9 Ways You Used Palm in 2019
2019 was a big year for Palm. It was our first full calendar year in existence, and we had a lot of fun growing the brand and making Palm available all over the world. As more and more people turned to Palm as a new type of mobile experience, the #PalmCrew grew faster than we ever imagined.
We were really interested to see how Palm owners were actually using their phone in 2019. We sent out a customer survey to hear what you had to say, and we got some pretty interesting responses. Of course, we wanted to share it with you, so, here’s how you used Palm in 2019:
Who You Bought Palm For
Most people bought Palm for themselves (about 90%), but about 10% bought Palm for a family member or a child. But, with all of the holidays deals we have going on, we’ve made it easy to give the gift of Palm this holiday season.
How You Use Palm
About 60% of you use Palm as a primary device, and about 40% use it as a companion device to a larger smartphone.
