Verdict

The LG G Pad 8.3 LTE is an 8.3-inch Android tablet featuring a 1920x1200 Full HD IPS display with a pixel density of 273 ppi. It is powered by a 1.5 GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 600 processor paired with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, which is expandable up to 64GB via a microSD slot. Key characteristics include its premium-feeling aluminum back, dual stereo speakers, and 4G LTE connectivity. Its main pros are the sharp and vibrant display, a slim design that allows for a comfortable one-handed grip, and useful software features like KnockON for waking the screen. However, it is held back by relatively short battery life when using 4G data, a dim backlight that can affect outdoor visibility, and basic 5MP/1.3MP cameras that lack a flash and struggle in low light.
