Design and Display
Showing off an elegant design, the G Pad II 10.1 is thinner than the first-generation tablet at a thickness of just 7.8 millimetres. It is equally around 34 grams lighter than its predecessor. Its chassis has a nice-looking metallic finish.
The slate crams in a 10.1-inch diagonal display with very thin bezels. The display now boasts an improved WUXGA resolution – that is, 1920 x 1200 pixels – to offer you an immersive multimedia experience.
Camera and Storage
LG G Pad II is fitted with a 5-megapixel camera and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera – hardly convincing, but decent enough since a device of this size is not one you want to depend on for your photography stunts.
You get 16 GB of onboard storage for your photos and other files. There is a microSD card slot for storage expansion and you also get free 100GB storage allocation on OneDrive for two years.
Hardware and Software
The new G Pad II tablet is armed with a sturdier Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor clocked at 2.26GHz to offer you speedy and responsive performance when browsing, playing games, or watching movies. With support provided by RAM of 2GB capacity, the quad-core processor should deliver impressive multitasking.
LG G Pad II will run on Android 5.1.1 Lollipop operating system.
Other Features
The G Pad II is equipped with a heavy-duty battery of 7400mAh capacity – smaller than the one on the original 10-inch G Pad, actually. It boasts 4G LTE connectivity to let you enjoy the best of mobile data speeds. Connectivity features include USB 2.0, 3G and Wi-Fi 802.11 a/b/g/n/ac.
LG G Pad II 10.1 has a Reader Mode that helps ensure comfortable e-book reading by reducing fatigue and blurred vision-inducing blue light in the display backlight. There is also a Dual Window feature that divides the screen to enable you run two different applications at the same time.
