LG's New Black Label Cellphone: First Look

LG is following up the love-it or hate-it Chocolate, and the Shine, with its third "Black Label" device: the as-yet unnamed cellphone you can see here. It looks a more serious and slender beast than the first two, and sports a five megapixel camera, tempered glass and a carbon-fiber finish. Other than that we can't say much, as LG is being shy with the details: though I'm sure they'd call it "teaser marketing". More data will be available at its European April 24th launch. We'll keep you posted. [Aving]

LG Shine Arrives on AT&T

LG's shine has finally made it to the States in actual Shine form—as opposed to the Verizon flip version—and you can get yours for only $149 and two-year contract. We showed you what the phone looked like with our spy shots, but the above image is a closer (non-blurry) look at the phone before you buy it. To refresh, it's got a 2-megapixel camera and Bluetooth 2.0. [AT&T]

Dr. Light Alarm Clock Sheds Light on Your Circadian Rhythms

This one of the more misleading alarm clocks we've seen lately. The Dr. Light Alarm Clock lamp looks like its mother was an iPod and its father was some kind of Jetsons-imitating telephone. That doesn't mean this alarm clock/lighting instrument is without merit; it has LEDs lined up on its front to simulate dawn and dusk, playing tricks on your circadian rhythm so you can get to sleep and wake up easily, even if you've drunk a half-gallon of Jägermeister. Well, it's not a miracle worker, but at $25, what do you expect? [TFTS]

LG Shine Wood (Not Actually Made of Wood)

The LG Shine Wood LG-LB2500H, by all logical reason, should be made of wood. And while the Wood does sport a fine wood grain, users will be saddened to realize that no trees were killed in the making of this phone or its painted visage.

Other than that, this Korea-only phone sports goodies you will never be worthy of (like DMB television, an electronic dictionary and the near-magnetic attraction of pretty Korean models).

AT&T LG Shine Spy Shots

Our tipster didn't give us many details on this, but apparently the LG Shine—previously seen in flip-version on Verizon—is heading to AT&T. No real details here other than it's coming (including whether it's this black finish), but check out our previous Shine coverage to see if you're interested.

Verizon's LG VX8700 Reviewed (Verdict: A Decent and Shiny Multimedia Phone)

Even though we weren't that impressed with what was under the beautiful exterior of the LG Shine, Mark at Laptop Mag seems to like its brother, the VX8700, a bit more. He points out that it's definitely the sexiest V CAST phone on Verizon, even beating out the chocolatey VX8600. More »

Fake LG Shine: the Diamond KG70 Shine

LG isn't very happy about the Shine knock-offs that have been floating around, issuing cease and desist letters to manufacturers. But that isn't stopping the sale of the Diamond KG70 Shine (yet). More »

LG Shine Goes Candybar, Probably Still Meh

If our hands-on with the LG Shine slider was any indication, this Shine Bar may be a phone only fashionistas will pine for. The KE770 is only 9.9mm thick (compared with the 14mm of the regular shine) and has a 320x240 display, a 2-megapixel camera with auto-focus, Bluetooth, 50MB internal storage, microSD slot, and pretty much the same styling we've come to expect from the Shine label.

LG VX8700 Launched on Verizon: Good News

What timing. Yesterday, I reviewed the LG Shine long enough to give it a thumbs down. Today, Verizon launched the LG VX8700, the flip version of the same Shine with the same 2MP camera with design to die for and boring OS. The two share DNA, yet this one is worth considering. It's all about context. More »

My 24 Hours with the LG Shine: Shiny and Sucky

I apologize for all the buzz on the mirror-faced LG Shine over the last few months. Across the Internet, it looked good. At CES, when I touched it, it looked good. I have a LG Shine here, and after spending a day with it, I've decided that it really is gorgeous (see the pics). And that it sucks. Let me name the ways. More »

LG VX8700 Official for Verizon

The LG VX8700 Shine flipper gets official for Verizon, as we saw before. It's a part of the Shine family—the daddy Shine isn't making it to the states—but the entirely-covered-in-steel baby is. We're much more excited for Prada and Prada-like phones from LG, but some people love the Shine. – Jason Chen More »

LG Shine's Cousins Flip, Get Dipped in Gold

LG's popular Korean phone, the Shine, has not only been updated already, there's now two new versions planned for an eventual release. The first, a gold-dipped hedonistic version, should ship for Korea's CDMA networks first before (possibly) heading everywhere else with a GSM version. More »

LG Already Updates Shine: Looks The Same, But Adds HSDPA and VGA Camera

LG is already hard at work making the next version of the , the KU970. While the exterior will remain as Shiney as ever, LG adds 3G HSDPA and a VGA camera. LG has also bumped the internal storage capacity to 512MB. Other than that, it's the same Shine that we still don't have here. At this point, I'd rather LG just skip over the Shine and send us some Prada love. I hear the devil wears that nowadays. – Nicholas Deleon More »

High Quality LG Shine, LG Prada Gallery


Whether or not LG's Prada phone will run Windows Mobile 6 or not, you can't deny that it's a pretty damn sexy phone. Heck, the same could be said for the LG Shine as well. Here's a high quality gallery of the LG Shine and Prada phones. More »

David Blaine Pretends To Like LG Shine For Big Sacks of Money

LG Shine Makes its Video Debut


The girls at Shiny Shiny are still pink in the face after a quick rendezvous with LG's sexy, silvery Shine. Despite the phone's smudge-able looks, they found the Shine to be pretty resistant to fingerprints and scratches. The phone's spinning scroll wheel, located on its midriff, is also intuitive despite suffering from a bit of lag. Among the few things they didn't like were the phone's buttons, which they felt coulda been spaced out better. Otherwise, the Shine is building quite a Cassanova-like rep in the world of mobiles. – Louis Ramirez More »
