    CNET Review

    December 17, 2007

    The Good: The LG Shine CU720 is a very attractive slider handset with 3G support, a nice array of multimedia features, and good call quality.

    The Bad: The LG Shine CU720 has a tiny and very sensitive navigation joystick, plus a flat and crowded keypad.

    The Bottom Line: Though we had a few quibbles with the phone's design, overall we were pleased with the LG Shine CU720's impressive style and feature set.
