LG G Pad X 10.1 heads to AT&T this week

[Justin Herrick]

This Friday, AT&T will be adding another tablet to its deep lineup of devices. The LG G Pad X 10.1 will be available to customers online on September 4 before reaching retail stores a week later.


Key specifications:

• 10.1 inch Full HD (1920×1080) display
• Quad-core processor clocked at 2.26GHz
• 32GB of internal storage with a microSD card slot
• 7400mAh battery

Corporate synergy is in effect with the G Pad X 10.1 as the DirecTV app is pre-installed. The app offers quick access to DirecTV’s programming guide and streaming catalog. AT&T’s acquisition of the TV provider closed in July, likely meaning that many devices to come will also have the DirecTV app pre-installed.

While the two-year contract price is $249, AT&T lowers the cost to $17.50 per month for twenty months through its installment plan.
