With its speedy and reliable performance, the LG G Pad 8.3 is a solid small-sized tablet, but it can't outpace the smoother, less expensive Google Nexus 7.
LG is on an upward trajectory in the world of consumer electronics and its increasingly popular smartphones are the main driving force behind this growth. But, while smartphones are very important, the Korean manufacturer just couldn't ignore anymore the ...
Abstract: Aaron takes a look at the LG G Pad 8.3 , a new tablet from LG that closely resembles the LG G2. Specifications include a 1.7 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 600 CPU, 8.3-inch display, 5-megapixel camera, 16 GB of internal storage, Wi-Fi capabilities, and Android...
The LG G Pad 8.3 is a very cool tablet. Without a doubt, its main differentiating factor is the premium design, which is unrivaled by any other Android tablet so far. With its slim profile and high-quality materials involved in its construction, the G ...
I tried this model at IFA in Berlin, where LG is not showing off the final version of the tablet, but a version with unfinished software -- although I did not encounter any flaws on the software while testing the prototype. Build and Design What is more i...
Although the 8.3-inch screen makes the G-Pad larger than the Nexus 7, the gorgeous design more than makes up for the increase in size. It's a mixture of rounded plastic and brushed metal, and qualifies as one of the most alluring Android slates we've yet seen. It's also incredibly thin and light, which are ideal qualities for this kind of device.The full HD IPS LCD screen meanwhile is incredible,
The LG G-Pad 8.3 doesn't do much wrong, but it would have been nice to have had a more powerful chipset beating at its heart. The Snapdragon 600 included here is capable, but the 800 is now doing the rounds and would have future-proofed the slate for longer. There are moments when the tablet struggles to keep up with your inputs, usually when other background tasks are taking place. On the whole,
It's truly remarkable how far the Android tablet sector has come in recent months, and the LG G-Pad 8.3 is arguably one of the best small-screen slates we've seen so far. The larger screen, better design and expandable memory all help it put the Google...
Great design, fantastic screen, good battery life, expandable storage
Not running the latest version of Android, processor could be better
If you're in the market for a small-scale tablet device and the Nexus 7 hasn't taken your fancy, then the G-Pad 8.3 is definitely a solid choice. The design is appealing, the screen is pin-sharp and there's enough power under the bonnet to keep most use...

Abstract: The Nexus 7 (2013), LG G Pad and Lenovo Yoga Tablet 8 are all small and cheap tablets, but which one should you buy? Find out in our Google Nexus 7 vs LG G Pad 8.3 vs Lenovo Yoga Tablet 8 comparison review. Here are three similarly sized and priced table...
The G Pad 8.3 is undoubtedly LG's best tablet to date and at £199 it's a bit of a steal. A nice selection of hardware and software make this a great choice for a small tablet. However, occasionally laggy performance means the Nexus 7 might be a better cho...
