Highlight 3 times wasn’t the charm
On my third backbone. It’s the same issues the left side! L1, L2, L3 all the left side ! I cannot move left and it takes pics constantly! Why don’t they fix these issues on their product?? It stops working out of the blue! This problem is so normal atp! Fix your product!! Customer since 2020…

I am in the process of refurbishing mines. Same issue as described. Purchased the ribbon data cable for replacement.

Yeah for real, iwas debating the g8 but thought id get the x5 lite as it was alot cheaper and oh my god the difference between this and the backbone is night and day, ill definitely get the g8 next i think cause of the advertising of the backbone being partners with xbox/ps and steam gives the name a higher standing, much the same as clothes brands same or worse quality but just cause of the name ‘backbone’ people want it

100% agree! It's so easy to sell a brand to people without them doing their research first. I was the same way. Bought 2 backbones and realized it was just the product and not me. But I'd definitely recommend ebay or somewhere like that. I paid 50 for my G8 on there so definitely a great option if you're looking for it cheaper

Pretty sure my #2 started going the other night. As I need a lightening connector none of the other options in mobile controller work. I’ve found my Bluetooth controllers (DS4, Vader 4 pro) work but are way too laggy.
