So far so good, the screen looks marvelous and it was easy to install, I'm having a good time with my GBC.

Great look and the brightness/color changing is great. I did have to do little trimming to my "IPS" shell but it still turned out amazing. super easy install and doesn't require any soldering. 10/10 WOULD RECOMMEND.

Does not fit correctly with these added inserts. It squishe the screen and motherboard

Board shorted out on everything, ended up black taping the whole thing to get it to stop, the color and brightness select points didn’t work. Spend the extra 5 bucks for funnyplaying

My goal was to simply have a stock looking GBC with a backlit screen and this screen definitely gets the job done. Apart from the translucent Purple, the original range of GBC's will go well with this screen. As the physical screen is longer than the stock screen, it will extend further down and will be visible on a transparent or translucent shell.

Some issues I ran into but overcame;
The alignment bracket comes in two parts, one that aligns the main body + top of the screen and another bracket for the bottom. The bottom one straddles the A + B button wells so it fits perfectly, however the top bracket, despite fitting well, may have caused too much bulk resulting in a very cramped and tight fit. Which leads me into the next issue.

The screen worked without issue outside of the shell, but once put back together, only displayed a black screen and wouldn't post, i.e I could hear the startup sound but it would not go into a game menu.

The fix appeared to be to remove the top alignment bracket. After putting it back together without the top bracket it worked without issues.

You will need to do some shell modification to get this to fit along with some cutting of the DPad according to the instructions. Although I made the advised cuts to the shell, I chose not to cut into the DPad simply due wanting to take that step last, however, the controls still work without major issues and I've continued to use the GBC without a trimmed Dpad.

As there are newer and smaller screens available that come with a lot of conveniences, this screen is in a precarious situation where you could definitely make it work, but would you really want to go through the trouble? I think it may be a good idea to reduce the cost of this screen by $10 or so to make the value proposition more enticing. At present, its too similarly priced to other screens that don't require extensive shell modding.

All in all, it's a solid option.

Horrible instructions, spare wires that do go somewhere but it aren't shown in the guide so i left them out. The small connecter from controller board to screen is not the best and will "seem tobe secure" but wont be making contact, so just squeeze that on snugly. Touch pads are flimsy but if you are delicate and dont rush you can get the in place easy. Once i troubleshooted the blank screen i kept getting (from the small cable) igot it running properly and i will say the effort paid off just make sure to get the screen aligned. Overall its a solid kit and it works very well but the installation and lack of instructions will be a challenge for inexperienced modders so be warned
