Half red, half shine

LG Shine looked great in its metallic silvery case. The golden one seemed rather suitable for the more eccentric ones who like to show off. Now, a red version of this phone model appears, but it looks like it has lost some of its shine with it.

The new LG Shine phone version is set for an exclusive release in Korea, so there won't be a very high number of people to enjoy it. The red version holds nothing special over the previous ones, except for the color.

This new LG Shine is only half red and half silvery, which makes it look rather unusual. It surely makes it lose its elegance and that completely metallic shine which LG has so much prided with until now. Still, some might like this even better and prefer to give up on some of the phone's shine in exchange for a touch of color.

Aside from the new combination of colors, this new version holds nothing special when it comes to performances. It is still an accessory phone and this is why all the new color combinations have sprung out lately. It's all just to make sure that the ladies have a wide range of possibilities to choose from in order to fit their wardrobe.

LG Shine has been promoted right from the start as a stylish statement accessory phone. It comes at only 13.7 mm in thickness, which makes it one of the slimmest sliders available at this time. Moreover, the combination between stainless steel and mirror confers this phone an extremely sophisticated look and also adds a high amount of elegance. By introducing the red color in combination with this previous look, LG has taken some of the stylish appearance of the phone.

The red version of LG Shine will be released only in Korea. Its price should be just the same as that of the original version, depending on the carrier.
