LG G Pad 8.3
Will you hop to the Pad?

Large (sort of) and in charge, LG is finally unleashing its answer to the iPad mini upon unsuspecting US dwellers - but you'll need to head to the Best Buy website if you want to be among the first to get your hands on it.

LG announced today the US availability of the LG G Pad 8.3, which the company is marketing as the "perfect companion" for an Android smartphone.

Best Buy pre-orders

LG teamed up with Best Buy to launch the G Pad 8.3, and the retailer will exclusively offer the tablet on its website for the next couple of weeks.

Starting Sunday, Nov. 3, the G Pad 8.3 will be available in Best Buy retail stores nationwide, with other as-yet-unnamed retailers promised in the weeks after.

The US release date comes 10 days after LG announced it would begin shipping the smaller tablet to its South Korean home turf starting October 14 .

Available in black or white, the LG G Pad 8.3 is now available to pre-order from BestBuy.com for $349.99.
