New Delhi: Days after Samsung showcased its Galaxy Note 2 tablet at the IFA event in Berlin, the S Cloud service of the Korean giant has now been revealed by a German website called the Bestboys.de.

The S Cloud storage service has been integrated as an integral part of the Galaxy Note II and will be available to users globally with the device.

While there is a slew of cloud storage services already available in the market, Samsung's move to present a new cloud storage service exclusive for its devices is definitely a good for the customers. While coming from the device manufacturer itself, users can be rest assured that there will not be any expiration date on the cloud services. Besides, there could be additional security features that might come with the device itself.
