Review: LG Shine KE970 / KU970

.

Born To Shine

Yes its here why I dont know, we were all surprised, always have this feeling that this baby will only be here after LG Prada, but great seen its here early, this is LG Shine KE970

Lets open it up!

Wow we have loads of stuff here, phone, usb cable, charger, stereo headset, hand strip, battery, screen protector, 512MB microSD memory card, user guide, CD-ROM. Heard that only KE970 come with screen protector, 512MB microSD memory card, and that KU970 (3G) dont.

Front view, elegantly display its stainless steel soild body shinning it the air

Here camera button, MP3 button, volume buttons, charge and headset port

Top view, battery cover ctach button

This side got nothing

Buttom also nothing

The back cover is full metal, shinning brightly

The screen acts as a mirror when its at stand by mode


The slider of the phone is perfect, its smooth and sound of banging metal

Blue LED lights on buttons

Open up the cover, the memory slot is under the SIM slot

The screen are bright and sharp

You see that long metal rod above my thumb, its actually a roller or "jog dial" you just roll it up or down to select through all the options

This is the headset that come with the phone very interesting shape, but its not a remote control for the music player

With vloume control

Close up on the metal keypad

The back of the slider

Overall this is a very elegant, stylish phone. The MP3 button at its side come useful, just press it and you adtivate music to your ears, press it again it will hide the player in the back ground so you can do you sms or others. Surprisingly the camera is auto-focus with flash not bad for a 2MP phone. Well its a pretty to use phone, support T9 and chinese too. But same there is a limit in the name of every contact, the max name you are place is "Singaporeairline" this amount and if you name is "JackintheboxandRoseinthepot" well too bad you cannot save such a long name in your contact. Overall this phone is really neat if you are going for elegant mobile device and with such reasonable price for an elegant metal body phone its cool.
