Backbone One Case Review – Fancy and excellent case with one flaw

Backbone’s 2023 holiday lineup included updated controllers for the iPhone 15 series, in addition to the primary Backbone One carrying case. Jared and I actually have been using Backbone One controllers for a while now. I often use the Razer Kishi and Backbone One when testing any game, but recently I’ve been mainly using the Backbone One for PlayStation Remote Play at home and on the go. I used to be interested by the Backbone One case, so I ordered one for myself a while ago. Jared’s praise for this piqued my interest and is interesting enough to prompt me to do a fast review to assist any Backbone One controller owners determine whether it’s value getting one. Although this review relies on Backbone One case within the PlayStation versionthis may even apply to the regular version.

The Backbone One case looks sleek and fancy, actually it might probably push it on those fronts, and that is what made me order the PlayStation version. I used to be curious how the outer material would behave, whether it might last in a backpack and how it might cope with being dropped or just crushed in a bag. So far, every thing is superb apart from one flaw, which I write about below. The white felt-like finish feels good within the hand and one way or the other hasn’t gotten dirty despite being dropped just a few times and sitting in my bag for over a month when I’m going out.

The inner lining can also be soft and jogs my memory of fine quality iPhone cases. There is not much room within the Backbone One case for anything, except possibly your headphones or a small charging cable. If you wish, you’ll be able to put the adapters that come with the Backbone One controller into the case, but there isn’t a dedicated memory for them. A top bag could be nice.

The primary issue I actually have with the Backbone One bag is the zipper. Backbone calls it a low profile zipper that’s waterproof and easy to open and close. I actually worry that the zipper might get stuck almost each time I exploit it. So far this hasn’t happened, however it’s not fun to make use of. The materials are nice and the zipper itself holds well, but this aspect needs improvement for the brand new model. I ended up reaching out to just a few friends who even have this and all of them have the identical problem with it. None of us had any issues with the zipper getting stuck, however it’s not nice or easy to make use of as a zipper.

Is the Backbone One case overkill for a controller that almost all people would just throw of their backpacks when going out? Probably. Is it value $24.99? So far yes. The Backbone One controller often retails for $99.99, so it might look like quite a bit for 1 / 4 of the value, but I’m glad with it, aside from the zipper, which does not look one of the best. I also like how the Backbone One PlayStation Edition case looks and feels in my hand in comparison with other controller cases. However, time will tell how it is going to work after months of use.

Backbone One suitcase rating: 4/5
