Following the unveiling of three new G Pad tablets in May, LG Electronics today confirmed that the new G Pad 7.0 is rolling out in Europe this week, followed by the G Pad 8.0 and G Pad 10.1 over the next several weeks. All three tablets will offer a 1.2 GHz Quad-Core processor, 1GB RAM and a True IPS HD display (1280 x 800), and will be available in in five different colors - Black, White, Red, Luminous Orange and Luminous Blue.

LG’s smallest tablet, G Pad 7.0 is a portable entertainment hub. LG’s mid-sized tablet, G Pad 8.0 is strong enough to offer smooth multitasking, while the the G Pad 10.1 boasts an expansive display powered by an 8,000mAh battery.

QPair 2.0 provides convergence between Android-powered tablets and smartphones via a simple Bluetooth connection. Users can receive notifications of calls and messages on a smartphone and respond directly from the G Pad. To encourage the creation of apps that make optimal use of this integration, the QPair 2.0 Software Development Kit (SDK) is now available for download from LG Developer website (http://developer.lge.com).

The graphical user interface (GUI) of all three tablets was designed to be easy to navigate and it is consistent with the look and feel of the recently unveiled LG G3 smartphone.

The new LG tablets will also include the KnockCode security feature so users can power on and unlock their G Pad in one step with a pattern of taps. The G Pad will recognize up to four sets of knock patterns.

Smart Keyboard and Dual Window will be also included in the tablet trio. Smart Keyboard reduces input errors by up to 75 percent by tracking and analyzing typing habits and "knowing" what word the user intended to type. Dual Window can also split the screen and run two applications at the same time.

Anti-Theft Feature For LG G3

In related news, LG says that the new LG G3 will come pre-installed with a version of McAfee Mobile Security that includes a new anti-theft feature designed to protect users from unauthorized factory resets. The Kill Switch provides users the ability to disable their phones remotely in the event of device loss or theft. The software allows content to be wiped to prevent personal information from being compromised.

McAfee Mobile Security has been pre-installed and the Kill Switch feature automatically activated on LG G3 phones starting May 28th.
