14 DAY TRIAL // LG hasn’t rolled out its G Pad 8.3 tablet for long, but it appears the company is hard at work to produce another slate, maybe a successor to their current product. Or maybe not.
A mysterious device bearing the code name LG-V510 has been spotted in the Bluetooth Certification database, says GSMInsider. LG filed the listing on October 25.
What’s interesting is that the current G Pad 8.3 bares the model number LG-V500, very similar to the one recently spotted. So it’s possible that the two might be related in some sort of way. There are two theories covering to the matter at question.
The first one says that the mysterious filing represents the LTE variant of the LG G Pad 8.3. The other one goes a little further and claims that the model is actually the upcoming Nexus 8, which uses as a blueprint the same G Pad 8.3 slate.
Back in July, the Nexus 8 was rumored to be arriving this fall and to be manufactured by Asus. We also saw a purported render of the tablet, but when it comes to rumors, everything has to be taken with a grain of salt. Regardless of what LG-V510 turns out to be, we’ll keep you posted.
