LG launches G Pad X2 8.0 Plus in the U.S

LG and T-Mobile has launched a new 8-inch Android Nougat tablet in the U.S called G Pad X2 8.0 Plus. The tablet comes with an accessory called Plus Pack, which doubles as a kickstand. It packs an additional 4400mAh battery, and comes with stereo speaker and a full size USB port to attach USB drives and hard drives.

In terms of specification, the LG G Pad X2 8.0 Plus features 8-inch Full HD (1920 x 1200) display and is equipped with 1.4GHz octa-core Snapdragon processor, 3GB RAM and 32GB internal storage, that's expandable via microSD card (up to 2TB).

The tablet has 5MP front and rear camera, and supports 4G LTE, Bluetooth 4.2, WiFi for wireless connectivity. A 2900mAh battery runs the show, which is very small given that it's a tablet. But the Plus Pack comes to play here, and gives the additional 4400mAh power, for a total capacity of 6300mAh. The Plus Pack attaches to the tablet via pogo pins.

There's also a customizable quick button which can be used to change the display to Comfort View, or can be configured to launch your frequently used apps.

The LG G Pad X2 8.0 Plus is priced at $240 and is available in the U.S through T-Mobile stores.
