LG Confirms Its New 8.3-Inch G Pad Tablet In A Video

The South Korean company appears to have confirmed earlier reports, teasing the device in a new ad on YouTube. The commercial doesn’t actually show the G Pad, instead featuring a handful of man-on-the-street interviews in which consumers are asked what they want in a tablet.

The answers give us an idea of what the G Pad 8.3 may look like, hinting at a pocket-sized slate with a fast processor and an HD display that’s great for watching movies. LG also suggests that the tablet will seamlessly sync with your other devices and cloud-based services.

“As exemplified by our recently introduced LG G2 smartphone, we are very focused on developing innovation that reflects the needs and desires of global consumers,” Dr. Jong-seok Park, President and CEO of the LG Electronics Mobile Communications Company said.

He added: “The LG G Pad 8.3 is the perfect form factor that delivers an exceptional viewing experience and we’re very proud to make it part of our G Series brand.”

The Android tablet is also expected to come equipped with a Full HD Plus 1920 x 1200-pixel display, a quad-core processor, 2GB of RAM, and aluminum casing. It is expected the tablet will be powered by Google’s Android OS.

LG G2 smartphone and LG G Pad look very similar, which is no surprise since they both fall under the company’s new G series branding.

There are a few small differences. The LG logo is at the top not the bottom on the tablet, and the speaker grill and front-facing camera have been moved to the top-right corner. Other than that, the two devices feature the same large rectangle shape, rounded edges and thin side bezels. It’s possible that the G Pad may also feature buttons on the back, although the rendering appears to depict a power button on the right side of the tablet near the top.

LG G2 and LG G Pad 

With the appearance of a teaser trailer, it seems certain the LG G Pad will launch during the IFA tech show in Berlin early next month. LG hasn’t set a date for a special event, but may simply choose to reveal it on the show floor, much like Samsung did with the Galaxy Note 8.0 – which is probably going to be one of its major competitors – at Mobile World Congress in February.

The electronics giant is getting ready for massive production of sapphire displays.  Speculation has been running rampant about Apple's plans for mobile devices with a sapphire screen and it is finally appear to be firming up on Thursday. Apple uses sapphire for the ID fingerprint sensor in the iPhone 5S The iPhone maker recently placed a large order with GT Advanced Technologies for furnaces and chambers used in making sapphire displays. According to 9to5Mac, GT Advanced has already received 518 furnace and chamber systems, which would let it build 103 million to 116 million 5-inch displays per year. (Another 420 machines are still on order, which would nearly double that production output.) Moreover, GT Advanced also has ordered Intego Sirius Sapphire Display Inspection Tool components, which would work to make sure that the displays meet high-quality standards.

gStick: A Pen Shaped Mouse Mimicking a pen in shape and size, gStick is looking to join the ranks of alternative mouse designs that aim to attain extra degree of precision, difficult to attain using a conventional mouse. Gordon Alan Stewart of Anchorage, Alaska created the gStick after he tried to sign a contract online using a traditional mouse and realised how difficult it can be with the tried and tested form factor. After three years of development and testing, he is now ready to bring gStick to the market. The gStick has not been designed to completely replace a traditional mouse, but instead for those people who use applications such as Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Video Editing and 3D rendering has been mentioned, along with PC gamers, which seems unusual to us. It's also suitable for kids, who will find the transition between using a pen and the gStick a lot easier than jumping straight to using a conventional mouse according to the creators. T
