LG Black Label Shine KE970 > Reviews

Advantages: Aesthetics, slim, small and stylish
Disadvantages: Software problems, basic mp3 player, not technologically advanced enough.

...abouit my new acquisition, the LG Shine KE970. Previously, I've been known to change my phone roughly every 6-8 months, and after spending 6 months on o2 Pay as You Go after my last contracted ended, the pro's of being tied into a monthly contract far outweighed the cons of being on Pay As You Go, even as o2 are constantly bringing out extra incentives to stay on it. I was attracted to the LG Shine purely down to the fact it was the only good-looking ... Read review

Advantages: Stylish, great features, damn cool
Disadvantages: scratchability.

The LG shine is an impressively functional and stylish phone, which I have been more had ever since I purchased it on an O2 contract three months ago. This is a really well finished product whose design will impress you from the moment you take it out of its funky box and put it on charge, where what moments ago looked to be a mirrored face transforms to show you the stylist and fluid flash background wallpapers or electric blue logo. Anybody who's ... Read review

Advantages: Beautiful phone, great applications, great calling features.
Disadvantages: Gets dirty easily, scrolling is difficult, texting is slow.

This Christmas, I tore off the wrapping paper to find a beautifully simply decorated box, closed uniquely using magnets. Within the box I found a pink phone and numerous accessories. I know what you're thinking. Pink. But this phone is black! I hear you cry. Yes, I know it's black. But mine is pink, and I love it. Not only does it have numerous helpful features within the phone; alarm clocks, various connecting devices, video and camera - but the ... Read review

Advantages: Sleek, easy to use
Disadvantages: non customisable

The LG Shine is probably one of the classiest phones on the market right now. The main draw to this phone is the sleek, elegant design - the slider being one of the best and most durable available on any phone. It has all the normal whistles and bells, such as the bluetooth, camera, and media player. One thing to note with regards to the bluetooth connectivity is the added security inbuilt in the phone - making it nigh on impossible for "snarfers" ... Read review

Advantages: Sleek design, ease of use, good features
Disadvantages: Keys sometimes stick, ringtone could be louder

I recently took out the LG Shine on contract. When i recieved the phone i was firstly really impressed with the way it looked. It was light weight, thin and had the sliding feature which i love in a phone. I also really liked the scroller which i thought was really original. When i switched it on i found it was really easy to use and fell in love instantly. When i went to send my first text message i found that the keys stick a little bit and ... Read review

Advantages: looks ok..
Disadvantages: waste of money

I dont own this phone, but my boyfriend used to, and the very reason he got rid of it, because simply it was a waste of time. If your planning on getting a phone that just looks fancy but hardly does anything, and the performance of the phone is a bit dodgy then go for this one, because it does nothing but look just a little bit \'cool\' The phone froze at least once every week, and it wasnt just his, two of my friends have got the phone, and they ...

Advantages: looks great
Disadvantages: 3G version comes without the memory card

...of all I have the LG U970 version of the Shine. The only difference between this and the KE 970 are that this is 3G and doesn't come with a memory card (it has 575mb internal memory). This is my third LG phone and so those of you Nokia / Motorola lovers don't be afraid to try something new. This LG is a vast improvement on the earlier LG phones i.e. U8110 which I found had terrible reception. The U880 somewhat restored my faith in LG as a phone ... Read review

Advantages: Stylish, Durable
Disadvantages: No exernal memory card, touchpad for some users

I first purchased my LG shine the day it come out, i think it is a very stylish phone and has a stainless steal case which makes it look stylish with its silver but also very stong and robust protecting the phone from any drops or anything like that.The LCD mirror is a very cool feature of the phone which is very helpful to vein people such as myself lol. The camera on the phone takes extremely clear pictures but it doesn't have a very good zoom on ... Read review

Advantages: Easy to use, stylish. durable
Disadvantages: None I love this phone!

This phone is amazing, I have owned it for about 3-4 months and dont have a single complaint. I have had loads of phones in the past few years and this is undoubtedly the best. It is small, stylish and so easy to use, with every feature anyone could possibly need. Navigation around the menus is easy, with a sensitive scrolling key, but not too sensitive! It has excellent battery life, I usually charge mine once every 3-4 days and I use it quite a ... Read review

Although this phone is good the signal range on it is not, i had this phone on O2 and found that whenever i was inside my house i had no signal but outside i had lots. i didn't really want to stand outside in the cold and rain just to make a phone call. the mirror function on this phone was also a bad move by LG cause after a while it became scratched and you couldn't get a protective cover for it.

Advantages: Nice design and look to the phone
Disadvantages: Bad battery life, bad loudspeaker function, no good applications, bad screen visibility

...picked up! To describe the LG Shine in one word, i would have to call it a DISGRACE!....... TO ALL PHONES!!! ... Read review
