If iPad has been the most powerful but expensive PC tablet around the market, then LG doesn’t want to be left behind by Apple or other vendors such as: Samsung or Sony in bringing another great alternative but more affordable tablet than the iPad. And it’s gonna be called as

LG Optimus Pad LTE. Yeah, by hearing the name of this tablet, I bet you can picture it in your mind how this tablet looks like, right? It’s gonna look like iPad and it’s gonna use the LTE technology.

As I’ve already explained in my small glossary post few weeks ago, LTE, the abbreviation of Long Term Evolution, is a the further development of 3G network and HSDPA or 3.5G. It’s believed the devices that use this LTE technology will have the downloading speed of up to 100 Mbps (Mega Byte per second) and uploading speed of up to 50Mbps. So definitely,

LG Optimus Pad will be a great on-the-go tablet for internet browsing for sure.

Having been injected with second latest Android version 3.2 (to date) called Honeycomb and 1.5 GHz dual-core processor, the whole performance of LG Optimus Pad will be much faster than general Android tablets around the market, especially in operating much heavier applications across Android OS.

LG Optimus Pad comes with the microSD slot and 32 GB external memory. With the support of IPS True HD screen technology, LG Optimus Pad is no doubt will be comfortable to stare. Moreover, the screen size of this tablet is 8.9 inches, so doing slide, pinch to zoom, tap or anything around this wide screen of this device will bring an outstanding experience to the users, especially for watching any HD multimedia files or games.

This tablet also features an excellent 8MP camera on the back of device. Certainly, the standard or HD video recording can be accommodated brilliantly on this tablet. The best thing, if you’re not fully satisfied with the quality of the recorded video, you can also customize or edit it directly on the feature called Smart Movie Editor. Connecting LG Optimus Pad with your HD TV can also be done perfectly with the support of HDMI.

Another feature called Web Duet can also be useful for text messaging purposes. While the On-screen Phone (OSP) can be really handy to help the compatibility between LG Optimus Pad with your other LG smart phones.
