E-readers and tablets · Palma
Owners keep it for how much it changes their reading: people who used to stall out find themselves finishing dozens, sometimes hundreds, of books a year.
Owners consistently say the Palma 2 pulled them out of screen time and back into regular reading, with many describing daily reading habits and rising yearly book counts once they had it. Overall satisfaction with owning it is also uniformly positive among those who raised it.
Customer support is the clearest complaint: most owners who brought it up described frustrating or unhelpful experiences trying to get issues resolved.
Pick up to three. You get a page with just those, side by side, on the subjects owners raised.
Once the novelty wears off, the device settles into daily use rather than staying a novelty. Owners describe reading during commutes, chores, work downtime, and before bed, treating it as a replacement for phone scrolling rather than a special-occasion gadget. Font customization and font size preference come up often as small things people configured once and then stopped thinking about, which owners are largely happy with.
Screen size and app usability are the areas people are split on. Some like the size for portability and find the reading app fine as-is; others find the screen small for their needs or run into friction with syncing and app features, occasionally switching to alternative reading software to get more control. These aren't universal complaints, but they're common enough that expectations should be set going in rather than discovered later.
Device longevity comes up positively more often than not, with owners describing units that keep working well after months of regular use. Build quality is more mixed: some owners are satisfied with how the device holds up physically, while others have run into issues, so it lands as a split rather than a clear pass.
Battery life is genuinely divided. A good number of owners are happy with how long it lasts between charges, but a similar number describe battery performance falling short of expectations over time. Long-term accounts on battery degradation specifically are limited in what's been raised so far, so treat the battery picture as still filling in rather than settled.
Counted from the owners who raised each subject, not from everyone. A subject is judged once at least 4 owners raise it.
36 more subjects came up from fewer than 4 owners each, which is not enough for a fair reading. To see how it stacks up, compare it with another machine.
