LG G Pad rumored to pack Retina-like display and cell capabilities

LG G Pad: like a bigger Nexus 7?

More rumors about LG's alleged upcoming tablet, the LG G Pad, popped up again today when sources came forward claiming they've held the device in their hands.

According to the Greek site TechBlog (via Phone Arena), those sources spilled the beans about some of the G Pad's stats.

Allegedly the LG G Pad is an 8.3-inch tablet with an impressive 1920 x 1200 display resolution, putting it in the same ballpark as Apple's best Retina screens.

Interestingly, the G Pad was also said to have cell capabilities with support for call-enabled SIM cards.

The G report

According to those who supposedly handled the G Pad, it's extremely thin and light, with a small side bezel, and fits easily into back pockets - which for an 8.3-inch tablet is nigh unbelievable, so take that with a side of salt.

The G Pad reportedly also sports a quad-core processor and 2GB of memory, but that's where the details stop.

Overall the G Pad was compared to the Nexus 7, only slightly larger.

What up, G

LG hasn't released a tablet since the Optimus Pad came out years ago, but it was rumored as far back as May this year that the company is getting back into the tablet game.

The G Pad name first surfaced last month, when LG filed listings for "G"-branded devices like a G Watch, G Band, G Hub, G Glass, and G Link.

The G Pad and G Watch are slightly predictable, but whatever the rest of those are remains a mystery.

Thankfully, Phone Arena reports that the G Pad, at least, will be unveiled at IFA 2013 in Berlin, so we may not have to wait much longer to find out.
