This phone was the biggest waste that L.G. could have made!!! the screen flashes on and off. it freezes. the buttons are so small that if find my self canceling messages or calls. i have the worst reception compared to another at&t phone. atleast a few times a day my phone will throw some crazy code as and excuse not to do something. that stupid joy stick thing is annoying!!! this is my second shine the first one did the same crap and they sent me a replacement that was worse than the one i sent them!!! it may take good pictures but isn't worth the headache that comes with it.

Ok I've had mine for over a year, I've thrown it at the wall, dropped it on concrete and it still works as good as the day I got it. I dont know what kind of shine everyone else got but mines great. plus it's memory holds alot.!! The only real problem I have is Leaving it on all the time. As long as I turn it off once in a while the battery holds and it doesnt turn off by it's self

Mkay, I've had this phone for a little over a year and I'm starting to hate this phone.. The screen is cool at first, but scratches really easy and it looks crappy now.. Second, the battery life is horrible. Yeah, I probably do close to 1,000 texts a day but around 600 messages it will be at low battery. I charge it everynight and sometimes a second time in the middle of the day. Its horrible. Some of my buttons don't click, you just brush it and it registers so it makes texting hard to do. So if you text or call alot, I wouldn't reccomend this phone to you.

4. 1 YEAR AND DONE!

I have had the LG Shine for a little over a year and it sucks! I loved the phone for the first few months but after that it started messing up and get worse and worse as it gets older! The screen goes black all the time, it freezes, music and pictures take forever to load, HORIBBLE RECEPTION (where all other phones from at&t get service the shine will NOT), buttons are tiny, and joystick is super sensitive! I do like the camera, and look of the phone but thats about it. If I had it to do over agian I would not purchase this phone.

Ok I just got this phone this week, but I got the TU720 version, which has the two cameras. I got mine in pink and I absolutely LOVE it. The mirror finish is really great. I love it :D The sound isn't bad on the phone to me. I think it's really good actually. The phone doesn't smudge too bad, it's easy to just wipe off with a cloth. I keep mine in a case so it doesn't get scratched. The camera on this phone is also INCREDIBLE. It takes such amazing shots. I'm attaching some pictures I took with the phone as well.


 


Overall I definitely recommend this phone, especially over the SE W580.

Hmm....it heats up when it's charging.
I've had to charge it twice since I got it (I've had it for about four days now) but I do use the camera A LOT on it.

Pictures in the dark don't show up too great, even with the flash.

I have been satisfied with my Shine for the most part.  I bought it the day it came out.  It has a very eye-catching design.  I love the mirror, although it does scratch very easily.  I love slider phones.  My phone, and others who have the Shine say, shuts off by itself sometimes, which can be frustrating.  There is only one speaker that does not ring very loud at all (which is fine with me as I keep my phone on vibrate 99% of the time) Also, I don't think the phone receives signal very well.  I have a hard time getting a signal in places that my previous phone worked (RAZR), and also others in my house with different phones don't have the problem.  I've been satisfied with the Shine but I am definitely ready for a new phone when my upgrade comes in a few months.

9. Pretty Good Phone

This is not a bad phone. It has a nice camera and you can text easily. It has a microSD slot so you can play music (in which i do A LOT). The toggles a little hard to get used to, but I got used to it in about a week. About the only thing i can say that's bad about this phone is the battery life. But this mainly only happens when you talk on it. But i usually text more than talk so it doesn't bother me a lot. So I would reccomend this phone to someone.

This is a terrible phone!! I have had it for a little over a year now and I treat it very good, but it has ALOT of problems!!!


1. The screen freezes up... alot!


2. The bluetooth does NOT work!


3. The screen goes black very OFTEN!!... Not like the way it does when you leave it alone for a while. it goes black and stays black


4. It has TERRIBLE service!


5. It Drops calls ALOT... Sometimes it doesnt even ring when you are recieving a call and then it says 1 missed call.


6. The buttons are TINY!


7. The phone wiggles ALOT like side to side wiggling


8. When you try to send a picture it usually comes back with "Internal Error 22" or it say "No service" when you have service (No not just the icon for service, but the bars too)


Now the good things!!!!


1. Its durable 


2. It has a good camera


3. It has a nice look





Its in my review!!!!
the Cons are in my review too!!!
