LG is Adding Three New Models to its G Pad Range of Tablets

— May 13, 2014 — Tech
LG has announced that it will be adding three new tablets to its G Pad line. The G Pad 7.0, 8.0 and 10.1 will unsurprisingly feature 7, 8 and 10.1-inch displays respectively.

The new G Pads will feature improvements over the operating system seen in the old G Pad 8.3. They will be equipped with a feature called 'QPair 2.0' which allows users to connect their Android smartphones to the tablet to receive and respond to messages and calls. They will also be fitted with a 'Knock Code' locking system, which allows the user to enter a pattern of taps anywhere on the tablet's display to unlock it.

"We designed the G Pad Series for a diverse target audience, some who prioritize portability while others want the best multimedia experience possible," said Dr. Jong-Seok Park, CEO and President of LG.

3. Advanced Locking System - The 'Knock Code' locking system presents disruptive innovation opportunities for security and user authentication solutions.
