LG Electronics said Monday it released a new tablet PC with improved portability, which supports the long-term evolution network connectivity.

The South Korean tech giant said the 290-gram G Pad IV 8.0 FHD LTE can be considered "as light as a can of soda," making the device especially suitable for women and teenagers. The company said the 8-inch display also makes it easier for users to carry the product in hand bags and pockets.
