LG KE970 Shine review: High-gloss, high-class

 

LG continues their Black Label series but this time the black is replaced with a bit of silver shine. The new LG KE970 Shine is the first of the truly shiny devices of the Korean manufacturer that landed on our test site. Packing some serious horse...

LG has made a name for their fashionable handsets. The appearance of the original LG Chocolate took the mobile market by storm. The next high-end mobiles by the manufacturer tried to retain the “wow” factor while in the same time developing the...

LG Shine Slide (KE970)

 

While it looks great and does the basics well, there's nothing ground-breaking about the Shine Slide. Still, for AU$249, the Shine Slide is an excellent prepaid option.

Sturdy stainless steel handset, Great call quality

No 3G, Proprietary headphone port, No USB cable or CD in box

LG KE970 Shine Review

 

After conquering the mobile market with the Chocolate concept, LG Electronics needed something completely new and revolutionary to "refresh" its handset lineup. This came in the form of LG Shine, the second mobile phone in the Black Label series, which...

This is the rightful disciple of LG's Chocolate, therefore it has a classy look and average functionality. People that choose to buy LG Shine are mostly thrilled by its marvelous design and less interested by its technical specifications. Besides the...

Most of the "baddies" of the phone are software-related and were described above. I could not care less that LG made one of the best-looking devices on the market as long as its firmware has so many bugs (minor and major). Anyway, if we get past these,...

LG Black Label Series KE970 Review

 

To sum it up, the LG Black Label KE970 is über-high on style, but there are certain issues that need to be addressed. The price tag of Rs 12,990 is a little too much--there are better deals out there.

LG Shine KE970 Cell Phone Review

 

The LG Shine is a sharp-looking fashion phone with a mirrored screen and a slim slider design; the phone screen is underneath the mirrored surface on the front of the phone, so it can double as a pocket mirror and cell phone. Unfortunately, the Shine's...

We take a close look at the full metal body LG Shine KE970 mobile phone but is style alone enough to convince the buyer?

LG Shine KE970 Review - Slider - LG - Manufacturer - Reviews - WirelessInfo.com - Cell Phone Reviews and Wireless Plan Ratings

 

The LG Shine KE970 is a nice looking phone; the mirrored screen and clean design make it one of the most attractive phones that we've looked at. It wouldn't look out of place in the hands of a supermodel on the catwalk in Milan. But, like the...

LG KE970-Shine

 

The LG Shine is the latest phone from LG and is a part of their new Black Series line-up. The LG Shine is also known as the KE970 and in my opinion is the slickest and sexiest phone to be released by LG thus far. When the screen is off it looks...
