LG Shine II announced

Boy, has South Korean companies come a long way since they started industrializing the nation a few decades ago. Remember back in the day when people shunned Korean handsets like Samsung and LG due to their perceived poor build quality?

Guess we’re all guilty of it some point or another, as the pressures of work do remain at the back of our heads most of the time wherever we are.
