BTW, the SPen's handwriting recognition is EXCELLENT. I have extremely bad handwriting yet it's still accurate in recognizing the letters!

May I ask you a thing, did you updated your Note 2 to the latest firmware? Kasi ito ang pansin ko dyan. Nung bago ang Note 2 ko, I can last up to almost 3 days on standby. Pero nung nag-update ako to 4.1.2, nagsimula siyang maging matakaw sa battery. From almost 3 days to almost 2 days nalang ang battery ko on standby.

Nope. I have not done anything to my Note 2. all stock pa. hehe. Except for GoSMS.

Na addict ata ako sa high tech phone, sabi ng friends ko I am becoming autistic. Ayaw na din nila pumunta sa lugar na may wifi kasi hindi na naman ako makakausap

I need advise on the memory card. Microsdhc ba kailangan ko? The phone did not come with a manual kasi

Can I buy 64 gb or okay na 32 gb?

Get a Sandisk Extreme 32GB microSDHC class 10 para mabilis.

If you a fond of taking pictures and video, best to get the 64 gb. 10 minutes of full HD video is already more than 1 gb.

yan pa lamang ng NOte II sa iP5, expandable memory storage.

I don't take much pictures, and when I do, I transfer it agad sa PC.

What's the memory card for ba? Only for pictures and videos? I thought of getting one so I could store all the apps there. I don't want my phone to become slow once I start having more apps.

Also, where can I buy it here and how much would a 32 gb or 64 gb card cost me? DIgital walker doesn't have one available. I also checked CDR king, and I found the prices too low na I'm doubtful of the quality.

You don't need that much ung 64GB kung apps lang. Maliliit lang size ng apps except for some gaming apps. Personally i have use Transcend and Sandisk ne memory card so far okay naman.

If you're around Greenhills, I would suggest ABACUS at the 3rd floor V-MALL. As usual, choose class 10 SD-cards. CDRKING only have class 4 or 6 which are much slower to read/write.

IMO, wag kang bibili ng memory cards na binebenta ng CDR-King unless branded (TDK, Kingston). Kung may microSDHC na Ridata, stay away from it. Tsaka karamihan ng micro SDHC nila ay mga class 4 lang. Get class 10 para mas mabilis mag-write ng data at mas mabilis mag-read ng data.
