What we like about Lg G Pad 8 0 WiFi (1GB + 16GB)

  • Comfortable and lightweight design with rounded edges that make it easy to hold for long periods.
  • Presence of a full-size USB port on certain models, which is rare for tablets and useful for connecting peripherals.
  • Expandable storage via a microSD card slot.
  • Useful software features like QPair for syncing with LG smartphones and a built-in IR blaster for use as a TV remote.
  • Clear and accurate display colors for media consumption.

What we don't like about Lg G Pad 8 0 WiFi (1GB + 16GB)

  • Sluggish performance due to a mid-range processor and limited (often 1GB) RAM, leading to lag during multitasking or app switching.
  • Limited internal storage, with some users reporting less than 3GB of free space after pre-installed apps.
  • Average to poor camera quality that lacks a flash, making it unsuitable for low-light photography.
  • Subpar audio quality from rear-facing speakers that can sound 'tinny' or distorted at high volumes.
  • Screen brightness is lower than many competitors, making it difficult to use in bright outdoor environments.

Verdict

The LG G Pad 8.0 WiFi (V480) is a compact budget tablet featuring an 8.0-inch IPS LCD with a 1280x800 resolution and a 4,200 mAh battery. It is powered by a 1.2 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, which is expandable via a microSD slot. Main pros include its lightweight, portable design with rounded corners for easy one-handed gripping and useful software features like QPair for smartphone syncing, Knock Code for security, and Dual Window for multitasking. However, it suffers from dated performance that can lead to app-switching delays, a low-resolution display compared to rivals, and basic 5MP rear and 1.3MP front cameras that lack exceptional detail and a flash.
