LG Shine looks nice when it’s new; however, the screen will be full of scratches if you are not extremely careful. Every fingerprint stays on a screen also.

For t he rpeceding reviews go to ebay and buy a screen protector. The phone is awesome. Buttons are hard to navigate if you have fat fingers, joystick hard to maneuver as well. Screen does get dirty as we know. Battery dies out form all the features running. Overall there is more good than bad.

I have the LG Shine. Worst phone I have ever owned…. It worked great for about a month then the screen will freeze EVERY time I open it. I have to keep the phone closed, press a button, unlock it, the open the phone in order for it to not freeze right away. Texting…when you start texting the screen will not update with what you are doing. Say I want to type Hi. I would have to hit H, close the phone to see that I did hit H, open the phone, hit i, close the phone and then send. ATT has been no help either in the problem.

The LG Shine is the greatest phone I have EVER bought. I completely recomend it to anyone looking for a strong multimedia phone. The pictures are great, the other features are useful, and I have had no problems with the call quality. And of course, there is no beating its low price. GREAT PHONE.

Absolutely 100 percent, a piece of garbage. Its heavy, it freezes, the antenna is in the same place as the mic is, it drops calls even in great signal, if you do happen to leave the service area and come back in, 9 times out of ten you have to reset the phone to get it back into service, At first i thought it was just the phone i got so i called att and made them send me another one… same exact issues, if you dont have a memory card than transferring data to a pc or mac is nearly impossible. if you are using a mac and transfer any data to it and then try to access the data with the phone, it restarts. and then you cant delete the files because it restarts it as soon as you touch the file, so the only way to get rid of those files is to do the phone reset. the only thing cool about this phone is that it has the 3g and can easily be tethered to the mac or pc for use as a wireless modem/card that can be used via the bluetooth or the usb. Continuing with how crappy the phone itself is, the pictures usually come out blurry and unusable though it claims to have a 2 mp camera. Thats actually funny because if you take a full quality picture with it then check the file size its usually only about 500-900 kb which is less than 1 mega pixel, and if you do have a card and can transfer it to your computer the quality is wretched and frustrating. i actually forwent the pruchase of a new digital camera because i thought hey a 2megapixel camera phone with flash and video, awesome. it took me about 2 days to realize the horrible mistake i had made. It is just as crappy if not more than the chocolate. Any one who recomends this phone for purchase based on its multimedia features or its overall functionality, must be someone who just upgraded from a phone with 0 functions, like something from 2002. I did what i seriously recommend anyone do and by an iphone. it is the future of cell technology and has already outsold blackberry and palm combined, might has well own one now. Dont make the same mistake i did. leave the shine for the people who have no idea what a functional phone really is.

I like that it’s has a solid case, way better than most cheap phones.. it takes more of a beating than any other. but thats about it, It wont let me use a normal MP3 as a ringtone and the contact list is in the phone, not the card (CDMA network).
If Chuck Norris was a Cell Phone, He would kick the LG Shine up where the Sun don’t shine.
Would you like fries with that?

Mine sucks too. Drops alot of calls. Definitely scratched all up. I do like the camera.

I’m having problems with my bluetooth. I just bought a brand new laptop that is bluetooth enabled and my PC can’t find the driver software on my phone. I can add and connect my phone to my PC, but that’s it. What do I do? My phone didn’t come with a CD, do I have to download the software from AT&T or the LG website? Can someone please help?

Phone has ben alright other than freezing up at times, and the peice that covers the battery charger insert is very difficult to get of. I broke it off as soon as i bought it.

OK. instead of all of you Stupid asses bitching about your phones. Why not go back to school and learn basoc sentence structure !
September 15th, 2008 at 10:58 pm
Um, wondering reader, why don’t you? Go back and learn BASIC sentence structure, as well as how to spell.

December 15th, 2008 at 7:00 pm
ok phone but the ringtone thing does suck realy bad. you can mail them to your self to set them to individuals though, just not all calls
January 8th, 2009 at 9:48 pm
The battery life on this phone is terrible,only 2 days at the most and thats not even using it.I also think the ringtone thing is stupid,I have tried everything and I cannot get any ringtones so I am stuck with the ones it came with. If anyone has found a solution for this please post.
March 23rd, 2009 at 8:26 pm
yeah I have it..Im kinda upset that you cant download free games from the internet. bu t I did figure out the ringtone thing. I just took a Mp3 that I wanted. Cut it down in a sound editing program and put in on the phone..it works perfectly too
April 8th, 2009 at 8:32 pm
I really like this phone actually. I like the style and I haven’t had any problems with scratches or what not. Fingerprints on the screen… it happens, they make screen protectors for that… plus it isn’t a touch screen so there isn’t much reason to touch the screen even if you have to open it. Anyway, the only problem I have run into is the game issue. I have no problem with ringtones or photos, it’s just games. I’m trying to figure out something with that but all of the forums I go to doesn’t seem to help. *shrugs* But, other than that I think the phone is pretty good! I haven’t experienced some of the issues from other comments such as dropping calls in great signal or terrible battery life. lol Maybe I’m just lucky. *shrugs*

actually u can get free games on the lg shine i just got one just go to mobilerated.com

Man, I see alot of bad reviews, but this is the best phone for the price I have ever owned. Had mine for three or four months now, I keep it in a case on my belt instead of my pocket and there are no scratches, does not drop calls always loud and clear, love the media package. again, a great phone.

I have the LG Shine CU720. I find it’s a great phone, besides the fact that I can’t put my own ringtones on it. I am trying to convert it to a gm file but I can’t find any websites that will let me do that! Other than that and the screen which is impossible to see in the sun, I think this phone is pretty good. It does not break easily from what I can tell. I have dropped my down a flight of stairs and it still seemed to be functioning properly. I also think the camera on the front and the back is a good idea too, and most phones don’t have that!
