LG G Pad II 8.0 quietly revealed with full-size USB port

LG has quietly introduced a new Android tablet, the LG G Pad II 8.0, on its Korean website. As its name suggests, the G Pad II 8.0 offers an 8-inch screen, and its resolution is set at 1280x800. Sitting above that 8-inch display is a 2-megapixel camera, and the back of the tablet houses a 5-megapixel shooter.

There’s a 1.2GHz quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor powering LG’s new tablet along with 1.5GB of RAM and a 4200mAh battery. LG’s also throwing 32GB of storage and a microSD slot into its new G Pad II 8.0, and in terms of software, you’re getting Android 5.0 running beneath LG’s custom user interface.

LG’s promo page for the G Pad II 8.0 show that the tablet has a full-size USB port, meaning that you can plug in accessories like a USB flash drive or a game controller. The page also touts Microsoft Office apps and a stylus with a small 3.5mm tip. On the software side, you get features like an LG app that lets you connect your phone to your tablet and then accept phone calls on your G Pad II 8.0.

In all, the G Pad II 8.0 looks like a fairly entry-level tablet. The full-size USB port is a nice inclusion, though. There’s no word on when the G Pad II 8.0 might launch, if it’ll be released outside of Korea, or how much it might cost.
