Review: Does the job - The colour is a little paler than I would have liked, I’d say it’s a bit more grey than what’s shown in the listing. The screws were quite hard to get in and required a lot of force to turn, not sure if this is maybe because of the kind of plastic? The shell is nice and sturdy but doesn’t feel as nice as the original shells, this is a lot more matte and slippery. Does the trick though and comes everything you need.
Review: Beyond expectations - Is not what I was expecting. I wanted a hand held game console for my son
