Where's the IR port???

---

In the UK, just bought a galaxy tab 2 7.0 after reading reviews galore, bit annoyed to find no IR port at all!!

Is it because its a UK version?

Also, i dunno if anyone else has the same problem but i can't get google+ to update, gmail to update, nor can i download facebook app either ?!?

Is it just me?

sounds like you got a knock-off of it and not a genuine tab. Or possibly not the tab 2.

what is the model number listed in settings?

Not so, it's was from carphone warehouse, it's genuine alright, but i expect it's cos it's a UK version or summat. Also, changing connection sorted the downloads out. Which is odd, cos i have two other android devices that work fine with my home network.

model number from settings?

everything ive read says only the previous tab 7 had a no IR blaster variant. 2.0 doesnt have a model without it.

okay, yes it seems the 3110 does not have the ir port but the us variant 3113 does. sorry, trying to search fast cuz im at work :/

Bummer! Would have found that useful!!

Cheers for clearing that up tho

It appears only the us models have the ir blaster. I also bought the device based on the reviews, as the manual is not included, samsung should make a spec change like this clear. Still i love the tablet.

Yup, gotta be honest, for the wedge, it's great. Only thing lacking is the camera but i really don't think I'll be using it anyway.
