So I finally got some new equipment; I purchased a Sony a6400 which can record 4K and 2 new lenses as well as a lav mic! I hope the quality is much better :)

You don't need to put back the gameboy together when testing the screen. You can have it layout opened and only put back the cover shell on to put the batteries. I wouldn't remove the self adhesive tape from where the old screen was. You can reuse it to attach the new screen without doing the cutouts to center it. It requires patience but works fine Also, you don't need to flip-bend the brightness control ribbon. You can wedge it against the IR screen since it has a slight notch. Just need to push in the base of the ribbon towards the front case with something flat. It should retain it's shape. Last thing. If closing up the shell seems tight and not flushed, then it is not installed correctly. Something is misaligned. It should close up fairly well. Those are just some suggestions...

Got mine for the Gameboy Color yesterday. It has two touch sensors. One for adjusting light and other to change the screen to different colors.

Nice video, I'll be doing something similar with a gameboy pocket when the screen finally arrives!!

Great vid! I hope to get one of these one day (:

Great video! Congrats for it, very clear, and nice explained. Thanks!

Never being fan of IPS screens, the pixel-look seems off, artificial and ghosting is always a thing - TFT to the win! ♥ Ty!

I have the HISPEEDICANDO (from eBay, not sure if the same) IPS v2 for GBA and sadly the entire top row of pixels is missing, also, for some games with fast scrolling I can sometimes see kind of vertical "scanlines" (not tearing) when moving (eg. when I sun on Super Mario Advance 4), I am not sure if these things happen on other kits. These problems are not a big deal and hardly noticeable at all, and I would still recommend for the price and all other benefits an IPS screen brings.

Is the same screen from the description? Did you buy it from aliexpress?

Iv'e recently purchased the same kit as you. Unfortunately if you pause at 4:28 and compare the text on both lens, it is clear the one that comes with the screen is way off :(. Does anyone know of a lens with more accurate text that fits this backlight kit? Great video! I will be using it as a reference when my kit arrives! :)

Why does everyone else's touch sensor work fine? Like mine never works properly

Nice vid. Why did you pick the smaller IPS screen instead of the other with regular size? I had a dilemma because of cutting housing (transparent housing) but in the end I chose the big one. Can't wait for it to arrive.

I've installed the same screen, although mine was from eBay, and it looks like there is an extra protective plastic layer over the screen itself. I removed the first plastic film when I installed the screen, but when bright solid colors are displayed the screen it's got that weird look that screens have before you peel the plastic film off. There is a layer on the screen itself, but it doesn't come off at all and seems like it's not meant to be removed. Has anyone had this issue, or is it just a characteristic of this type of screen?

hey, i bought a gba screen from the same company and i have some problems with the battery life(it lasts about 3 hours on normal aa batteries). If you have bought the same screen are you also experiencing the same problem?
