The kit comes with a laminated glass lens already attached. With a laminated display the air gap between the display and front glass is removed. This greatly increases the viewing experience and removes the worry about dust and dirt getting under the lens.
This kit is suitable for the AGS-101 and the AGS-001 consoles.
To install this kit there is no soldering required. This screen is plug and play. Soldering is optional.

Notes;
1. OSD menu including options for screen colour and brightness etc is available with the soldering of 1 wire. IPS screen will function on a fixed brightness level without this wire if you choose not to install it.
2. Please test your screen kit for faults before installation, photo or video will be required for potential warranty claims. Any issues are to be reported before installing inside a shell or adhering to a gasket. Once stuck down it will not remove without damaging the screen or the ribbon.
3. It is advisable to wear a static bracelet before installing the screen to avoid any potential shorts.
4. The words on the screen are complete. (Blanked for photo only)
Excellent laminated screen. On screen display menu via touch or oem brightness button is super nice
Amazing replacement screen, its nice since I broke the ribbon cable on my original screen falling down the stairs
Works as described, very happy with it.
Can't comment on how it affects battery life yet, but there are 8 brightness levels you can use to optimize for battery life and lighting conditions.
Also has a mode to turn on scan lines like the original screens, which I prefer.
Requires soldering of one wire for full functionality, but it's worth doing while the console is apart.
It has a touch sensor to bring up the OSD if you don't want to solder, but honestly I couldn't figure out where you would place it.
Super easy to install, i recommend either buying a funnyplaying or extremerate (i chose the latter)shell as they are both cast to suit this screen.
All in all was about a 15-20 minute install, including the soldering.
Much better quality than some of the other kits (imo better than the hispeedido kit)
10/10 quality product!
