South Korean multinational conglomerate LG might be out of the smartphone business but it just released a new Android tablet in its home market. The LG Ultra Tab is an Android 12 tablet with a 10.35-inch IPS LCD, Snapdragon 680 SoC and a 7,040mAh battery. The IPS LCD packs a resolution of 2000 x 1200 pixels and a 5:3 aspect ratio with a 60Hz refresh rate. There are four speakers on the sides of the display and LG is also bringing Wacom stylus support. Users also get a 5-megapixel selfie camera up front and an 8-megapixel main camera with autofocus on the back.

The LG Ultra Tab comes in a single Charcoal Gray colour and retails for KRW 4,26,000 (roughly Rs. 26,000). Open sales in South Korea are underway though it remains to be seen if more markets will get the device, as per GSM Arena.
