The LG Shine for AT&T features a 2.2-inch, 256K colours, 240 x 320 pixels LCD display, a 2MP camera, 70MB of internal memory, microSD memory port with 4 GB support, Music player ( MP3, WMA and AAC ), Bluetooth, Multi-Angle Vision Technology ( view display from all angles ), Mobile email, . It measures 100 x 50.5 x 15mm, and weighs 115 g.

So, how well does the Shine…uh…..shine? Pretty well actually but it is apparent that this is meant to be a simple and stylish handset. It definitely looks great and feels solid both closed and opened, packs plenty of online applications to make use of its 3G capabilities, has a great camera, and strong performance to top it all off. Get past its small keys and slightly odd layout and it really is a good handset.

I just got this phone today, and I really like it. I wanted a phone that was better for texting, and even though this phone doesn’t have the best keyboard, it still has alot of amazing features. Everything is so clear and crisp. And i love the camera, the camera on my other phone was awful. And I love how you can edit photos. The only negitive things are the keyboard and the little joystick thing, it’s way to sensitive. Other than that I like it, even though it’d be way better if it were gold.
