LG announces new G Pad 7.0, G Pad 8.0, G Pad 10.1 tablets

New Delhi: Extending its G Pad tablet series, LG has announced the launch of three new tablets. The new G Pad devices - G Pad 7.0, G Pad 8.0 and G Pad 10.1 - will be unveiled at the MedPI 2014, one of the biggest tech trade shows in Europe, from May 13-16.
"Unlike smartphones, tablets are not one size fits all. So we designed the G Pad Series for a diverse target audience, some who prioritise portability while others want the best multimedia experience possible," said said Jong-seok Park, president and CEO of the LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company.
The LG G Pad 7.0 will be LG's smallest tablet that the company claims will deliver both portability and power. The 8-inch G Pad 8.0 will be a mid-sized tablet, while the LG G Pad 10.1 will have a 10.1-inch display.
The new G Pad tablets will also include LG's proprietary UX features such as QPair 2.0 and Knock Code. With an updated version of QPair, which was first introduced on G Pad 8.3, users can connect to their Android-powered smartphones via Bluetooth to receive notifications of calls and messages and now be able to respond directly from the G Pad.
Knock Code enables users to power on and unlock their LG smartphones in one easy step by entering a personalised pattern on the smartphone's display. The knock pattern can be entered anywhere on the screen in any size - with the display on or off.
Additional details of LG's new tablets, including specifications and availability, will be announced locally in the weeks ahead, says the company
