LG CU720 Shine: A $50 Slider Phone, Compact Mirror or Both?

Have you ever used your cell phone as a flashlight? If so, don’t be shy about admitting it. I do it all the time.

Now what about using your cell phone for cosmetic purposes as a compact mirror? While that’s not practical for yours truly, the mirror-polished faceplate of the LG CU720 Shine slider phone for AT&T actually does shine in such a way that you could.

Also, it’s a 3G phone for high-speed data transfer (unlike its Asian and European counterpart). Perhaps even better yet, the LG CU720 Shine multimedia slider is also a budget cell phone that can be yours for only 50 bucks.

That said, you should be aware of some design and navigation foibles. Read my full analysis of the LG CU720 Shine here.
