 Nice Basic Phone February 26, 2008
I've had the LG Shine for about 3 months now and it has lived up to what I expected from it.
Pros:
* Very nice design and a sturdy feel.
* Battery Life is pretty decent. It lasts about 5 days on stand by which includes 2 hrs of talk time during those 5 days.
* The camera is good for a cell phone. No zoom though.
* No problems installing and recognizing a 2GB micro SD card.
Cons:
* Transferring data via bluetooth is virtually impossible. I fought with it for about 2 hrs with no luck. It connects to my computer but the "LG Phone Manager" software still cannot recognize it.
* I can't seem to adjust the microphone volume levels. Often people I talk to would not be able to hear me well unless I raise my voice. I've had no such problems with my previous phone.
So so:
* The software on the phone is responsive but the user interface is definitely not intuitive and takes time adapt.
Overall this is a very decent slide phone and if you just need a phone to talk and take an occasional average quality picture I would recommend it.

Despite the fact that AT&T is the carrier and it has a few drop calls once in a while, I am very happy with the LG CU720 Shine phone. Not only is it a handsome phone, it has a lot of useful features: It's a 3G phone which allows me to connect to the internet, Yahoo, MSN, AOL, IM and email ready. So you can connect to those directly if you already had an account. I can do video calls with any 3G phones (though I have yet done that), it has a great 2.0MegaPixel camera, has a mp3 player (tried and sounded great in fact). It is XM radio ready (need separate subscription for 8.99 I think). It can play video too, I mean music videos, movie trailers..etc. It has a beautiful, large screen (screen protector is recommended, it costs me maybe like 7.99 for two pieces online -- Clarivue). It supports SDMicro card too. So, you can expand the memory easily. So if iPhone costs $400 with 2 years contract, I has got this Shine phone for free with 2 years contract. I have made a really good deal!
There are numerous type of connections that I know of: GSM / GPRS / EDGE / UMTS / HSDPA, which literally means I can connect to the internet everywhere. What it makes so convenient about the phone with internet, apart from checking email, is that I can find a restaurant phone, a local map easily. I use it almost like a GPS. I have even downloaded the google map, and I can search for directions.
Games: I don't play a lot, but I am surprised to see that I am surprised to see the games available on the phone - Pacman, Tetrix - I also downloaded Bombsweeper (the anicent window game), Snake, Hangman, Video Poker, Bomber...etc (for free online - Getjar). I am in my 30s, it's just cool to see all old school games!
A lot of useful tools came with the phone, like world time, tips calculator, measure conventor, notepad...etc. Can also download a lot of other application for free at Getjar.
At first, I thought maybe I am just over-excited with this handsome new phone because of its look, but lately I do notice I am using the features it offers as well. That's more important. I don't wanna change my phone for a while.

Ill start with the obvious, this phone looks amazing, youll have everyone asking, "what kinda phone is that". But besides that great feature, it plays mp3, u can organize songs by artist, album, playlist and so on, i recomend u get atleast a 1 gb micro sd, on my micro sd i can put mp4 videos and the phone will play them widescreen, the speakers are fair not too loud, it also has a bunch of great tools, amazing camera its alot better than most 2mp cameras, also records video, but offcourse all this stuff really eats the battery so if u like playing music and stuff ull be chargin ur phone like every 3 days but it jsut call people itll go almost a week without a charge.

This phone is very nice, although I had better reception with my Motorola RZR.
I have full reception on the LG and it says No Service Available???!
Amazing. Phone up to date on bill, and yet, full reception, and not being able to use it???
Horrible. The keys are my only problem, as I love to text, with even my tiny hands I have
issues with the buttons being too small and very flat. That is my only peeve.
Reception and The buttons. Bad LG...Bad!
