NPS

Survey

A recent smartphone survey conducted by NUMR uncovered the NPS® or Net Promoter Score® for various smartphone brands in India.  Considering the numerous smartphone choices available to the consumers, customer satisfaction becomes extremely important.

Therefore, given below is the NPS of all major brands.

NPS® (Smartphone Brands in India)

As shown above, One Plus and Xiaomi, both have a high NPS of 77.78 and 66.15 respectively. Interestingly, they also registered extremely high growth last year. One Plus grew 3 times, at 296% and Xiaomi grew 174%.

According to the survey, Apple has an NPS of 67.93 and Samsung’s NPS came out to be 63.35. Surprisingly, Oppo recorded an NPS of 83.78

This fiercely competitive market now has multiple products at every imaginable price point. In this environment, the NPS score helps in predicting who will win the war. With Oppo leading the way with 84% NPS score, world leaders like Samsung and Apple are left to lick their wounds in their ever decreasing market share pie

Furthermore, Numr Research also uncovered the digital habits of Indian smartphone users.

QUESTION

A study estimated that more than 161 million smartphones were sold in India in 2018.

However, 52% claimed to have only 1.

And, another 5% reported having 3 personal smartphones while 1% claimed that they have 4 and/or more.

Numr Research also concluded that Indians spend over 6.5 hours every day on their smartphones. This isn’t surprising in the least, considering India has the highest average data consumption per user in the world, around 9.8 GB per month.

According to the result,

  • People spend over an hour each on Online Shopping (64 min), Social Media (67 min), and watching movies/ videos (69 min)
  • On an average, they spend 56 min on phone calls and video calls every day
  • 43 minutes are spent listening to music daily
  • Texting (Messengers and WhatsApp) occupy another 41 minutes on average, and
  • People reported that they also spend around 30 minutes every day reading articles or online news

According to IDC, despite a global slowdown of 6%, the smartphone market in India grew by 7.1%. It is undeniable that the Indian smartphone market is thriving and customer satisfaction will play a huge role in which brand comes out at the top.

*NPS® or Net Promoter Score® is a metric for calculating customer satisfaction and loyalty. It is a proven indicator of Growth. In fact, it is based off a single question, which is, “On a scale of 0-10, how likely are you to recommend (a company or a service) to you friends, family or colleagues?” Customers who give a score of 6 or less are called Detractors. Those who give 7 or 8 are Passives where as those who give 9 or 10 are Promoters. Then, the NPS is calculated by subtracting the percentage of Detractors from the Promoters.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
