Cheap, sure, but only cheerful if you can accept the compromises
Cheap ; Boasts some excellent features ; Superb battery life
Underpowered ; Low-res screen ; Camera is disappointing
and the G Pad 7.0, which are also being launched at the same time. The internals are practically identical across all three devices, with a quad-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon CPU, 800 x 1280-pixel IPS screen, 1GB of RAM and 16GB of internal storage.

Guess what! You can actually buy a decent tablet for only $50. Aside from the $50 Amazon Fire , there's the LG G Pad X 8.0. The catch with the LG? It's only offered for $50 with a two-year AT&T contract . Otherwise, it costs $250 retail, which, in my...
The LG G Pad X 8.0 only costs $50 with a two-year AT&T service contract. It has a lightweight and portable design, sharp screen and full-size USB port. The built-in IR blaster lets you use it as a remote control.
The $50 price tag is half the story. You still have to pay extra for monthly cellular service.
Skip the LG G Pad X 8.0 if the thought of a tablet two-year contract seems ludicrous, but if you're cool with a commitment, a $50 initial buy-in can't really be beat.

Chicken-breasted long-distance runner. LG offers an 8-inch tablet for less than 200 Euros (~$254) that has an excellent battery life dubbed G Pad 8.0. However, the runtimes are at the expense of having a weak SoC, which is usually found in entry-level...
Decent IPS screen, Excellent battery life, Expandable storage, LTE version optionally available, Latest Android, Useful, preloaded software, Dual-band Wi-Fi
Relatively weak SoC, Middling outdoor suitability, Minor lags, Weak speakers
LG's G Pad 8.0 V480 is an 8-inch tablet where some compromises have to be made. Although the screen's resolution is high enough, some contenders have more to offer. Its performance is on par with many of its rivals, but they have been in the market for...

Bought this tablet on last year's thanksgiving deal. No complaints on this one. Really happy with this product. Ordered another one now for my parents.Very good value for money when bought with discounts.
Consumer review (johnlewis.com)
Bought this to replace a Google Nexus 7 which was unrepairable. Easy to use very similar to previous tablet. Bright screen easy to navigate and a little lighter than the Google nexus God value

Compares really well to a non android product we own. Nice size and weight making it ideal for travelling. Above all very straightforward to use.
