LG Shine

I purchased this phone and returned it a month later and the reason was terrible signal. I wouldn't get calls or sometimes the phone wouldn't even ring, even if I had a decent signal. But the phone was nice and I liked it's slider mechanism a lot, even it's screen was bright and beautiful.

Nice phone with sleek design that makes you look cool. I've started liking this phone very much, it has good camera and the slider mechanism works very well. Metal body looks nice and the feature I liked a lot was MobiTV. Battery backup is bad.

I needed a phone a phone with high volume and Shine provides good volume. Nice looking phone with 2MP camera that captures good quality pictures. Things that annoyed me were the button to navigate between functions is too small and very difficult to use and it routinely dropped my calls.

It's looks stylish with nice features, good camera and we can personalize ring tones. In the beginning I was very much excited about Shine but as I started using it I came across some flaws like poor reception, joystick delays low quality speaker phone and ring tone volume varies.
