LTE enabled LG G Pad now available from Verizon in 7-inch and 10-inch varieties

Just in time for the holidays, Verizon is offering the LG G Pad with a 7-inch or 10.1-inch display. The former is priced at $249.99 sans contract, or $49.99 with a signed two-year pact. The latter model is $299.99 off-contract, and $199.99 with your John Hancock affixed to the dotted line of a 2-year contrract. Both models share the same resolution of 1280 x 800. A quad-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon 400 CPU powers both slates, and both models are equipped with 1GB of RAM and 16GB of native storage.

The 7-inch model is XLTE enabled. It also features a 3MP snapper on back and a 1.3MP camera up front. On the 10.1-inch slate, the rear camera is 5MP. Another difference is the capacity of the battery that powers each tablet. A 4000mAh cell is included with the smaller screened LG G Pad 7.0, while the LG G Pad 10.1 is powered by a 8000mAh capacity battery. Both tablets feature LTE connectivity, and the Q Pair app allows owners of either tablet to pair it with the LG G3 or any handset running Android 4.1 or higher. Dual Window allows users to run two apps at the same time, and the Smart Keyboard lets you customize the QWERTY keyboard to make it easier to type. Along with the LG G Pad 8.3, Verizon now has an LG tablet that meets the screen-size requirement of everybody.

The nation's largest carrier is also giving away some free data. Those customers on a More Everything Plan who register for Connection Day on November 26th, will receive 1GB of data to share through the end of their billing cycle. They will also receive another 1GB of data to share for the next billing cycle as well. On Connection Day, Verizon will be offering some free goodies including a special iTunes deal to be revealed on November 26th. Amazon will be offering 10 free or discounted apps, and Pandora will be giving away free seven-day trials of Pandora One.
