hello everybody it's Lynn law from cnet and today we're going to take a look at the LG G pad 8.3 google play edition as you may know we've already looked at this tablet before when it originally launched with LG and the Optimus user interface however as the first tablet to be reworked as a google edition tablet the G pad now runs the vanilla Android 4.4 kitkat OS now this does mean the device will lose some of the built in software features seen in the first G pad such as LG's quick memo app and the Bluetooth connecting feature Q pair by having a Google branded device does have other benefits for example users will get the newest updates from google as they roll in in fact the first time we started up the tablet it prompted us to install the latest four-point 4.2 update Google's G pad also has a bit more available internal storage space though both editions have expandable memory upto 64 gigs via a microSD card and it's a tad bit though noticeably faster chrome and the apt or launch is quicker it took a shorter amount of time to load the first level of nova 3 and it scored better results on our 3dmark bench tests hardware-wise however the tablets are identical the g pad still has an 8 point 3 inch HD display with in 1920 x 1200 pixel resolution and 273 PPI it also has a 1.7 gigahertz quad-core Snapdragon 600 processor a 4.6 ampere our battery and two cameras with a 5 megapixel shooter in the back if you're interested the Wi-Fi only tablet is available at the Play Store for about three hundred and fifty dollars again I'm Lynn and you've been checking out the LG G pad 8.3 google play edition you
