The latest LG phone, the LG Shine is a great follow-up to the popular LG Chocolate. The Shine comes loaded with Bluetooth technology which is becoming the industry norm these days.

On first impression, you notice the stainless steel design. It is lightweight and durable, not to mention (not at all surprisingly) shiny and complemented with a brushed metal surface. LG have really found a winning design with this handset.

It’s an ultra sleek phone that doesn’t use the newest technologies but still packs a punch for the average user. This is however as good as it gets as far as new technologies go, no FM radio, digital zoom, flash for camera, or Wi-Fi. The lack of these features make the phone much cheaper, however, than its more expensive counterparts and there are some really great deals available from selected mobile phone retailers.

As far as any other complaints go, the basic memory built-in could be a little more generous, at a mere 70 MB. However, it is important to not get too picky as you can spend literally hundreds of pounds on a mobile if you wanted to and the Shine is actually available from free on a new contract.

There are a number of improvements from the LG Chocolate. First, the camera phone in the LG Shine is a full 2 mega-pixels worth of imaging and secondly there is an expandable memory slot included, which lets you increase your memory to a total of 2 Gigabytes worth of data.

If you are the type who wants a fashionable phone, great features, and a great price, this phone is for you.
