LG G Pad 7.0 - User Reviews

  • It has been doing the following things from the time I bought it: "High tempereature, shutting down for your safety" It always does this unless it is on a charger. Can you help me?

  • My tab has frozen up. help!!

  • OK tablet. I mostly use it for streaming music to bluetooth speakers and watching tv/movies on the road. I was on the road when I purchased it, out of the box it came with KitKatt, connected to my Sony cube bluetooth speakers, I was happy. Ran the Lolipop upgrade and now those speakers connect but the stream cuts out every two seconds. Speakers don't do that with any other device. Also when I'm streaming music from iHeart or another streaming service, that stream gets disconnect if I try to browse the internet while the stream is playing.

  • How come share it app does not work on this tab? Can someone here help me please? Thanks in advance. ^^

  • Install "Brightness Patcher" app This application is for LG devices that are suffering from "Unable to increase brightness due to overheating!" issue. The app provides a permanent and easy one click solution to address this issue.

  • We bought 15 for work. A few of them also overheat all the time. I've ordered a replacement battery to see if that resolves the problems.

  • Mine is good running and no problem good for gaming long battery life

  • My Gpad always, and I mean ALWAYS overheats. I get maybe 10-15 minutes of Instagram before it "shuts down for my safety". Most of the time, I can't even feel any heat. I don't know if anyone else has this problem but I find it very frustrating. It's been doing this for a year now, so it started before it was even a year old.

  • need lcd plsssss...................

  • My LG G pad 7 is new and when i first turned it on it emidiately wanted a pssword withch i dont know what to do …

  • i believe you can; in Google devices .. it will show with accuracy where it is..and if you use Google i suppose- but: on your pic in the browser: go to Account: look under Device activities

  • My LG G Pad got stolen but don't have any information of it....wondering if I could GPS track it

  • in my lg g pad have no hotspot, what can I do

  • nope, i have os updated to lollipop, i played Asphalt 8: Airborne with no lags

  • Tapped Out works OK for me, except for occasional massive (but somehow amusing) graphics corruption. Is it worse in your case?

  • i can, i have this tablet almost year and im more than satisfied.. for 140 euros..

  • I can't seem to play my games on this tablet Simpsons tapped out Or family guy quest for stuff I'm sooo bummed out

  • Can i play Vainglory on this tablet? without any lags or problems?

  • because of the graphic processor is not about just RAM memory its about the Chipset that is running graphics and andreno 350 or 305 is not going to tolerate that high quality graphics

  • I have model LGLK430, the screen has cracked and I want to order a new one. The only ones I can find are only specified for hte LG GPAD 7.0 are these the same, and will i be ok ordering the part?

  • There IS cellular connectivity on the VK410 Verizon version of this tablet. The tablet is solid and well built as far as quality. The Adreno 305 GPU has a bit more to be had. It crashes during some video rendering effects. The battery life is beyond any other tablet I have used. I can play a 3D game for 6+ hours before needing a charge. Android 5.0.2, tailored for Verizon seems to have GUI crashes and restarts here and there. This particular Android GUI without the integrated buttons in the device is rather cheesy and annoying to navigate through and resembles a Chinese tablet. The built in cameras may have well not exist due to the low shutter speed, terrible image quality, and low resolution. On top of that, users tend to accidently open the camera application while setting the tablet down. It is also difficult for new users to find out how to leave the camera application to return to the main GUI. It is rather annoying and would be preferred just to not have the camera at all.

  • It gets CM 13!!!

  • Why won't clash of clans download on here?

  • Push the power button and volume down for the screen shot

  • I cant seem to connect this tablet to my tv with a mesia link cable Is it possible to do it?

  • I cant find a screen shot in this tab?? Pls tell me if theres screen shot

  • How to install large games? seems that i cant play large games like asphalt. nfs MW. and other large games on tihs. i tried putting ta obb and data files to my SD card and it doesnt work. and when i put it in internal w/c is obviously low internal. it works. how can i play games using my sd card???????

  • No at all i have installed cyanogenmod 12.1 (android 5.1.1) stable release and it is a little beast even with lg kitkat and lg lollipop the tablet run perfectly smooth

  • No at all i have installed cyanogenmod 12.1 (android 5.1.1) stable release and it is a little beast even with lg kitkat and lg lollipop the tablet run perfectly smooth

  • Good little tablet. Snappy, great for everyday use. My only complaint is the IR chip is proprietary so no Play-store remote apps work. The one that comes pre-installed has minimal devices available. No support for Magnavox Televisions. LG doesn't plan on releasing their code, so nobody can integrate it's IR into their programs.

  • PROS: -good build quality/design -nice screen, good for reading -decent battery CONS: -very low internal storage(3.7 GB out of the box), especially after lollipop update. -subpar camera but typical of lowend tablets.

  • Which is better lg g pad 7.0 or asus fonepad 7 fe375cxg?

  • Try axerwap or clickwap. U can download mp3s and YouTube videos.

  • how to download songs or videos

  • it's better u make your own "best" tablet and use.

  • Honestly i've bought it since one month...ive no problem with it.. May be its not a good one about specs...but i love it

  • Used barely 2 weeks, just shut itself off, battery fully charged. Not impressed

  • Had problems running Netflix on it. Audio won't sync with the video.

  • Google play store not working on my lg glad 7.

  • for those who are experiencing something bad with their gadgets,, i guess the company honor warranty on the gadget, so if your gadgets are newly bought then use the warranty..

  • I have also had two apparently fail on me. the first was three days, the second was a couple weeks. At first I think the battery just went dead, when I plug it in I get nothing. Came here looking to see if I could find some advice on reviving it.

  • broke the tablet and buy another one

  • Hi i have a problem ryt now from my lg gpad 7.0... I play some games and unfortunately its hung... Its almost one hour that my gpad is hung and i cant go back to home... I realy dont know what to do ryt now... So please please please help me i dont know what to do... Im hoping for your reply... Thanks jj...

  • lg v410 will be updated???

  • got FW ver 5.0.2 a couple minutes ago

  • The version id 5.0.2 and is stable.

  • Did you update Android v5? How is it? Is there any problem? Can you tell me the exact versoin?

  • Android Lollipop 5.0 rolling out. OTA available for download.

  • How to call not able to call

  • Yes you can still download application to your device with a micro sd and you can also move other application to the sd card that you've already downloaded

  • I've had the worst experience I have 2 of them and at this time both quit working and I can't get them back on... I've tried everything I've had them less than 4 months...

  • Same as me from sprint buy a android and get a tablet free and I like more then iPad mini.

  • Does it restart if you keep the power button pressed for eight seconds? Then you won't need to let the battery run down (which certainly won't do it any good). If it hasn't managed to boot up properly since you first encountered that problem, there is a way to hard reset it (see "Important notice" in manual).

  • It keeps on hanging. Had it for 5 days now and when i restart the tab,it just hangs. Need to wait for the batt to be totally drain, then charge it, before i can power it back on!!! I only installed few apps like FB,Instagram. The internal memory is not even half occupied.Total bum!

  • dude,this lg g pad 7.0 is a really good gift for kids! i got one and i dont need a samsung galaxy tab 3 to make me like the tablets lg g pad 7.0 the best tablet they give it for free in att i you buy a smartphone!!

  • The "organic" look and feel is also much due to the compared to other tablets and phones gentle to your eyes, warm hue with wich colors are rendered.

  • Mostly due to its software, it is more like an organic "apple" than an android hightech thingie, that makes its charm. But the camera is a bit of a pain, no autofocus,.. can't be used with ocr, barcode,.. scanning apps.

  • Then you don't have any other modern tech near you.

  • The LG's entry level tablet that I'm in love with that has forced me to try their smartphones G3S (mini) and G3 where I have so much regret it. So I stay at LG awesome tablet but only there now on..

  • You can use it as a remote control with QuickRemote.

  • What can you do with the ir sensor? I haven't found anything that uses it. Why have it?

  • I own one and yes, you can load apps to a micro SD card but the capacity is limited to 32 GB I was told at purchase.

  • isn/t there any other complains to make ??????

  • Let's say that my 8gb internal memory is already full. Can I download additional applications from the google play and store it in the micro sd? Thank you.

  • Does this tab freeze,hang and something like that?

  • Does this tab freeze,hang and something like that?

  • As others have pointed out, it is actually mentioned in the manual. "For aesthetic reasons" it says, though I can't imagine anyone looking at the back and admiring how it has two openings.

  • Noticed the same situation with the speakers on mine. Tried to look up specs but nothing is mentioned. At first i was thinking one is a mic and the other the speaker but realized the mic is actually next to the headphone jack.

  • Seriously? No doubt you work for lg or you have some kind relationship. Here is why I'm so thinking... This is a regular low-end tablet with poor snapdragon chip, low ram, low intern memory, weak gpu, bad camera, bad battery, silent speaker/audio, average screen, lack of most trendy sensors, no external display option, no wifi ac... Thus, nothing makes this tablet special... Even not a cheap tablet, quite pricey. Another ugly nephew of Sammy's terrible galaxy tab 1-2-3-4 family, actually sammy's tablets has more options, atleast more sensors :) Why are you thanking to LG, IR sensor may be?

  • I got this tablet and this is really a good tablet for its price. Thanks LG!!!!! Kodus!!!

  • The battery life is absolutely incredible! I have used 3 tablet: Nexus 7: last about ~6hours Ipad mini 2: ~10hours Lg Gpad 7.0: ~11hours! So i strongly recomend Gpad 7.0 it has beautiful screen, fast and long time battery life.(considered its only ~150$)

  • No USB org support for Ethernet No hdmi support on the USB port Nexus 4 has it so lg must know how to do it

  • i bought the memo pad hd 7, i test his performance and battery life and bumm big disappointment because the first time i did the benchmarks that was WOW incredible but few days later the same bench was dropped significantly and when i played some games like asphalt 8 tablet just warmed too much for my opinion, then the battery life was just in my experience horrible because i charged to full, then i started to use till 75% and when i just let it in standby for few hours then use again and battery was for one minute in 75% and immediatly down to 50%, then when tablet was in 20% just turn off, after that I decided to ask for a change in the store, luckily for me because then i met THE LG G Pad 7 best tablet to the moment atleast in this kind of prices. BTW excuse my english just trying to share my story

  • I bought my LG Pad 7.0 on Nov. 28, 2014. Its design, portable size, light weight, functions, resolution, speed, and versatility are tops. Its black color matches its very nice black plastic case, serving as a stand. Its various apps perform very well. Price is reasonable and affordable. Thanks LG!

  • beautiful base on the price. if you wer looking for much good tablet sp end much big money to another brand.

  • I got one, it has only a functional speaker on the back the other one is fake...this is just stupid, the image is not so good but it s ok for the price

  • the best 7 inch tab

  • Very nice tab, bought about two weeks ago. Battery - amazing,using a lot and ~2-3 days until discharge. Screen - also very nice, colors very bright, very comfortable to watch youtube videos, movies or something. Camera - looks like 7mp+, Skype video calls works really well. Design - very comfortable to hold in your hand. GPS - works also really good. I think this is best tab for this price, bought for 115 eur (with all delivery charges)!

  • According to lg's official site the maximum sdcard size is 32 GB not 64GB as stated here. This is my tablet and i absolutely love it. It's fast,has nice colors, it is the perfect size.

  • I meant the MeMo Pad HD 7(ME176C) version of course.

  • Asus MeMo Pad HD 7 for sure, you won't find another tablet with Intel inside for this price. Beats every other tablet in it's price range.

  • I bought it yesterday in an offer in the Spanish Phone House were I bought the G Pad 7.0 for 159 euros and got a free LG Optimus L4 II. I love this tablet, it's really fast because of the quad-core Snapdragon 400 processor, it has clean UI, and Knock Code, Knock On, Gesture Shot and Front Camera Light are very good features, the rear camera is a little bit poor but that´s the only that I can really complain about.

  • thanks man

  • I just got my LG G Pad yesterday and I was blown away with it's specifications considering it's price which is cheap. I have tried downloading Dead Trigger 2 and Asphalt 8 and both can play smoothly in my pad without any lag. Also Clash of Clan is just an easy thing on the Pad. Only downside is the camera which is not good but tablets are not designed for taking photos so I can live with it.I have my camera and smart phone (13mega Pixels) if I need to take a photo. Watching movies is also great as screen is High Definition.

  • Difference between Snapdragon 400 MSM8226 and Mediatek MT8125 is huge, so it's more logical to buy LG V400. Even it's newer and cheaper, it has KitKat, so same amount of RAM could be used better.

  • the LG's tablets are best in world

  • memo pad hd7 or lg g pad 7?help me choose please.

  • That is correct there is no speaker on the right vent. You can find this information on the manual of the G Pad on LG website

  • There is no need cause it has quick access to adjust the display brightness

  • Yes, sound only comes out from the left...

  • Yes this tablet has mono speaker output. Right and left channels are mixed to this lonly speaker! I've been catched by wrong advertisement.

  • Got one... Most annoying is the lack of light sensor, so no auto brightness.... Pretty responsive, light, good viewing angles although not the best screen....

  • These specifications mention stereo speakers and it certainly looks like it, judging by the holes on the back. However, I noticed that sound only comes out from the left (right if looking at the device from the back) opening. After examining this a little more (but without disassembling the device), I believe the other opening does not actually have a speaker behind it. Can anyone confirm this? You can try holding e.g. an iron paperclip over the openings and check if there is any attraction.

  • thank you captain. who would've though.

  • better than another cheap one..but blue a little weired..

  • this is low end tablet

  • Apparently it will be snapdragon 200 1.2 GHz, and 1 gig of ram. Also, 1.3 and 3.2 mp cameras. Pretty low end? I think 8.0 and 10.1 will be the same.

  • look like the 7inch is for the affortable market.

  • Give me a million and i buy -_- go buy Oneplus One :D its not as much as big :D

  • No, he does not.

  • Don't you want flowers in the package too?

  • Give me a 8mpx camera, 3gb ram and snapdragon 801 with a $250-300 price tag and I'll buy it
