    Though it wasn't always easy to use, the LG Shine KE970 is a pretty phone with decent performance. We just wouldn't recommend paying full price. Read more

    • The LG Shine KE970 cell phone is certainly attractive. It also has decent call quality and a great camera.
    • The LG Shine KE970 has a flat, poorly designed dialpad, unintuitive Talk and End keys, and an average speakerphone. Battery life was somewhat low, and the mirrored fro...

    The latest addition to LG's Shine range, the KE770 offers an expandable memory slot, a 2-megapixel camera and a music player. Despite the low price point, the latest Shine retains a similar appearance to the , making it a reasonable choice for fashionistas on a budget. The clear focus of the Shine Bar is its design. At just 9.9mm thick the compact and lightweight frame makes this handset both stylish and attractive. Read more

    • Compact and slim, metallic finish, A2DP Bluetooth, competitive price
    • Poorly designed keypad and controls, average display

    I've set the connectivity to my local company, fido. I have my sim card in it and everything and making phone calls works, but it consistantly shows that the phone is "roaming." I called fido and although and they couldn't help me. If the roaming symbol is accurate than that means I may face extra charges for using the phone even though I am in my local area. It doesn't make sense. Be warry of this when you purchase an unlocked phone. Read more

    We bought our 14 year old daughter a new cell phone for Christmas. And she just loves it! It is well built and good quality sound. It has everything she was looking for in a phone. I would recommend this to anyone who is wanting to buy it! Read more

    I hate cell phones, but I am required to have one. So, let me just comment on what is good & bad about having this phone. The MP3 ringtones & sound quality in general sound like a buzz on this phone. Otherwise, the features, & style make up for that! Read more
