Rumour: LG G Pad 8.3 Will Cost Just $299
LG officially re-entered the tablet market earlier this month when they announced the G Pad 8.3. The device looks pretty sleek and has some pretty nice hardware powering it:
- 8.3″ 1920×1200 Resolution Display
- 1.6 GHz Quad-Core Snapdragon 600 Procesor
- 2GB RAM
- 16GB Internal Storage
- 5MP Camera
- 1.3MP Front Facing Camear
- 4600 mAh Battery
Looks pretty good on paper doesn’t it? Well things could get even sweeter if this latest rumour is to be believed. According to Chinese website Zol, the LG G Pad 8.3 may come with just a $299 price tag. Now it’s not like we don’t already have a multitude of low cost tablets, but a low cost tablet of this caliber is pretty rare. If, and that’s a big if, LG is able to sell this tablet at $299, they automatically become one of the best bang for buck tablets in my books (if not thee best bang for buck tablet).
Again, this is just a rumour at this point so take it with a grain of salt. The device is set to launch in Q4 so I’m sure we’ll get some official numbers from LG soon enough. Till then, I guess keep your fingers crossed?
