Update (11/09/2024 at 5:11 PM PST): We previously reported that the device had a 512GB model option, but this was incorrect. According to the official product listing, only the 256GB model is available in the country. We mistakenly relied on the marketing materials that indicated a 512GB option. We apologize for any confusion this may have caused.
