INSTALLATION:

WARNINGS:

  • Test before installation! When you receive a backlight/LCD kit, you should perform a dry run before installing to assure that nothing has been damaged in transit. A dry run or test fit means the kit is not installed in the shell. This includes the use of adhesives, brackets, and any performed soldering. All ribbon cables should have no bends or creases in them. If you are unsure how to perform a dry run, please contact our support team and we will be happy to help. Backlight kits that have been installed are not eligible for replacement or return.

  • LCD may break if put under too much pressure or dropped. Please exercise extreme caution when installing.

Easy screen mod

Great and easy install mod to do. The colors are a little off, you can really look at the screen dead on in dark areas. It needs tilted a little bit but other than that it’s amazing!

Good quality, unsure about colors

This was my first time installing an aftermarket screen mod such as this one, and overall the experience was good. Install was easy especially while following the guide on the product page to ensure I was taking the steps correctly.

With that said, the experience of using the screen hasn't been quite as nice. I'm not sure what the problem is, but the screen seems to have issues displaying dark scenes. If I hold the handheld with the screen pointed straight towards my eyes, the dark colors fade and become really hard to see, straining my eyes slightly. Tilting the console away from myself (pointing the top of it away) brings the colors to be more visible and not straining, but it's less comfortable to use this way. There are no issues in scenes with bright colors.

I'm not sure if maybe my unit isn't performing properly or if there's something I'm missing, but so far this has been my experience with it. Overall, I am happy with this product.

Easy to install and worked as expected! Definitely a welcome add-on to my Christmas present so I can play on the dark!

Gameboy TFT Mod Works!

Originally, I have bought this mod, but it came in broken. However, handheld legends made things right by sending me a replacement screen without charge. I am happy to say that my screen is now looking good, and I can say that I am willing to buy from here again.

Great Product, Easy Installation

I couldn't believe how easy it was to install this! I had never done a modification of a system like this before and it worked perfectly. Very easy to install and adds new life to my game boy color. highly recommended!

Amazing

The screen upgrade is very easy. No modifications to original shell and the difference between the two screens are night and day. Would recommend immediately.
