Transform your original Game Boy Advance with the Hispeedido V5 Full Laminated IPS Drop-In Upgrade Kit. Designed specifically for the Nintendo Game Boy Advance (AGB-001), this premium all-in-one upgrade combines a 720×480 HD laminated IPS display, pre-fitted replacement shell, full button set and 1800mAh USB-C rechargeable battery.
Best of all, the laminated IPS LCD is already installed and perfectly positioned inside the replacement shell. There is no need to cut or trim the housing, align the LCD or install the screen into the shell yourself. Simply transfer the required components from your original GBA and connect the included upgrades.
720×480 HD Laminated IPS Display
-
720×480 Resolution: High-resolution IPS LCD with sharp, vibrant image quality.
-
Integer Scaling: Uses a 9:1 pixel ratio for clean scaling of the original GBA image without distortion.
-
178° Wide Viewing Angle: Excellent image and colour consistency from virtually any viewing position.
-
Pre-Laminated Glass Screen: The LCD and glass lens are bonded together for a cleaner appearance with no traditional air gap between the display and lens.
-
Integrated PCB: The display PCB is neatly embedded within the LCD's metal housing for a cleaner and more compact installation.
Built-In OSD Menu
The Hispeedido V5 features a built-in On-Screen Display (OSD), giving you extensive control over the appearance of your display.
-
15 Brightness Levels: Fine-tune the display brightness to suit your environment.
-
8 Colour Modes: Choose between multiple colour profiles to customise the appearance of your games.
-
Retro Pixel Effects: Choose between Normal, Retro Pixel, Scanline 1 and Scanline 2 display modes.
-
AGS-101 Style Effect: Retro Pixel mode recreates the characteristic pixel appearance of the original backlit AGS-101 display.
-
Frame Blending (FRM): Frame blending can be switched on or off for games that benefit from the effect. FRM is off by default and is generally not required for most games.
-
Touch Controls: Built-in touch controls allow adjustment of brightness and colour modes.
Optional Button-Controlled OSD
For full control of the OSD menu using the console buttons, three wires must be soldered during installation.
Once installed, press and hold Select + L + R for approximately one second and release the buttons to open the OSD menu. Use Select to move between adjustment options and the L / R buttons to change the selected setting.
Soldering is optional. If you do not require button-controlled access to the OSD menu, the display can be installed without soldering the three OSD control wires.
1800mAh USB-C Rechargeable Battery
Say goodbye to disposable AA batteries. This kit includes Hispeedido's 1800mAh rechargeable lithium battery upgrade, designed to drop directly into the Hispeedido V5 GBA shell with no trimming required.
-
1800mAh Capacity: High-capacity rechargeable lithium battery designed specifically for the GBA.
-
USB-C Charging: Convenient modern charging without removing the battery.
-
USB-A & USB-C Charger Compatible: Can be charged using compatible USB Type-A or USB Type-C power sources.
-
Drop-In Installation: Designed specifically for the Hispeedido GBA V5 laminated shell with no trimming required.
-
Integrated Protection: Includes over-voltage, over-current and short-circuit protection.
-
TI Chip: Integrated power management design with no additional cooling fin required.
Complete No-Cut Drop-In Upgrade
Traditional GBA IPS upgrades can require shell trimming, LCD positioning and careful alignment of the screen and lens. This kit removes much of that work.
The Hispeedido V5 laminated IPS LCD comes already installed and aligned inside the replacement shell. The housing is specifically designed around the laminated display and USB-C battery system, meaning no shell cutting or trimming is required.
Simply disassemble your original Game Boy Advance, transfer the motherboard and required original components into the new housing and connect the supplied IPS display and battery components.
32-Pin & 40-Pin Compatible
The kit is compatible with both 32-pin and 40-pin original Game Boy Advance motherboards. Two ribbon cables are supplied, allowing the correct cable to be used for your particular GBA revision.

Please Note: This kit is designed exclusively for the original Nintendo Game Boy Advance (AGB-001) and is not compatible with the Game Boy Advance SP. The laminated IPS LCD is already installed in the replacement shell and the housing requires no cutting or trimming. Installation requires your original GBA to be disassembled and its motherboard and other required components transferred into the new housing. Soldering of three wires is required only if you wish to use the physical button-controlled OSD menu; these wires can be omitted if this functionality is not required.
