Customers are raving about the LG G Pad 8.3's large 8.3-inch screen, blazing-fast performance, and impressive battery life. Many users are also pleased with its affordable price, multitasking capabilities, and high-resolution display. However, some users have expressed dissatisfaction with the tablet's camera, which lacks a flash, and its average-quality speakers.
I looked at Apple iPad Air and Mini with Retina, but decided to buy this LG Pad for two reasons: * I find iPad Air too big to hold, esp with one hand. * Was very tempted to buy the Mini with Retina, but dropped that idea because I own an Android phone and didn't want to remember two ways of doing everything. Coming to pros/cons of the LG Pad.. Pros: * I personally like the 8/8.5" screen size better than smaller 7" tablets or bigger 10" ones * I would have liked the tablet to be slightly lighter than it is, but still it's not bad and holding it for an hour or two doesn't cause any inconvenience. * You can open an app such as notepad in a pop-up window which stays on top of any other app that might be running. That way you can keep let's say a web page visible, look at some info on it and note it down in a notepad. * After a full recharge, battery easily lasts for 7/8 hours. Things that could have been better: * Quality of pics clicked with this tablet is not too great. * Speakers are of average quality. There are some other features which I haven't tried yet but could be useful, such as: "Q Pair" which lets you pair the tablet with any Android smartphone (get call notifications, memo transfer), "Q Remote" - use the tablet as a remote control for your TV. Hope this review helps you in making your decision.

One of the best, if not the best 8-inch android tablet. Very light as well, comfortable to hold with one hand for a very long time, great for presentation. Screen is very bright with fast processor, not the fastest. Micro SD slot adds much more storage (up to 64 Gig) without breaking bank (i.e. what ipad will charge you). Above average sound quality. Battery is above average, will last you around 7 hour of WIFI and video use. Price is more at the higher end, $350, the only downside for me.

The display is brilliant and functions very smoothly. So far I am very happy with this tablet. It is thick enough that I don't feel like I have to be super careful with it but lightweight enough to be portable and easy to use on the go.
