The connection between AI-assisted activities and home printing

Background:

Home printers have been declining in market penetration and usage for years. Before the pandemic, adults worldwide relied less on home computers or home printers and more on smartphones, tablets, or, for some of the employed, work computers and work printers. With the onset of the pandemic, many employees, students, and parents turned to home printers to get their work or schooling done. Recent widespread attention to AI holds the promise of a home printing resurgence as early adopters tap into their creativity or learning using AI tools, potentially sparking renewed interest in printing their creations.

Approach:

MetaFacts surveyed 12,032 online adults in the US, Germany, UK, and Japan as part of its annual TUP/Technology User Profile 2024 study. Within the survey, along with detailing the home printers respondents regularly use, we have them report about their printing activities. They also detail the activities they regularly do with their connected devices and those they do with assistance from an AI tool. Additionally, we assess their attitudes about AI’s ability to help them be more creative or productive.

Tablets – Highlights

Tablets continue to seek a solid home, major use cases, and most vital segments. Currently, the largest groups of users are passive, older, or entrenched in the Apple or Google ecosystem. While Apple continues to lead and increase its share, other makers like Samsung are seeing withering penetration. Incidental and passive activities from web browsing, shopping, movie-watching, and checking email haven’t been unique enough on tablets to entice users away from their smartphones or computers.
This TUP Highlights report includes the following sections: the profile of tablet users, trends in tablets, top tablet brands, top tablet activities, unique tablet activities, and trends in technology ecosystems.

Highlights: Wearables, Hearables, Listening & Speaking

Entertainment, communication, and smart homes have all evolved beyond requiring typing on a keyboard or sitting near PC speakers. Wearable and hearables have extended a broad range of audible activities further towards a more personal convenience. However, active usage of any wearables or hearables has varied considerably across market segments. While Bluetooth headphones are widespread, VR headsets persist as niche products among a younger, more affluent, and tech-savvy segment. Smart speakers, in contrast, are showing signs of having peaked after rising in use among a middle market.
This TUP Highlights report includes the following sections: wearables penetration, hearables penetration, wearable devices used, trends in wearables and hearables, purchase plans for wearables, listening activities, penetration of voice assistant usage, the profile of voice assistant users, the profile of hearables users, and the profile of wearables users.
