Called “Shine”, the LG KE970 definitely lives up to its name. This mobile phone is something that will catch everyone’s eyes, namely because it doesn’t look like any other phone on the market today. Made out of stainless steel, the Shine offers a truly luxurious and sophisticated exterior. The engineers who designed this phone had to overcome many technical obstacles to come up with a functional device that is made out of real metal.

Still, the LG KE970 Shine is more than just a glamorous cellular phone. It’s minimalistic design also offers users a functionality and ease of use never seen before. The micro scroll key allows owners to access a maximum number of features and literally provides convenience at the fingertips. Additionally, the 2.0 megapixel auto focus camera is Schneider-Kreuznach certified and micro SD external memory enables more data storage than one is typically used to enjoying in a phone. Still, with as much internal memory as this phone has, it’s doubtful that it’ll be needed.

The 2.2 inch wide LCD screen (240 x 320 pixels) is half mirrored to both complete the design and maximize the brightness of the 262,000 colors that can be viewed. The contents of the massive screen can be seen from several different angles, thanks to multi-angle vision technology. Bluetooth compatible for hands free chatting, this slider phone weighs in at under 120 grams and will be anything but a burden to carry.

On standby, the LG KE970 Shine’s battery will last up to 280 hours. Since the phonebook holds up to 1,000 different individual entries, there will always be room for even the most popular socialite to save more numbers. All in all, the beauty of this cell phone is much more than skin deep. A fantastic and stylish buy, Shine sticks out in the mind.
