Solid build quality with brushed metal surface on the back; glossy finish a beauty; HSDPA-enabled; Bluetooth stereo.
Response lag during scrolling; no expansion card slot; users restricted to only 512MB of onboard memory.
A worthy successor to the popular Chocolate series, the ultra-chic design of the KU970 will appeal to both sexes, but its average Joe feature set and dodgy scroll wheel dont impress. If you can forgo 3G and HSDPA connectivity, the KE970 looks like a bette...
Abstract: The LG Shine fashion handset was released in two distinct versions. Not long ago we reviewed the KE970 Shine. This time we turn our attention to the LG KU970 – the 3G version which is to be exclusively sold by Vodafone. They share the same metallic...
If style was all that mattered, the LG U970 obeys the rule to the letter. Mirrored surfaces, brushed metal, and a sleek design mean the handset will appeal to those with a penchant for elegant equipment to complement their designer handbags or tailore...
Cramped design makes dialing, messaging and even navigating menus difficult. Call quality should have been better, just like everything else on this phone.

Doubles as a funky mirror; lots of features; stellar camera; supports the latest connectivity options; easy-to-use interface.

The other applications are a rather standard affair with a calendar, calculator, a converter application and so forth. Everything is there, but there is very little wow factor when it comes to the pre-installed applications. However, the Shine has one...
Stylish design, Sturdy build, feature packed camera
Uncomfortable keypad, somewhat slow interface The Final Word The Shine is another fashion oriented camera that will appease many who are after a stylish handset, however some design and operation issues mean it isnt all it could be.
