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
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

Solid
The LG G Pad 8.3 has a lot going for it, including solid hardware and functional software. If I could return my Nexus 7 or sell it for a good price, then I would buy the LG G Pad 8.3 for myself. I am not a fan of the name though. I had a tough time com...
Next to the N7To me, the G Pad is an odd sort of device – it's a great size, looks good, and has decent performance, but yet it's still so hard to give it a full thumbs up. If you buy this tablet, you'll probably like it. If you're on the fence however...
Beautiful design and build quality, Lightweight and durable, Perfect size and footprint, Top-of-the-line display quality, QPair adds a whole new purpose to the Android tablet
The camera is still very much a tablet camera, Some might be turned off by LG's custom UI, which is far from stock Android, Lacks the ability to receive calls like the international model
LG quite simply has one of the best Android tablets available, with a price to match.The G Pad represents not only how far LG has come over the past few years, but also how much Android tablets have grown. Two years ago LG was futzing with 3D cameras and...

The LG G Pad 8.3 has a crisp full-HD display, a fast quad-core processor, and expandable memory
At $350, the Wi-Fi variant is steeply priced, and its design lacks a premium feel
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.
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...
