This phone would be awesome if only there was some way to change from the 4 dodgy ringtones that come with it. Due to that one flaw I am not all that happy with spending the 200 bucks on this phone. If anyone has any way of fixing this problem, please post it here.

Just got my mobile (unlocked), great features, stylish, & people are like Wow, what kind of phone is that? I guess that'll happen when you're basically the only one around with it. Love being in that exclusive group!

No FM radio on this phone, I miss that, but nice features, LOVE the fact that it automatically locks the keypad, Interesting default ringtones, too bad can't change from the 4 SMS tones, but I am sure that will change with some sort of firmware update.

Battery life seems a little low. Charged last night, & taken off charger at midnight, now only 2 bars left at 1400, might be due to me playing with it, but others seem to have issues with a lazy battery.

Good signal, but does have issue inside my work, where my other phone doesn't. Chalked that off to being from EU.

Camera is a little slow on capturing images, It'll grab the picture but save the blur of movement a moment after instead. I haven't had a chance to play with the video yet, but great features! The flash is amazingly bright, turned it on & nearly blinded myself checking.

Have not checked yet to see if it will play my MP3's as ringtones yet, but it should. I have little use for Bluetooth, so might be okay with it being slow.

Otherwise, fantastic phone! WOW!

I've got SMS on this phone, but it is saved in my phone, not SIM, does anybody knows how to change SMS saving to SIM CARD?

I had it since October 2007 & it was thrilling to have this mobile phone. I like the design, it's so exclusive, the metallic case, the shiny screen.

For the US$ 200 mobile phone I thought that it has great features in it.

Although you must put on the screen guard, too bad if the shiny screen had a scratch on it.

One more, It fell a few times but it's still OK. :).

Anyone HERE who thinks that this phone is BAD. It's not bad. It's a nice sleek elegant phone. If you got something to say go & complain to the LG manufactures. This phone is BRILLIANT & I am getting it soon. The design is EXCELLENT & attractive.

Okay, I have had this phone for some time now. The camera quality is great (much better outdoors). Despite what others say, I have had no problems with the sound. I find it is loud enough. I like the navigation, except I could not stand the grid menu (I changed mine to list).

I would have rather had the 'call end' button on the front of the phone where the cancel button is. I found myself fumbling for a button to exit out of web browser. (on the side, the off button).

Great design, & for a hint, leave the screen guard on! The shine is not a friend of keys or coins!

Overall, great phone, should have come with the data cable though. Retails at $200 here in Aust.

I am thinking of getting a mobile phone in a couple of days & this one is one of the ones I am considering. Does anyone know the average price of this phone?

The previous comment have been saying how slow the Bluetooth works if this is the case how slow is it, does it take 10 seconds to load or?

Regards to the makers of this website.

Reviewer: Jeremy - Louisville, US

Great phone. The features are amazing. The network coverage in my area hasn't quite caught up to allow me to use all the features.

Reviewer: Jade - Jeddah, Saudi Arabia
Date: 2nd Mar 2008

At its current market price, it's just but fair enough for the design & usability. I didn't go through yet with all its features as I just bought my unit 3 days back, but these things I just found out. Keypad is hard to press, Bluetooth is relatively slow & difficult to use outdoor especially under the sunlight. It's good I am using it only for my alternative. At the scale of 1 to 10, I rate it 7.5.

Reviewer: Mobile Phone Junkie - Toronto, Canada
Date: 22nd Dec 2007

One of the best slim phones I have seen, everything is great but:

1) Bad message tones that you cannot add to
2) Horrible reception in greyer zones

Reviewer: Jas - Singapore
Date: 20th Dec 2007

Just bought this phone (gold edition). I got it at a roadshow for $240 plus with a 1 GB Micro SD Slot. Here are my reviews!

Plus points.
- Sleek design.
- Good camera quality (after all there are certified lens just like the other 2 LG Shine models).
- Affordable price.
- Easy to understand navigations without the need of a manual.

Bad points.
- Keypad hard to press.
- no 3G or 3.5G function!
- A tad too shiny (but that can ignored since it is a Shine Series)

Oh & if you see that you only get numbers instead of your friends names, try transferring contacts from Phone to SIM card! if not vice versa, I forgot which it is has.

Reviewer: Uncle Ken - Chiangmai, Thailand
Date: 14th Dec 2007

I am confused by the number of negative reviews (especially the poor sound, which I found to be very good). I've had the phone for 3 days & it has been very good. Actually, I had intended to buy a Nokia, but saw this on my way out of the store & after checking all the particulars I bought it, at a good price. The features are great (maybe because I had a rather simple phone before) & it's amazing what has been packed into so little space. My only complaints [ (so far) are: (1) it's a bit slippery to handle, & (2) the antenna at the bottom is a poor choice because your palm covers it when holding the phone. Until I learn otherwise, I think it's a very good to very very good mobile phone.

Reviewer: Ong Kae Uei - Singapore
Date: 9th Dec 2007

After looking at the others reviews & using the phone, it is not a good phone, but the design is quite suitable for me & the Bluetooth is too slow, only version 1.3.

Reviewer: Ali - Karachi, Pakistan
Date: 2nd Dec 2007

Good points.
- Best value for money in the comparable price range.
- Very pretty & sleek.

Bad points.
- A bit slow.
- User interface needs improvement.
- Camera could be better.
- Built in speaker is horrible.
- Can't change menu theme & message ringtones.

Suggestion, increase the price by 10 percent but improve on the bad points & you would have the best phone in its class.

Got it yesterday. Nice phone. Let's hope that it doesn't give any battery related problems. There's one flaw though, the sound quality is not good at all :(.

Reviewer: Theruni Wijeweera - Suban Jaya, Malaysia
Date: 15th Oct 2007

Good looking phone. But I have a problem with choosing between this & the k970. Which is better? I want a light weight phone, don't mind a low number of applications & MP3 are always on my iPod so no worries. So both the phones fit the bill. Some help please?

Reviewer: Bootrecord - Doha, Qatar
Date: 15th Oct 2007

Nice design, regular features, hard to use key pad, especially at night when not enough light available.

I can't say I can rely on it much as a heavy day to day use, I am using it for my second number, which I don't use a lot, but I have to be online always.

Reviewer: Olle - Estonia
Date: 1st Oct 2007

The looks of this phone is great & that's it. Speaker plays music poorly, the ringtones sound really quiet & there's no features what so ever. I am going to get rid of it as fast as I can.

Reviewer: Anon - Singapore
Date: 30th Sep 2007

Nice phone to look at. Never really works. Function are super slow & clumsy when switching between phone & MP3. Will try to get the service centre to assist, hopefully it can function as expected.

---

Reviewer: Kristi - Canada
Date: 26th Sep 2007

I just got this phone. I really like the look of it but I am having problems with the volume. With every ringtone it starts off really quiet when it rings then slowly increases to really loud. Is there a way to change this? Please let me know!

Reviewer: Mark - Thailand
Date: 18th Sep 2007

This was the nicest looking phone on the market when I bought it. It's also solid with features. However, the navigation is probably the worst I've experienced in a mobile phone. A big company like LG should pay more attention to software.

There are some useful features, such as a single button to open the camera or music player, but that's the end of the convenience. Navigation is clumsy & certain simple options are not available unless you go right back to the original menu screen, it takes a lot of button presses to do certain tasks.

Its design is good & truly inspirational mirror effect screen, I like it.

Reviewer: James - Indonesia
Date: 2nd Sep 2007

It's a good design mobile phone, but. (I compare it with another brand mobile phone with the same specs at the SAME PRICE, SAME SLIM DESIGN, same 2MP camera, MP3 player, GPRS, edge, external memory slot, Bluetooth, casing from metal, java, etc.)

5 NEGATIVE POINTS:
- TOO SLOW TO ON THE PHONE!
- The Bluetooth only 1.2 ver. Slow.
- The exit button for application or web is hard to find (which is the small on/off button).
- The SMS ringtones are poor (can't use my own tones& only 4 tones to choose).
- Camera quality is terrible, compare to other 2MP camera phone (I mean the result).
- Phone colour quality is NOT that Good, 'SHINE' & Bright enough. (The competitor can SHOW 16m cool.)

The phone is so slim & that's so good. The sound is average. I can recommend this mobile if you want to have a small & slim phone in your pocket.

Reviewer: Anon - Taiwan
Date: 1st Aug 2007

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!

Reviewer: Jogja - Indonesia
Date: 16th Jul 2007

This phone is like entering into the future. I use a normal Nokia & the difference is enormous. I like the fact that the screen is bigger & I did not think that it would be the case, but really enjoyed it. To be honest I like it all & think this is a great product.
