The Backbone One gaming controller features a standard Xbox controller layout, except for the menu/settings buttons and Backbone specific buttons (at the bottom right and left).

There are lots of mobile gaming controllers to choose from these days, but many suffer from latency (due to Bluetooth connections), or only support one of the two big mobile operating systems, or have other shortcomings like lacking analog triggers (or even missing some buttons entirely!)
