LG Electronics/

LG Electronics unveiled the successor to its popular Chocolate phone, the LG Shine. The new phone comes in a stainless steel casing but it’s only available in Korea at the present time. LG plans to expand its availability early next year.rnrn

The handset features a mirror-like front that hides the LCD screen. It also includes a 2-megapixel camera, expandable slot memory and an MP3 player.

A keyboard is hidden behind the slide. A scroll wheel on the front is made to make navigating easier.

Unlike the Chocolate, the camera lens is on the back of phone–not on the slide and not as protected. rnrn
