Display & Audio
The Shine has a 240x 320 screen resolution and measures 2.2 inches. The screen is capable of 256k colors and is TFT. The LG shine has a cool a display but like I mentioned earlier there is a huge glare when looking at it during the day. Another cool feature LG has added is the ability to make small flash files your background image. There are a couple saved in the phone and all look very cool. The Shine is great for listening to music. The Shine has expandable memory which allows you to input up to 2 GB of memory via the micro SD slot. The Shine also comes with amazing stereo headphones.
My favorite part about listening to music on the Shine is the built in remote control on the headphones. The remote has a send/end button for calls, back/next buttons to change tracks, play/pause, stop button and volume up/down control. There is also a hold button located on the side of the remote which stops you from accidentally pushing buttons. The headphones have a built in 3.5mm headphone adaptor so you can use any of your favorite headphones and are not limited to the ones the phone comes with. Overall the remote works great for music and the best part is that you do not need to keep pulling out the phone if you want to change tracks or play/pause the music.
Another key feature the Shine has is the MP3 shortcut button located on the right side of the phone. When you press and hold the MP3 button the music player opens. This way you don’t need to go to the phone menu in order to access the music player.
