The main differences between the seemingly identical KE970 and the U970 is the lack of a microSD card reader in the U970 and the addition of HSDPA and a front camera for videoconferencing.

Specifications

With up to 261 hours of standby time, the LG Shine offers SMS, EMS, MMS, and Email. Accessories include a travel adapter, strap, stereo headphones and inline remote/handsfree kit and a USB data kit.

Features

The phone has a stainless steel full metal body with a half-mirror screen. The front of the phone appears to be a mirror when the screen is off. [1] When the phone is closed there is a multi-functional scroll key.

The phone can also be used as a camera, with a dedicated button for taking pictures. The maximum resolution for pictures is 1600x1200 px. [2] The camera has auto focus certified by Schneider-Kreuznach.

The phone can be charged with the included proprietary USB cable [3] which plugs into the only port on the phone, making it impossible to use the included headset while charging, although it is still possible to use the phone while charging.

Stereo camera camera with two or more lenses for capturing stereo views

A stereo camera is a type of camera with two or more lenses with a separate image sensor or film frame for each lens. This allows the camera to simulate human binocular vision, and therefore gives it the ability to capture three-dimensional images, a process known as stereo photography. Stereo cameras may be used for making stereoviews and 3D pictures for movies, or for range imaging. The distance between the lenses in a typical stereo camera is about the distance between one's eyes and is about 6.35 cm, though a longer base line produces more extreme 3-dimensionality.
