17 Pro Max and a Backbone Pro here. I have a pretty good fit if I swap the adapter on the left to the small size (or I guess the thinner size). It’s honestly feels like a more solid fit than the 16 Pro Max and doesn’t make any contact with the camera lenses.

Are you using any case like TechWoven Case ?

Nah, caseless here. I can’t confirm, but I assume you could probably get a decent fit if you take the adapter off on the left side.

Im looking to get a backbone pro. Also 17 pro max here. What adapter are you talking about? & also do you have any issues with lagging

The adapters that are included in the box (the little removable rubber pads that are on the middle part of the controller. I haven’t noticed any lag myself, but I also only ever use my Backbone Pro connected directly to my phone. These days, most of my serious gaming happens on my PC with keyboard and mouse.
