The top screen is the 3D one, and it is the one that cracks when a 3DS gets closed on something. This is the upper LCD panel for the original launch-model 3DS - a real display replacement, not a lens or a digitizer.
What this fixes
- A cracked or shattered top screen
- Dead pixels, coloured lines or bands across the upper display
- A top screen that stays black while the bottom one still works
- Half the top screen displaying and half not
Which part do you actually need?
- Top screen broken - this panel
- Bottom screen broken - the 3DS bottom LCD
- Bottom screen displays fine but touch does not respond - the touch screen digitizer, which is the thin layer over the lower LCD
Fits
- Original Nintendo 3DS (CTR-001), the launch model
Does not fit
3DS XL, New 3DS, New 3DS XL, 2DS and 2DS XL. Every one of those uses a different panel.

Common questions
Does this include the 3D effect? Yes, it is the top panel for a 3DS and works as the original did.
Is soldering needed? No, but the 3DS is a full teardown with very fine ribbon cables. Work slowly.
