Verdict

The T-Mobile G-Slate 4G (by LG) is a uniquely sized 8.9-inch tablet featuring a 1280 x 768 resolution 3D-capable display and 4G HSPA+ connectivity. Powered by a 1GHz dual-core Nvidia Tegra 2 processor with 1GB of RAM and 32GB of internal storage, it runs on the tablet-optimized Android 3.0 Honeycomb platform. Its most distinctive feature is a dual 5MP rear camera system for stereoscopic 3D video recording, complemented by a 2MP front-facing camera and mini-HDMI output. Main pros include its comfortable 'in-between' form factor, smooth multitasking performance for its era, and integrated stereo speakers. However, notable cons include the lack of a microSD slot for expandable storage, the requirement of a proprietary charger despite having a micro-USB port, and a relatively bulky half-inch thickness.
