    Excelent product, works with all Turbo frequencies!!

    I tested it with all different crystal oscillators, different frequencies, and works fine.
    I set my game boy color with 24 MHz and the battery icon sometimes flicker. But the color and luminosity are perfect.

    Excellent package and customer service - Could use detailed video resource

    I can hear the screen guides clicking around inside. The left side shim was too tight to use. small issues for such an excellent upgrade

    Brilliant display!

    Packaging: No problem. I ordered this IPS LCD with console hard case so that they put everything in the case to prevent any damage.
    Quality of panel: Excellent (as always…). No scratch damage, no crack, everything is perfect.
    Installation:Not easy. Since I use my original GBC shell, I need to cut and remove it a lot.
    Function:Excellent. The OSD menu helps me a lot since it’s hard to adjust the position of panel AFTER installation.

    Excellent - Great for the Pocket Color

    This is a nice LCD kit for the Gameboy Color. The OSD makes this LCD stand out among the others. The custom color palettes as well as screen positioning make it useful and fun. I don't love the touch sensors but the good thing is that it can be hard-wired and they can be removed, win-win.
    This specific kit also work very well for the hybrid 'Pocket Color' consoles which look and feel fantastic. Overall good product.

    Large Crisp Screen

    Super bright LCD and is larger than the stock display. Well worth the effort. Everything worked as it should including the sensors to change the colors and brightness. Noice!
