The LG G Pad 8.3 is a small tablet with an 8.3 inch, 1920 x 1200 pixel display, a 1.7 GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 quad-core processor, and 2GB of RAM. It’s a third of an inch thick and weighs less than 12 ounces, and it’s now available for purchase in the US.
Best Buy is selling the LG G Pad 8.3 online for $350. It’s expected to be available in retail stores in early November.
The tablet has 16GB of storage and a microSD card slot for up to 64GB of removable storage. it has a 5MP rear camera and a 1.3Mp front-facing camera.
The LG G Pad 8.3 features WiFi and Bluetooth, packs a 4600mAh battery, and runs Google Android 4.2.2 Jelly Bean with a few extra LG touches including software that lets you switch between apps with a 3-finger swipe, or turn on your tablet by tapping the display twice — the same way you would with an LG G2 smartphone.
LG’s tablet also includes QPair, a utility that lets you sync certain apps on an LG G Pad 8.3 with an LG smartphone. For instance you can see recently opened apps, incoming calls, and other data from your phone on the tablet.
I like that it’s a great device, but it’s priced a bit too high to compete, especially when LG doesn’t have the brand power that Apple or Samsung has. Therefore people on the fence will pay a few dollars less and buy the iPad Mini; those that prefer Android will go for the Nexus 7 or the Note 8.
hoW WILL this fare with Samsung Note 8.0 because I very desire Spen feature. I am tempted to buy this and sell my Note 8.0
