LG Iron Man - gold plated Shine - Hands on at CTIA "08

If it was for sale it'd cost two grand. But it's not for sale. Well, maybe. It's the gold-plated Iron Man phone from LG - think Shine in red with extra bling.

Blog Entry: Upper crust: LG "cannot compete" in the low end market

LG has announced that they'll turn up their efforts to market high end phones in emerging markets this year, and that they're all but giving up on the lower end of the handset marketplace. Korea Times reported the story along with the news that the electronics giant launched the Venus-like KF600 handset in Brazil and China. ``We cannot compete with such industry leaders as Nokia and Samsung Electronics with low-priced phones. We have to set our sights on the market with phones worth...

LG KE970-Shine in-depth review - Introduction & Design

LG's KE970 "Shine" is one of the most gorgeous mobile phones - nay, one of the most gorgeous handheld objects - I've ever come across. I drooled over it at CES in Vegas this past January, and again at CTIA in Orlando in March. I tend to favor a combination of features and style in my gadgets, but from the moment I first saw Shine's TFT display emerge from beneath it's mirrored front panel, I was in love. It almost didn't matter what Shine had under the hood - I wanted to be near its beauty....

LG KE970-Shine in-depth review - Features

Features Shine boasts a solid feature set, and being an unlocked/unbranded handset, it ships without any "carrier deck" items (Cingular Music, Sprint TV, Verizon VCast, etc.). This is either a good or bad thing, depending on your perspective. From my point of view, it makes for a clean look and feel without a bunch of unwanted carrier logos. Most WAP-based carrier services can still be accessed by setting up browser bookmarks. Additionally, you can install certain...

LG KE970-Shine in-depth review - Display & Audio

DisplayI found the display - both its mirror front and its functionality - to be one of Shine's highlights. A 2.2" TFT panel, the display renders 262,000 colors across a 240x320 (QVGA) resolution. While this isn't the brightest screen you'll find on a mobile phone, and it does suffer somewhat in direct sunlight, I found Shine's display to be amongst the most pleasing I've laid my eyes upon in awhile. It could well be that I'm just charmed and mesmerized by...

Write your own LG Shine-CU720 Red review

Stylish and reliable

Pros: Sleek looking, sturdy feeling, good call reception, good photo quality

Cons: Kinda hard to see screen if it's really bright outside, touchy joystick

Summary: I just got this phone a week ago, and I have put it to the test! I has very good service on AT&T's new 3g network. Extremely user friendly. The sound quality while talking is great! (Just make sure you don't put your hand over the antenna which is the bottom of the phone!) The music setting is pretty nice, however it isn't compatible with MP4's which has created a problem for me. I love the look... (I got the red one) Overall a pretty good phone and I am extremely satisfied with it!
