Very good

Reviewed by Kent German
Review date: 3/22/07

The good: The LG Shine KE970 cell phone is certainly attractive. It also has decent call quality and a great camera.

The bad: The LG Shine KE970 has a flat, poorly designed dialpad, unintuitive Talk and End keys, and an average speakerphone. Battery life was somewhat low, and the mirrored front catches fingerprints easily.

The bottom line: Though it wasn't always easy to use, the LG Shine KE970 is a pretty phone with decent performance. We just wouldn't recommend paying full price.
