LG Shine will be soon competing with the colorholic phone

The LG Shine mobile phone has been extremely popular since its launch and has proved itself worthy of the successor title for the smashing hit that the Chocolate phone used to be. Although the sales numbers are not the greatest resemblance between the two models, when it comes to diversity, the two make a tough competition.

LG Shine has tried on several touches of color until now. It has been first released in a light gray metal. Then it turned gold, then red and eventually titanium black. Some proved to be shinier than others, although the phone's stylish design has kept its elegance. Now we have it in pink, although we can't say that anyone actually needed this new version of the handset.

There are so many handset producers and carriers that decide to paint successful models in pink that I can't help but wonder whether there is anyone from the tons of pink-lover buyers left without such a bright display of their passion. The pink version of LG Shine has high chances of taking away some of its elegance, as it usually happens, although scoring higher points when it comes to the "youth" and "crazy" features.

There is also sad news when it comes to the main feature of this slider phone. The high reflection capability that has managed until now to make this mobile phone stand out from many others has been lost, because of the pink paint. The lights on the front of the design have been changed in order to match the new color.

All previous performances that LG Shine was capable of reaching in its previous colors will be available in this one too, as Orange has made only a change of color. The price should stay the same, as pink paint shouldn't cost too much, especially when it cannot be considered a design upgrade, but just the opposite.
