    Thanks everyone! I think I'll get the Note 2

    Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100 16GB Grey Price: P 27,999

    Samsung Galaxy Note II GT-N7100 16GB Grey | VillMan Computers

    I won't get a data plan yet since I'm not into social networking naman (fb, twitter, instagram) so I don't need to be online all the time. I also heard a lot of problems re Globe's data plans (billing error etc)

    ^I just noticed that you use a Note 2

    Would you know where I could buy casings? Is the Otterbox a good casing?

    Try Gizmoshield (do a search in Facebook).
    If you're in the Ortigas area, try to visit this store called, Cyberlynx in St. Francis Square.

    RE: Otterbox
    Only use this if you think you're clumsy enough to drop your phone.
    Yes, it does a good job at protecting your phone but it just looks ...er... ugly.
    But that's just me.
    I suggest you go for a flip case.

    Thanks!

    The Otterbox is ugly nga but I'm very clumsy and I do drop my phone a lot. I wish I could find a case that's cute but still protects the phone.

    The phone will cost more than my laptop (27k) But I really trust the opinion of our members and I expect this phone to last me a long time.

    otterbox is bulky and thick and EXPENSIVE IMO.

    There are cheaper case which can also protect you phone against drop.

    maiba lang, diba S4 malapit narin lumabas?

    Jellycase, it is bro...

    But I guess they prefer the otterbox because it offers various (bright) colors....lookers..

    Plus,- easy to identify in a mound of items in a lady's bag...

    You can try Greenbelt 1 near the theaters there. Or the stores around the 3rd floor of Glorietta 2 that used to be in Parksquare 1.

    Yep. The engineers at Samsung worked so hard to design a nice, thin body for your Note2. It would be a shame to cover it up under 2mm of rubber+silicone.

    Alternatively, you can consider this: Samsung Galaxy Note II Skin

    Incidentally, pumasok yung officemate ko. Akala ko may hawak siyang VHS cassette. Yun pala, iPAD MINI na naka otterbox. :D

    pwede lagyan ng transparent screen protector all over the phone (front + back +side) para hindi magasgasan.
