Advantages: It has a step counter and other features, plus it looks good
Disadvantages: Camera and memory don't look good compared to other Sony Ericssons

...phone. However, for a new-ish sony ericsson the 2MP camera leaves a lot to be desired. It hasn't got as much memory as many other W series phones, either, with a 512MB memory and the in-built memory of a 112 year old lady. This is to say, none. On the other hand, it looks flash, and the step counter is something to show your friends. When compared to representatives from other phone brands the memory looks good and even the camera looks better. ... Read review

Advantages: It does what it needs to and looks cool
Disadvantages: Its a bit clumsy and easy to do things accidentally

I have had this mobile for nearly 4 months now and although I really like it, there are a few annoying things about it Features MP3 player: which can be synchronisized with windows media player, however I found this to be particularly slow. You can play the media player on the speaker, which is surprisingly clear. But the headphone port is also different to standard headphones and therefore you have to use the uncomfortable headphones ...
...pixel camera, which is clumsy to use, but generally not bad considering it is on a phone. It also has a X4 zoom and a flash. Fm Radio: which only works when you use the headphones, because that is where the aerial is. But found that the signal is very poor. Bluetooth: standard like most Ringtones: they give you 20 annoying ones, but I tend to use music I have uploaded. I sometimes do the same for the alarm, but found I now dislike ... Read review

Advantages: Cheap, good-looking, functional, lovely slide mechanism
Disadvantages: Customisation is limited, settings can be fiddly, no dictionary for predictive texts

I got this phone as a replacement for a Sony Ericsson K310i on which the joystick had failed, and overall I have to say I'm fairly impressed. It's a very simple model with few bells and whistles that exists mainly to do its primary jobs of calling and texting (except for standard organiser, alarm, voice memo and currency convertor features). Calling is no problem, with the slide mechanism a joy to use as a method of answering incoming calls saving ...
...nice and clear, although you will almost certainly have to turn up the initial ringtone sound in order to hear it from your pocket over any normal background buzz. Dual band it is of course, so you can't take this to America - something it's always worth bearing in mind. Texting is fine, with lots of lines of text being displayed on the screen at once meaning you can get a good overall feel for the flow of your message. The T9 predictive system ... Read review

...side of the phone. The LG Shine KE970 is easy to use and navigate. The 2 mega pixel camera takes good quality and clear photos with or without using the macro. When taking photos you can rotate the phone to the landscape position in order to make it more convenient to take a photo using the buttons on the side of the phone. The camera lens doesn't have a cover though so it is exposed at all times which could result in damage. The mp3 player has ... Read review
