LG has released a sort of teaser for a forthcoming tablet, with a new YouTube clip describing what people might like to see from its LG G Pad 8.3. The idea seems to be that most users find the iPad a bit too big for comfortable carrying and the mass of 7″ Android tablets a bit too small for media consumption, with the LG G Pad’s 8.3-inch display pitched tight in the middle.
Nothing’s shown of an actual device in the YouTube clip, just a lot of people rambling on about tablet features…
…but that’s definitely the name. Too many fonts going on there in that logo, BTW. We didn’t think LG would ever go back into tablets after the laughably disastrous £800 LG Optimus Pad of 2011, but if it can get this new 8.3″ thing on sale at anything like the price of the Nexus 7, we’d definitely think about it.
It’s smooth to use, the 1080p display is sharp, clear and bright, the device is extremely light and thin and therefore very pocketable and portable — much more so than other 5-inch phones we’ve used. And yet… we’re a bit unimpressed by the overall package…
A relatively high-spec smartphone, with a 4.5″ display running at 480 x 854 resolution and powered by a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, plus the Ascend G510 arrives running Android 4.1.1 — albeit potentially hindered by Huawei only sticking 512MB of RAM inside it..
The Panasonic Eluga marks the company’s return to the European mobile phone scene years after several years of absence, and it’s come back to us with a moderately high-spec Android model that features a rather stylish, slim case.
Sony returns with an all-new mobile design for 2012, pairing a dual-core processor with a 720p display. It’s a lovely phone, but is it enough to end our Samsung and HTC obsession?
LG’s updated Prada phone comes with an absolutely crazy black & white theme, but is it just for fashionable suit wearers who want to make themselves look a bit more interesting?
