According to the poster, the Galaxy Note Pro 12.2 will retail here in the Philippines for a whopping Php 36,990. And before you ask, the version that’s hitting our shores is the WiFi only Exynos 5 Octa version, so no LTE on board. We’ll admit that the price is a bit steep, but then again, you’ll be getting a 12.2-inch WQXGA display, as well as a stylus and access to Samsung’s numerous Note-specific software for your creative needs. Not to mention it’ll be one of the few Android devices that ships with KitKat on board. It’s overall size and high price tag means it won’t be for everyone, but for people hankering for a big-ass tablet to write and draw on, the Galaxy Note PRO 12.2 may just be the ticket.
