Mobile gaming controllers transform your phone into a mobile or handheld console, like the Nintendo Switch, Steam Deck or an ROG Ally.

For instance, BACKBONE+ serves as a hub for all your games across several systems like PlayStation, Steam, Xbox, and beyond. You can also screen record, connect with friends, and cast to any screen. Of course, you can also just use it as a Bluetooth game controller. Why am I telling you all of this?

Because the BACKBONE One is currently discounted to $70, normally $99, saving you a cool $29. You could definitely use that money you save to grab a game in one of the big holiday game sales. But this deal won't last long, so don't waste time if you're interested.
