LG Electronics (LG) has commenced the global rollout of the LG G Pad 10.1, its largest tablet in the G Pad series. The LG G Pad 10.1 will make its debut in the United States followed by other markets in Europe, Asia and Latin America later in the month. Prices and retail availability will be announced locally in each market. Powered by an 8,000mAh battery the LG G Pad series is designed to fill the gap between entry level and premium tablets. Highlights of the LG G3’s advanced UX features included in the G Pad 10.1 are: Touch & Shoot: Tapping anywhere on the display will focus and activate the shutter in a single step, saving time and that once-in-a-lifetime shot. Gesture Shot for selfies: Simply clenching the free hand into a fist within the shot frame will automatically begin a three-second countdown before snapping the picture for a blur-free photo Smart Keyboard: LG says the Smart Keyboard reduces input errors by up to 75% by tracking and analysing typing habits and intuitively “knowing” what word the user intended to type. Dual Window: Splits the tablet screen and runs two applications at the same time, dragging and dropping content from one window to the other for effortless multitasking. “Consumers use tablets differently from smartphones and we wanted to highlight the important role of entertainment in the new LG G Pad 10.1,” said Dr. Jong-seok Park, President and CEO of the LG Electronics Mobile Communications. “Tablets are increasingly being used as companion devices, which is why we made connecting the LG G Pad 10.1 to other devices so easy and convenient and why LG G Pad 10.1 offers the best core technologies of our G series smartphones.” Knock Code is an innovative a security feature that allows up to four users to register their knock patterns so people can share the same tablet while still being able to keep their data and photos private.
