Q: Will an Android with an Otterbox case fit?
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Backbone One Mobile Gaming Device (USB-C) - Purple This will likely only be able to fit the phone itself outside of the Otterbox case.

Q: My son asked for a portable game console, would this be it? Can he play Minecraft, Roblox with this? He's almost 9 and don't want to go overboard.
A: Hi, thanks for reaching out about Backbone One Mobile Gaming Device (USB-C) - Purple Think of this more as a controller for games that are playable on his phone. There are cloud and local streaming apps for games available on the phone and through Backbone. It is a great device that I use to play games that are on my computer through my wireless network to my phone with this as the controller. If you are looking for a console that will play games handheld natively on the device, the Nintendo Switch Lite is a great choice and always popular with his age range or the newly released this year Nintendo Switch 2. Another excellent option is the Steam Link which is essentially a handled fully functioning computer but is developed specifically with gaming in mind.
