LG G Pad 8.3 is a high quality tablet released in September 2013, which counts with an exceptional Quad-Core processor clocking at 1.7 GHz, a 8.3-inches display, a 5 megapixels back facing camera and a 1.3 megapixels front side camera. Let's take a better view of what this device can do.

The LG G Pad 8.3 is just 0.33" thick, making its way into the thinnest tablet devices podium. While this device is only 8.54 inches long and 4.98 inches wide, it's still able to fit a a 8.3" display. LG made this tabletavailable only in 2 color options, black and white. It appears that LG decided not to care so much about the weight in this 11.92 oz tablet.

LG packed this tablet with a good looking 8.3 inches screen, and a 1200 x 1920 resolution, giving this portable tablet a good level image quality. This screen uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, and can detect multiple fingers at the same time.

This tablet is powered by an extremely powerful 1.7 gigahertz Quad-Core CPU, bundled in a Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 system chip and a huge 2 GB of RAM. This tablet has a 16 GB quite large internal memory and a slot for an external memory card, allowing the user to store hundreds of games and applications without any trouble.

This tablet is equipped with two cameras, a 5 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 1.3 mega-pixels front camera. It also captures videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 frames per second. Additionally, the camera has a few useful features like HDR mode, auto-focus and geo tagging.

The LG G Pad 8.3 provides wi-fi connection (and it can provide it to other devices acting as a mobile hotspot) and 4G LTE high speed data connection. This tablet doesn't use a sim card, because it isn't a GSM enabled tablet.

This tablet also comes with a few cool features like Infrared Port, Bluetooth and GPS Localization, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

The LG G Pad 8.3 counts with a 4600 mAh great Li-Polymer battery providing the LG G Pad 8.3 an amazing battery life.

The LG G Pad 8.3 may not be a very good choice considering it is sold for $ 180, while some similar tablets are sold for a bit less than that. No matter if you are looking for a gamer tablet, want a social tablet, want a work tablet device or want this tablet to take tons of photographs, this portable tablet is the correct choice .
