Hi All,

Is there any screen upgrades i can order from ebay/amazon/ali-express that are just plug and play for the AGS-001 that are an upgrade and require no soldering?

Cheers

Dan

For the SP, I think they all require soldering for the brightness adjustment, but the screen mod itself is just new screen and ribbon cables (shell also requires trimming to fit, or buy a pre-trimmed shell).
I know the original GBA has IPS mod kits that have touch controls for the brightness that don't require soldering.

There's a ton to choose from on Aliexpress, but I've heard good things about the 'Funny Playing' ones;

Look for touch Version V2 iPS on Ali

Here you can get a display without soldering, two pads, one for brightness, one for colour
