Verdict

The LG G Pad F2 8.0 is an entry-level 4G LTE tablet featuring an 8-inch WXGA (1280 x 800) IPS display and a slim, lightweight 350g design. It is powered by a 1.5GHz octa-core MediaTek MT6750 processor paired with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage, which is expandable via a microSD slot up to 2TB. Notable characteristics include its 5MP front and rear cameras, Android 7.1 Nougat operating system, and a 3,000mAh battery that can be supplemented with an optional 4,400mAh 'Plus Pack' for a total of 7,400mAh. Its main pros are the comfortable, one-handed form factor, the inclusion of a full-size USB port on certain modular accessories, and useful software features like 'Comfort View' to reduce eye strain. However, common cons include its limited 16GB of onboard storage, lack of a camera flash, and entry-level performance that can result in sluggishness during heavy multitasking.
