The European version of the LG G Pad 8.3 is beginning to receive a new update that incorporates the most recent version of the Android operating system: Android 4.4.2 KitKat. This is an important update given that until now the owners of this terminal had to settle for the version of Android 4.2 Jelly Bean, which meant significant limitations when downloading and installing more modern applications. Let's also remember that, at the end of last year, the LG G Pad 8.3 Google Play edition already received this same update.
But focusing on the universal version of this terminal - after all, it is the most popular version, since it is the one that any user can purchase in stores - we must emphasize that this new update brings improvements both at the interface and at the terminal operating level. On the one hand, the visual innovations focus on the operating system interface: the notification bar is now transparent, while the icons of the applications installed as standard have undergone small changes aimed at modernizing their design. Let's not forget the lock screen either, which has been completely renewed in order to offer easier access to the terminal applications.
As regards performance improvements, the Android 4.4.2 KitKat update for the LG G Pad 8.3 introduces greater fluidity in the terminal. In this way, users can now move between applications in a more fluid way. In principle, this update should also serve to offer a small increase in the battery life of the device.
Users who want to check if they can already download the update just have to follow these steps:
- First we must navigate to the Settings application to enter it.
- A device configuration screen will open where we must click on the option with the name " About the device ". From here we can check the version of the operating system that we have installed, and if we click on the " Update " option, the terminal will automatically update the operating system in the event that there is a file available for download.
Recall that the LG G Pad 8.3 is a device that incorporates a screen of 8.3 inches with a resolution of 1,920 x 1,200 pixels.
