DOCUMENTATION AND INSTALLATION:

Installation

Shell Trim Trick - Curious where to trim your shell to create the appropriate viewing window? As a dry fit, backing still on the lens, place it into the shell and hold it up to a light. You can see the areas where the shell will need to be trimmed.

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.

Couldn't be happier.

Amazing DMG style screen

Install was easy, soldering was easy but not for everyone. Overall I enjoy using this screen so far looks great made my gbc look better than ever. I paired this mod with the clean power mod too.

Nice product!

So far I like the new screen. Install was pretty easy. The instructions are a little jankey. But not terrible. This was the first gameboy mod I have done and it worked out great. The new screen paired with the prestige housing really brings the gameboy back to life. I’ll be purchasing again for sure. I hope the longevity of the screen meets or exceeds my expectations, although, time will tell.

Didint last long

Had this for less then a month something is wrong with the controller board itself cause the osd menu looks fine

I'm sorry to hear of the issue! Please message us at support@handheldlegend.com so we may get this resolved for you.

Too cool!

This is the best bang for your buck budget wise. Not only the the price point on point, but it comes with plenty of bells n whistles for any modder. I love the on board battery indicator which I find helpful since rechargeable batteries and the LED battery light don't always play nice. I'm also impressed with the controls to line up the screen just right. Takes some of the guess work out of the physical alignment of the screen itself. Highly recommend for those looking to save a few bucks but want some great features as well.
