Great for reading – 8.3 inch screen opens up web pages, QPair integration with your phone works really well, Nice bright screen with reasonable viewing angles and slim bezels, Knock-on eliminates the need to hunt for the power button, Micro SD storage exp
Lower pixel density than a Nexus 7 makes it feel cheaper, Transition from LG's UI to Android apps is a but jarring, CPU feels like it's struggling to keep up, sometimes stutters, Android 4.2, with no upgrade in sight (unless you get a Google Play Edition)
There's no easy way to say it – the G Pad has been a confusing mess of high points and low. LG has excelled in some areas, and completely missed the mark on others. It's a contradiction that feels like it's been brought in to-budget rather than to-quality...

Charged by the microUSB standard and not something proprietary; Very versatile overlay to Android, making it a tablet tweaker's dream, just like the LG G2 smartphone; Comfortable in the hands with not just plastic, but also metal incorporated in the desig
LG's QPair phone linking solution works with any Android phone via the app, but it doesn't do enough; Remote control functionality isn't anywhere near as extensive as what appears on LG smartphones;
In many ways, the LG G Pad is exactly what Samsung's 8 inch Galaxy Tab should have been, with a big beautiful screen and feeling like it was engineered to survive the rigours of life with more than just plastic on the back. It's not totally the iPad kille...
LG's G Tab 8.3 is a worthy new entry in the tablet market that can comfortably sit along side brands that have been in the market for years.The device is well-built and offers high-end performance and a screen size that will appeal to a wide range of user...
Strong design, Great full HD display, Storage expansion
No 3G/4G option, Poor camera, Average battery life
Would we recommend the LG G Pad 8.3? Yes. It's a great tablet which offers a wide array of features and a beautiful screen at a price which pips Apple's latest offering. If you're in the market for a smaller sized tablet then the Google Nexus 7 is still ...
Abstract: Most consumer electronics vendors have tried their hand at an Android tablet, many of them unsuccessfully. While LG globally launched the 3D-capable Optimus Pad back in 2011 (with little fanfare), the G Pad 8.3 marks the first time the company has release...
Good battery life, Excellent screen, Competitive price
LG's software is overwhelming, Poorly positioned speakers, Mediocre cameras
The LG G Pad 8.3 Android tablet offers decent battery life, an excellent display, and reasonable performance for a competitive asking price. However, LG's software can be overwhelming and confusing if you're a first time user...
