LG Shine

Disadvantages: Some minor ones

...Phone Features * Bluetooth * 2 mega pixel camera with macro, flash, multi-shot feature and 4 colour effects * Video capture * GPRS * MP3 Player * 2 default games * Voice recording The LG Shine KE970 comes with headphones and a music player controller, phone adaptor, usb cable and software to download onto your PC.

This phone is a slim, light, stylish slider phone with a smooth, shiny metal body. I bought the LG Shine KE970 6 months ago and have found that the phone gets scratched easily due to the metal finish. I recommend that if you purchase this phone to buy a case for it to prevent damage to the exterior. Well unless you don't mind the scratches. The large wide mirror screen allows easy...

Lg Shine

Advantages: camera
Disadvantages: the mirror screen, bad battery

...LG Shine.. yes its a pretty phone and it looks good. i brought one to replace my old boring phone. i had saved so hard for this phone, as i got it out the box i was over the moon. The next day i went shopping i was texting my friend as i got of the bus, but i couldn't see the screen. i was so upset and angry, anyway i kept the phone uploaded my music. My phone without a doubt was on charge 24/7 the battery was drained from having 4 songs and a few pictures. i was quite upset because my old phone was so much better but because it didnt look all that i spent £'s on a new phone that was rubbish, yes it has the camera and music player, cool screen but really it wasnt all that great. the phone was so bad i had returned it within the month. i have spoken to many people about this phone, they were quite shocked really, but from this...

My LG Shine and Me

Advantages: Camera photos are decent if you can get a picture, its relatively cheap to buy .
Disadvantages: Heavy, unattractive, uncomfortable to use, easy to scratch so the 'Shine' fades to a grey blur.

...I have had my LG Shine for roughly six months now, and I am very bored with it now to be honest. This phone I find has very limited features, I remember being on the bus just after I had bought it looking at the instruction manual and thinking "have I actually made a decent decision here?" and as time goes on, I feel as though I made a wrong decision. The LG Shine's main promotional feature was the fact that it was shiny. Well, after six months of having mine, it is now scratched and dull and I am careful with my phone. It gets a huge scratch on it even if its just in my handbag whilst I am at work. The camera on the phone is of decent quality, but shutter time is about two or three seconds, so I find if I'm trying to take a photo of a once in a life time shot, I won't get the picture because the phone is still focusing itself. so if...

Shine with the LG Shine

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 they dont always work which is a bit infuriating especially if you really need to send a text. But that doesnt always occur but if you were to buy the phone its something to look out for. I also found that i was missing alot of calls due to the fact that the ringing volume really isnt all that loud. I put the vibration on so that if its in my bag i can feel it vibrating on my shoulder or in...

LG Shine

Advantages: good battery life, good quality camera
Disadvantages: screen smudges easily.

...i bought the LG shine about 7 months ago on contract with Orange. the contract only cost me £30 a month, which i thought was very reasonable for this phone, as it is quite expensive otherwise it has many functions, including : bluetooth, camera, video camera, internet access, mp3 player it also comes with a screen cleaner, headphones with a volume and track control attached to it, and a charger. a memory card can be inserted for more space. the screen of this phone also acts as a mirror, which is rather handy! i have this phone in silver, but it can also be bought in red, or black. the LG Shine is fairly easy to use, and is not too big or too small. the battery of this phone is pretty good, and from past experience i know that another battery can be bought very easily and cheaply....

LG Shine

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 it so therefore it makes it difficult to make pictures clear.The touchpad is good if you have had experience with this technology before but can get fairly annoying for the amateur phone user. also the scroll pad which allows you to scroll up and down the menu with a little scroller is a very cool aspect of the phone and makes it much easier to look around the menu. the battery is not too bad...

BORN TO SHINE!

Advantages: The look and feel of quality.
Disadvantages: 2 mega pixel camera.

...◄ Born to Shine From the Black Series. ► ■ The LG Shine KE970 ■ With it's stylish mirrored casing to front, and it's brushed steel finish to the back, it has to be be the most aesthetically pleasing of mobile phones on the market to date. Measuring 99.8 x 50.6 x 13.8 mm, and weighing in at 119 g. The LG Shine is a solid and beautiful piece of equipment. When I went to choose a new mobile phone I scoured many mobile shops in search of a slim, neat, attractive design to replace my Motorola Razor which I had stupidly put through the washing machine in my jeans pocket when in a rush to get my washing done after our holiday. I had always chosen...

BEAUTIFUL LG SHINE KE970

Advantages: easy to use scroller, handy mirror screen, good battery life
Disadvantages: scratches lightly showed up on the back

...****lg shine KE970**** LG really dont know how to create a bad mobile phone do they? This mobile really was a pleasure to use, with the handy mirror front (perfect for those last minute touch ups before a big date or a meeting!) ladys you know what I mean! It has a gorgeous silver steel finish to it and it gives a complete look of elegance to the user. The brushed steel back compliments the silver keypad and the shiny mirror front. It really does shine beautifully! The only problem I found was that in the sun you couldnt really see the screen and more your face in the reflection! However it wasnt much of a problem as if you tilted it a little it was easy to see and use. It has good battery life and the scroller gives easy naviation in the menus. The mp3 player on this phone was great, you could minimise the player to the top...

Krusell Cabriolet LG Viewty Leather Case

Advantages: Snug fit, quality made, comfortable to grip and good lens cover
Disadvantages: Makes the phone bulkier, some buttons may feel more awkward to press

...Krusell Cabriolet - LG Viewty Leather case Having just updated my mobile handset to the LG Viewty I was keen to get a case which would keep it in slightly better shape than my last mobile which I'd throw around everywhere and toss into my bag. There didn't seem to be many Viewty cases on the market, several were generic ones a bit like a solid sunglasses case which shut with a magnetic popper - something I wasn't keen on as I'd have to keep taking it in and out of the case to use it, and also having read somewhere (although this may not be factually acurate) that the magnet could affect the internal workings of the phone. Just in case, I decided on a case which I could use the phone but still protected the shiny bits and the Krusell case suited perfectly. The case fits the handset snugly and the holes allow access to...
