Can not get use to the blocky stretched screen?

Theres always high praise for the 3x integer scaling of the screen but I just can't get use to what it does to the image. It basically means you have a more forcibly pixelated game, the same as if you took the original screen but enlarged each individual pixel to be chunkier. The end result is a blocky image that seems more pixelated and off then originally designed.

What is strange is when we do emulation on modern screens we are expecting to have a better image not worse, this is the only emulation handheld I have where I am feeling quality is worse. To clarify though this is not this particular devices fault but a challenge of dealing with the upres of GBA games on larger screens.

I have tried most of the shaders and can not get around this, I feel like I may need to go back to a real GBA with a backlit screen and battery mod.

A better GBA front end experience?

My objective with this device is to make a pure GBA experience. I could use advice and recommendations on how to make this better. I like this combination carousel and description layout because I get a good look at box art plus a box to the left and right. I've configured ES to go straight to Favorites. What I don't like is the system select screen because it's really built for many systems. I don't know if I need a new front end or just config changes to make this better. What are your ideas?

I'm using Knulli with Emulation Station as my front end. I'm using the theme ES-THEME-AX-SLIDEMIX configured with game list view style set to NEWSTYLE.
