Great shell, minor alignment issue

Love the clear purple color. Had to sand down the screw posts slightly to get the back case to sit flush, but once assembled, it looks amazing. Highly recommend for custom builds.

Revived my old GBA

My original shell was yellowed and cracked. This replacement made my console look brand new again. The L and R buttons are a nice touch as they are often the first to break.

Good but screen lens is thin

The shell itself is solid, but the pre-installed screen lens feels a bit flimsy. I ended up replacing it with a glass protector. Otherwise, a decent purchase for modding.

Better than expected

I was worried about the button sensitivity, but they work flawlessly. The matte finish gives it a premium feel compared to the glossy original shells from the early 2000s.

Solid choice for beginners

If you are new to console modding, this is a great starter shell. Everything fits logically. Just take your time opening your original unit so you don't damage the ribbon cables.

Perfect fit for my restoration project

The plastic quality is surprisingly good for the price. It snapped together perfectly with my original GBA internals. The buttons feel crisp and responsive right out of the box.
