishi doesn’t have most of these features at all. Backbone with no sub is fairly similar to the kishi in terms of features

  • @jacobwonder6735

    Personally, I would rather buy an actual controller, and/or just have an old moded device so I could have quality games.
    I think most of us will agree that the DS, Gameboy, and PSP all had better games then what mobile does.
    However thank you very much for reviewing this!
    Edit: I do agree that it would be so much better if it collapsed all the way, otherwise it's just as easy to carry a gaming controller. Very niche market for that, and that's totally okay. More tech and innovation is always good.

    • @AppleInsider
      @AppleInsider  2 года назад

      I agree that depending what I'm doing, a Bluetooth controller is great. I use my PS5 controller all the time but when mobile, something that holds your phone is very helpful.

    • @MJDross

      I have the original and it throw it in my back pocket. It works really good. If you don’t need the new macro buttons of the new controller then the old one works great
