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
Perfect 8-inch screen size
Comfortable to hold
MicroSD slot for extra storage

Questionable availability
Childish overlay
Unimpressive camera
No 3G or 4G connectivity
Older version of Android
Small lags when quitting particularly big apps and returning to home screen
Front camera is very mediocre for video chats
LG's UX interface may not be to the liking of Android purists
Processor could be better
Music lacks energy
Autofocus is poor
Garish user interface
Expensive
A little on the heavy side next to the Nexus
We wish LG had dropped a £220 G Pad
Android tablet apps can't compete with the iPad
Average battery life
Some features are basic or lacking
Has to compete against the cheaper Nexus 7
Camera quality
Size won't suit all
Not running the latest version of Android

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
