Hi team, i just installed this LCD IPS screen on my GBA (pic of the product attached), but it seems like the colors are "washed" as you can see on the pictures below from zelda oracle of season (2 pics, one from my issued GBA SP and another from my GBC also with a IPS screen).
Another example is this pic from super mario 3 from the issued GBA SP, where you can hardly see the pyramids in the yellow screen and how the reds are not very alive against the pic of what it should be.

Any ideas of what is happening and how can i solve it?

Thanks!

Looks pretty much identical to the listing images of the screen on aliexpress, listed as "warm" colour. Doesn't look like a very desirable screen from the listing, IPS "v2" still seems to be the best. Unfortunately it looks like you might have fallen for the marketing gimmicks they often use to confuse customers and deceive them into thinking they're getting an improvement when in fact cheaper parts are used and manufacturing has cut corners.

There's no real solving this particular problem besides buying a different kit.

Sorry this is probably your introduction to buying china clone stuff :( always try to do prior research to see if something matches your desired results.
Some people may prefer this "warmer" colour, but if you have something more true-colour accurate to compare it to, it's pretty bad imo
