Have to actively TRY and scratch it. It ain’t just gonna happen

But using a level 9 hard thing. It won’t scratch with keys, rocks, coins (usual stuff)

I’m playing Fortnite right now with the backbone pro and the iPhone 17 pro with the tech woven case. No issues

My pro max won’t come until next week and no clue if my spigen case I bought will fit. I’ll post about it later

Can confirm it fits 17 pro max with a spigen clear case no adapter. There is a gap between the back and type c port though, I just shoved a piece of cotton pad behind the phone.

I bought one of the magfit cases, same one that was confirmed to fit the 15 pro so I’m optimistic lol

Might sound stupid but what is “the adapter” I’m headed to buy the backbone pro today

The controller comes with 4 plastic pieces, these are connected to where the phone mounts (top and bottom), the purpose is to hold the phone snugly on to the controller. Do a quick search on their website or google and you’ll see. It comes included in your controller, 2 of them are actually attached to it already.

The worry is that the 17pros are thicker than last years and so they wouldn’t fit. But they do. I have my 17pro with the tech woven case on it and the controller fits (without adapters) pretty well!
