    Samsung Galaxy 2 7"

    I bought this tablet lthis month and i have to say what a nice little tablet, i was very happy untill i look at the storage space, if you buy one keep in mind you only have 4.48 GB of storage space and not the 8 that it says on the box, (AND NO THERE ISNT A HIDDEN COMPARTMENT LIKE CARPHONEWARE HOUSE SAYS)

    To the mods here on boards also please do not delete this comment as i think people have a right to know what they are buying and samsung have lied about the actual storage space really ion it.

    This ISa great device i would easily recommend it but i would have preferred to buy 16gb version. I would advise you t buy a 16 gb or 32 gb card that im sure CPWH sell in store. 7/10 is my score

    No they haven't, it comes with 8GB storage but where do you think it's going to have to hold the operating system?

    If you feel you were mis-sold an item not as described just bring it back and get a refund.

    the fact is i have a 32GB card and this little machine works just fine i just wish it said 4GB on the box not 8GB so if any one is actually expecting 8 they wont be getting it

    Every device is sold like this Tony. 16gb iphones only have about 12gb storage. Even computer hard drives do not make all their hdd space available to you. This is a very common happening (albeit frustrating) so I wouldn't be worrying about it.
