Excellent project for first mod.

This is my first full mod - beyond cleaning and adjusting buttons. The new shell is great, and it was an excellent first project to get into modding.

Good quality

The fit and quality seem good. My only complaint is that one of the pegs that holds the d-pad membrane in place is too small and short to reach it. Once the shell is put together the rim around the edge of the membrane seems to keep it place so I haven't experienced any problems. It just requires some extra care to make sure the membrane stays put while assembling the shell.

Low quality

Was looking for a quality shell replacement, however I have had trouble find this quality anywhere online. While this product had a great screen lens replacement, sticker, actually did come with silicone membranes, unlike the description says making me spend more then I had too, the shell in indisputably cheap. While I didn’t expect much for a low price, it is not even close to color accurate. It feels like it would break from a four foot drop. I’m sure the clear options would be less noticeable in imperfections making it nicer, however the colored variants are worse than 3D printing with cheap filaments.

Thanks for your feedback! Regarding the color accuracy, if you are referring to the shell not matching the product photo, please reach out to support@handheldlegend.com so we may look into this further with you. If you are referring to the shell matching an original shell color, shell variants will often not be matches for original shells unless stated otherwise.

Rough quality…

Purchased this to give my old and worn game boy pocket a nice clean new look. Unfortunately the shell was warped pretty rough, barely fit together and there’s gaps in the seam where it simply doesn’t not fit well and close fully. The buttons they included don’t fit in the holes of their own shell, and will need to be shaved down substantially to be useable, and the shell itself came with scuffs and scratches on the front. Screen lens was also scratched. If this is a one off bad make then I’d understand but I can’t say for sure. If this is how their quality is normally though, stay away.

Thanks for your review! Please reach out to us at support@handheldlegend.com so we may look into this further with you!
