I'm pretty sure Gnome Disks reports in GB, not GiB. Either the discrepancy is GiB vs GB, or it's accounting for overprovisioning. Presumably somewhere on the box or documentation they say this, or I think they'd get into trouble for false advertising and this isn't their first day at the rodeo when it comes to that so it seems doubtful they'd want to do it all over again.
